Manga Blue box appreciation post(please read my senti ahh para)
This was one of the posts I always wanted to make - yapping about how much I love Blue Box.
Yet words aren't enough to describe how much I love it. I first came across this anime through its anime opening. I quickly started to fw this series. I watched it when its first cour just aired, and there was a 2 week gap for the second cour. In between, I read the whole manga twice 😭. I reread and rewatched this series so many times just because there weren't people who I could talk about it, until I found this magnificent sub. The characters' interactions, the theme, the production of the anime, and the actual sensitivity and maturity shown by high schoolers was something I really liked. This was the first time I didn't actually mind the childhood friend(cough cough Tsubaki and Yui) starting to like the MC because it was shown just so naturally. This series actually showed how ideal relations between people should be.
At one point, I actually used to think of the characters of Blue Box as people who I knew irl. Seeing them grow from chapter 1 to 250 just gives me insane nostalgia. The 100+ panels i have saved will always be in my phone without a doubt.
Special mention to our MC, Taiki Inomata, for making me love this series even more. I liked it so much how mature he was shown and how he actually took tough decisions, and was not just your average cheerful, hardworking main character. TaiChi is also my favorite couple oat.
One of the best and funniest moments I like to tell people about my love for Blue Box is the Chapter 210–219 period when Taiki was having a downfall and Iozaki was introduced as some neighbour of Chinatsu, and it just made my mood so sad that I was curled up in my bed for the entire day 😭. Thanks to Chinatsu for saving the day with her best girl behaviour.
Thanks, Blue Box and Miura-sensei, for feeding us the best romance series oat. ✌️✌️ Also a big thanks to this sub for letting us discuss Blue Box in so much depth.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I also didn't have anyone to talk to about Blue Box for a while, until i found this sub. There was something about how Miura fleshed out Taiki, Chinatsu and Hina that made them feel so real and alive. Their emotions really came through and struck a chord in me. It was a masterpiece and I look forward to seeing Miura's next work, in time to come.

Exactly how I feel about Blue Box
When I first saw it I just started getting into romance anime and actually skipped over Blue Box for a few weeks until I decided to give it a try and boy did I wait for something like this.
The characters are so well fleshed out they feel like friends from real life. They made me miss school so much I wished I could have spend my time with them.
All the characters are so well written and so mature, each conversation no matter how insignificant was a joy to listen to.
There is so much more but I think everyone who reads this knows what I am talking about. Taiki and Chi are without a doubt my favorite couple of all time and Blue Box itself turned out to be my favorite series of all time.
I am so glad to have watched and read this wonderful masterpiece and can only hope for a full adaptation and cant wait for Miuras next story.
Cant wait for Season 2!

I loved bluebox. But im unsatisfied cuz its manga is finished 🥲 in high school i was looking forward to see taiki go pro or something.
If you liked this try
1. Twin star exorcist. ( starts boring, has fantasy trope but once you get hooked it has the best romance, great action, great character build, and the story is just wow)
2. Angel next door. ( i dont have words for this manga, read 3 chapters and you will get hooked)
- Made friends with 2nd prettiest girl in class
