school boy crushing on a friend in class. Kono Saki wa Futarikiri de is very wholesome with a lot of cute scenes. (be warned: there is a short smut scene that can easily be skipped and holds no plot). the characters were funny and there was very little drama so it was mostly wholesome fluff all around.

Ero Yume Aquarium

Ero Yume Aquarium

I, Hiroto Yuri, have apparently become a pervert. Lately, I keep seeing erotic dreams where sea creatures are playing with me. And all while Ogasawara-kun, the marine biology nerd, watches me! I honestly didn’t understand all of his geeky sea creature talk at first. But… I’ve always tried to act “normal” by hiding the fact that I’m gay, so I became attracted to how he’s true to himself and doesn’t care about what other people think. When I realized that I liked him, my dreams became even more obscene, and I even got aroused at the aquarium… What the hell is happening to me…!?

I feel as if both of these share a lighthearted and wholesome feel, and a lot of similar Im terrible at explaining what I mean but I think these manga are both really great.

Both stories take us through a funny and witty romance. Well, not a real romance in both (Nakamura is more focused on the jokes and ravings of its protagonist), but funny and well done in both series.

The main difference between these two stories is that while Nakamura has an old roncom style in art and premise, resembling classics like Ranma 1/2, Mix-Up is more like a modern shoujo romance with a touch of comedy, such as Skip and Loafer.

What they both have is a charismatic cast, development and a story worth to read.

Ranma 1/2

Ranma 1/2

Ranma, raised to be a man among men, has a bit of a problem: he is half woman! While training in China he fell into a strange magic spring at Jusenkyo. Now, he is eternally cursed to change into a beautiful woman whenever he is hit by cold water, but that may be the least of his problems; his father has betrothed him to marry! There's never a dull day for Ranma as he attempts to find a cure for his curse, train to become stronger, and grapple with the fact that half of himself may be more feminine than his fiancée!

I think they both have similar art styles and jokes. Despite the unconsummated romance, the episodic style in its narratives, the nonsense and innocent dynamics in its story, made this recommendation a good opportunity to enjoy Nakamura's vibe in a richer universe like Ranma's.
