Kimi ni Todoke or Reaching You in english is a manga about a girl named Sawako who doesn't know how to interact with people and is always alone for a reason that resulted to her being known as "Sadako" which is, of course, as everyone knows, the very same character from The Ring. Why do you think so? Well, she actually has this very long black, silky hair that she hides her face with, she rarely speaks, she has a very scary aura and rumors make everything even more exaggerated than it actually is. Amidst all this, Sawako deep inside desires to be able to reach out to people and to talk to them. She doesn't have any friends btw and she wants to have some. With this, she starts admiring her classmate, Kazehaya, who seem to brighten the class' mood everytime he speaks. As the story develops, Kazehaya starts to help out Sawako to realize the things she want to do which is to have friends and interact with people.
This manga is very nice and has a certain subtlety that just makes me want to read it even though I don't get too excited over stuff and it's not something you laugh so hard with. This is a serious manga but with some hint of humor in it. You'll love reading this manga as the story develops. The art is also pretty decent. Overall, I would recommend this manga for anyone who wants a good read when they don't have anything else to do, that is. Right now, I definitely would recommend this since the most recent scanlated chapters is getting my heart jump right out of my body!!!!!! I don’t know!!!! OMG!!!! I’m just loving this manga more and more!!!!!
