Kiss Him, Not Me

Kiss Him, Not Me

Hi there! My name is Serinuma Kae. I’m the kind of girl who loves checking out boys and fantasizing about them getting friendly (and more) with each other—I’m what you might call a fujoshi. One day, my beloved (yes, he’s an anime character) died, and the shock of it all was more than I could have ever prepared for! My grief over his passing resulted in some ridiculous weight loss! And you won’t believe what happened next! Soon after my change, the four most divinely gorgeous boys in my school asked me out on dates! I accepted them all, and you’d think I’d be happy with my sudden popularity, but the truth is, my heart only yearns for a prince to be next to his prince. Ahh, yes, boys, I’d much prefer that you turn your affections elsewhere and kiss him, not me!

Both Mori no Takuma-san and Kiss Him Not Me focuses on main characters who's weight changes back and forth from overweight to slim.

In Mori No Takuma-San its the guy who's weight fluctuates, and in Kiss Him Not Me its the main female who's weight changes.

Both are comedy, and both have very unrealistic drastic weight changes, but they are cute and lovabable.

Both mangas address how some characters struggle to see the past the physique. However, the conclusion is similar as they find partners that are able to love them, and at the same time feel happy for who they are.

In both mangas the main male characters do not meet societies popular opinon on what is attractive as what most media portrays (A slim guy, with a "nice" physique, and so on). So in the manga, some people do not believe they will win over the main female character's heart. However, both main male characters are charming, sweet, caring, loving, kindhearted, and with huge jackets (hahaha). These qualities enable them to charm their suitors and have a happy ending.

Indeed, quite similar, but I think the story of My Love Story is more deep than Mori No Takuma-San.
