Rent-A-Girlfriend 1 (RENT A GIRLFRIEND GN)

It's a great idea for a story. The MC is a typical guy that finds himself in an unusual situation and just keeps digging himself a bigger hole.The characters are complex but recognisable so it feels like a proper slice of life with that uncertainty over what'll come next.The art style is great, plenty of detail to take in. I really enjoyed it and read the book in only a few sittings which is unusual for me, I'd normally just read one chapter at a time.Gonna start reading the next one tomorrow!

Very good manga! I enjoyed reading it thank you ^^

This book is just as good as the anime with some more detail here and there, i can really relate to the MC so this book vibes with me.Its really good!next volume beachhhhhhhh!!! ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°

I really enjoyed this manga , i bought this after watching the first episode of the anime and i am so happy i started the source material

My teenage daughter found this series by chance and loves it xoxo

Really nice book but the cover is back to front? Is it supposed to be ?

It has alot more information than the anime but that's pretty obvious, amazing artwork and overall its perfect

Great story overall

Esta muy bien que esta de romance drama y un buen dibujo de esto y yo me ríe de esto algunas veces no puedo esperar que mi otro de esto llegue a mi casa para leer el 2 parte de la manga

I watched the anime back when it first released, but the Rent a Girlfriend manga has to be the same amount of appeal as the anime. I haven't boughten any other volumes but the first one was really good

The quality is 10/10 , firstly I received little damaged product but the seller quickly and hassle free sent a replacement and I loved that !

Beautifully presented and designed

For those of you questioning the title, yes, there really is such a thing as the "Rent-a-Girlfriend" service. It's a real job and real men and women work it/use this type of service.Now for this story: (Spoiler free/synopsis)Our main character is a typical male, Kazuya, who is undergoing his college studies while also trying to mature emotionally. We find him in the aftermath of a breakup and he is very depressed. Ex-GF blocked you on social media and won't communicate with you at all? Yeah, it hits you with that at the start. To get over it and move on, he turns to a rent-a-gf service and meets the main heroine, Chizuru Mizuhara who is really good at her job. That's the thing though, it is her job and as we all know it, it's an act. She's being paid legally to be his girlfriend for certain time limits (dates). However, when Kazuya's family figures out he has a girlfriend, it kinda goes hilariously downhill when reality blends with what isn't exactly real. And what happens when on one of their "rent-a-gf" dates, Kazuya's real friends encounter them and the awkward questions are thrown in the air?Thoughts about the characters:Chizuru turns out to be one of the realistic and most serious female characters when Kazuya breaks through her idolistic and sweet-faced demeanor. Sure, you can rent a girlfriend, but can money buy love? Very big question right there. In my opinion, I think she is super skilled. She is definitely smart, professional, and is surprisingly down-to-earth.Kazuya as the main male lead is ALL TOO RELATABLE. Ever had a friend who was always pining for their ex-girlfriends/boyfriends? Wasn't mature enough to move on? Only makes hasty decisions and gets into a lot of awkward situations? Typical manga/anime male lead protaganist of course. But as I read this series, I totally get him and also understand his patterns. Even though this series' relationship toxicity levels are portrayed quite accurately, Kazuya undergoes a story of interesting development which is probably why I want to know what happens next.Definitely for young adults/adults only. Although there is no sex, there are implied adult scenes with the main character when he is alone in the privacy of his apartment. Especially when he has thoughts about his ex with someone else. It's his imagination of course. Nothing graphic or anything. The college students and adults in the story are all quite common, funny, and bring about nice ways for the plot to progress. Remember, the Rent-A-Girlfriend service depicted here is NOT a sex service. It is a service designed for people to seek friendship, companionship or the company of someone who can provide the "girlfriend/boyfriend" experience.If you want romance, kinda, then sure, it is here. Comedy? Oh yeah, definitely. Realism? This is probably one of the first series I've encountered that isn't a perfect-happy-dreamland. It portrays toxic relationships, depression, finding the way to move on, and a few hilarious sketches that can only happen in manga/anime. I do recommend for anyone that wants an interesting story and also to get away from fantasy elements or the sci-fi action genre.
