Hitomi-chan is Shy With Strangers Vol. 1

Product Information

While the premise has been done to death in many other manga, Hitomi-chan has a certain charm of its own. The character design of the MC is pretty unique and likable. The overall art and other character designs are hit or miss most of the time though. Moore, Caitlin (February 16, 2022). "Hitomi-chan is Shy With Strangers GN 1 - Review". Anime News Network.

Chorisuke Natsumi's art bears a noticeable resemblance to Kiyohiko Azuma's own, particularly in how he draws faces and especially with Yuu. Hitomi is something like a more extreme version of Sakaki, who appears tough due to her height and taciturn nature, but is really just shy and loves cute things. Although this is definitely an established character type by now, and not strictly confined to Azumanga Daioh, certain jokes, like Hitomi's failed attempts at befriending neighborhood cats, seem lifted straight from the older series. The gags are even paced like a four-panel comic, even though the format is that of a typical manga – looser and more freeform. Tall and busty high school girl Takano Hitomi has shark teeth, a looming presence, and an intense facial expression. However, looks can be deceiving. Beneath her imposing frame and piercing glare, Hitomi-chan is a sweet first-year student who just wants to overcome her social anxiety and make some friends. Enter Usami Yuu, a second-year boy who is shorter than Hitomi but not put off by her intimidating looks. A friendship blossoms--and maybe more! Don't miss this charming romcom between a scary-but-sweet girl and her smaller, loving senpai.

It's a good thing the characters are so likable and the tone lightly humorous because this series is nothing but a string of manga tropes with big boobs fan service. We’re also getting a nicely expanded supporting cast that gives everything a boost. The extremely extra theatre teacher makes a great addition and her zeal for costumes reminds me of how extra the drama club teacher was in my high school to a tee. Hitomi is a short girl that shares the same big beady eyes as her older brother and makes similar expressions. She is shorter and skinnier than Tadano, but otherwise very similar, and wears her medium-length hair in two short twin tails. When Najimi, Komi and Yamai visit the Tadano's home on the last day of summer to study, Hitomi greets them and thanks them for hanging out with her brother. She is confused at Najimi's apparent change in gender, and wonders if Yamai is Tadano's girlfriend, but is most perplexed by Komi, and drags her brother out into the hall, incredulous that he managed to convince Komi to visit. She hangs with the group as they study, and brings them drinks to share [3]. Digital goods, open DVDs and Blu-rays, smart art prints, mystery bundles, and final sale items are excluded from the return policy.Usa's sister, Koaru, is from the same room as Hitomi, however, Koaru has a huge fetish for Hitomi's voluminous and strong body, including her strong yet soft abdomen Pineda, Rafael Antonio (May 19, 2021).

We also have a great stable of supporting characters now - the ridiculously cosplay-positive teacher makes several reappearances that just happen to allow for some fan service, and the gaggle of delinquents are still causing trouble, mainly for themselves.

Hitomi briefly visits Tadano's school maid cafe, as she had some free time, no sooner had she entered she saw Tadano in a maid outfit. Slightly unnerved, she snaps a picture of him and promptly leaves, phoning their mum, declaring that he really is "like that" (presumably transgender, or otherwise non-standard). She later uploaded that photo to the cloud, so it could exist forever [4]. Comic Natalie (in Japanese). Natasha, Inc. May 20, 2020. Archived from the original on December 28, 2022 .

Yes, there are jokes about her chest size. There’s one dud involving a catsuit that is just ridiculous and definitely reminds me of the lame jokes from the first volume, but a lot of them are clever. The entire relay race is just great. It’s really got the balance of fan service to other jokes pretty much spot on at this point.

Tadano suggests that Komi go into a clothes store with Hitomi, as they're both girls, who recommends a cardigan [5].

If there’s one thing that really injects pure joy into my veins, it’s a good running gag and the absolutely stupid roasted sweet potatoes bit that keeps showing up throughout the volume and escalates more and more every single time had me in stitches. It’s so, so dumb, but the concept and execution are absolutely perfect.

To keep up the cosplay trope, a teacher introduced last volume is now a recurring character who ensures all the rest of the characters always have season-appropriate costumes available.
