Honey Lemon Soda VS. Kimi Ni Todoke

While recently watching Honey Lemon Soda, I noticed lots of aspects similar to another anime I've watched called Kimi Ni Todoke. I wanted to share the similarities in hopes of finding others who have taken notice of this as well.

First and foremost, I want to preface this by stating that I'm not implying one copies the other.

Now, I believe it's best to start with some general facts about each manga series.

"Kimi ni Todoke: From Me to You is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Karuho Shiina. It was published by Shueisha in Bessatsu Margaret from 2005 to 2017 and collected in 30 tankōbon volumes."

"Honey Lemon Soda is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Mayu Murata. It has been serialized in Shueisha's shōjo manga magazine Ribon since December 2015, with its chapters collected into 29 tankōbon volumes as of August 2025."

The first thing that caught my attention was the premise of the stories; most popular guy in class helps the marginalised weird girl gain confidence through making friends and falling in love. When looking at it from a further perspective, it seems to have the exact same plot. But there are also significant differences.

Miura Kai and Kazehaya Shota

The love interest are, in my opinion, the ones who make the difference in these particular stories.

Since the mangas share the same plot, there needs to be something that sets them apart. And there is.

Miura Kai, although altruistic at his core, he falls more into the nonchalant and stoic love interest category. While Kazehaya Shota leans more into being soft and sweet, rarely assertive. This applies to how they act with others too.

Miura is mostly uninterested in majority of things, secretive to everyone including close friends, unafraid of being different or unique. His popularity, especially with girls, comes from his looks and laid back attitude. For Kazehaya, on the other hand, it's his friendliness, his understanding nature and his ability to mold himself after the people he actively interacts with (as well as his dashing handsomeness, of course).

But Kazehaya is just as much of a dork compared to Sawako, the main character. He faces his own challenges and misunderstandings. He grows and learns things about himself together with her. Miura is made out to be this mature and stable guy, whose life experience helps him provide help to Uka. He has his beliefs and lifestyle already firmly established, unlike Kazehaya.

Ishimori Uka and Kuronuma Sawako

Besides the similarities in physical appearance Ishimori Uka and Kuronuma Sawako have, they also are very alike morally.

They are both bullied in middle school by classmates who give them nicknames in reference to their odd social behavior; Sawako is nicknamed "Sadako" for looking and acting as a ghost and Uka is nicknamed "Stoney" for being unable to properly express emotions and freezing in place when being approached.

Although in Honey Lemon Soda, it is Miura who gives a helping hand to Uka, while Kimi Ni Todoke, it is Sawako who first approaches Kazehaya to give him directions, later on Kazehaya stands up for Sawako during school. These two first interactions spark the beginning of two complicated love stories. Those moments ignite admiration and appreciation within the girls towards the first people who took the time to watch over them.

From then on, their behaviour with the classmates, friends and love interests are almost identical. From the constant overthinking which complicates everything to the often crying ("It's happy tears this time..."). They both think the same about their friends ("Are we...really friends?") and about romance in general ("These are feelings of appreciation and admiration!").

They even have a rival for the love interest who appears right when they get close to the boys. Whenever you think they are just about to confess to each other, from a distance, you hear "Is that...an ex-classmate from junior high?!". And together with that, the main characters both fall in the black pits of the "They are still in love with each other, I am getting in the way" void.

Heck, even the love confessions are pretty similar (and the reaction to them, as well).

Speed run section of random small similarities I remember on the way:

Both main characters do not have personal mobile phones until their friends (and love interests) convince them to get one

Having to learn how to text and speak informally to people

"How can I get his number so I can text him"

Kind of the whole school culture festival arc with the little confession at the end

Speaking of festivals...the "He surely is here with *rival* and she surely looks so much prettier in the yukata" curse of the summer festival

Both are academically gifted and try to help their classmates with their notes

They volunteer to do the hard work around the classroom in hopes of being useless

They go through a "He only hangs around me because he wants to help me and nothing more" phase

Welp, this is it for now...Tell me you see it too

Bye-byee

maomao is not the bisexual representation the people asked for and honestly she is not the bisexual representation the people needed, I really dont know what that thing is but no one living or dead has the power to stop her. She showed the emperors concubines elicit porn. She met a woman with tits so huge that she completely ignored everything the woman was saying for a full minute to stare at them silently. She put her androgynous boytoy in a dress and made him dance. Grabbed his dong and called it a decent sized frog. And she did all of this while practicing medicine illegally. Feminism wins

I would lie to say that i dont usually read fanfics, especially "yn" implied ones where every interaction seems forced, out of place and just simply awkward. This fanfic is far from it, it has a plot, a story surrounding the main character "yn", not something forced, like squishing a character among the lines and hoping it works.

The more i think about the plot the more interesting it gets, with little fractures of the real world that just make sense to the story, bits and bits of the real world shaped beautifully into a fantasy world, a safe space for when you feel like real-life problems are a bit too much.

On top of that, I personally love it when characters from post-apocalyptic worlds get to live their lives as averages teenagers, and this fanfic shows how unique is every character in a day-by-day scenario. Non-serious interactions, no fear of death, just some young adults complaining about money, something that seems almost insignificant besides the horrors they were put through in the series.

This story is more than just a fanfic, it's a top-tier reality show with characters that are not written only as fuckboys and pick me's. Everything i well written, every detail is there for a reason, and everything makes sense when you really think about it. Every single thought put into this fanfic makes it top tier, it reaches the title of art, an actual form of literature.

Last but not least, i would like to express my respect and admiration towards the author. It clearly show that the story was written with passion, with excitement, with admiration towards the series. Every character is portrayed incredibly good and the story is easy to follow, yet truly exciting and memorable. With laughs and tension between the characters, i think the author made the best interpretation of the AoT cast, a true talent if you ask me. Not everyone can do such an amazing job at describing the situation so well, so sweet, so human.

Overall, this fanfic changes perspectives. Literally. Every AoT fan should give it a shot, no matter if you like Jean or not. I wish I could go back and read it again for the first time, and I am looking forward excitedly to see the up-coming pieces of art the author has to offer. And the dedication to make the apartment in sims??? Simply amazing, admirable, outstanding. An artist that loves to create.

"Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité" netflix anime review

Fifty years ago, Riyoko Ikeda had blessed us with a revolutionary romance manga series called "The Rose Of Versailles" which follows the life of one Oscar François du Jarjayes, a fearless military commander and compassionate patriot. This series divulges Lady Oscar's course of life from early childhood until the last breath of air taken in front of the conquered Bastille.

The year 1975 when the first book of "The Rose of Versailles" was published was not yet ready to warmly embrace taboo subjects such as female military leaders or lead-protagonists, never mind the combination of the two. The story is set in 1770's France when Oscar François du Jarjayes, referred to as Lady Oscar by those who were close to her, never shied away from admitting her true gender and status. That was until she had to face revelations which opened her eyes to a different world.

Despite the fact that Lady Oscar was a female, she had been raised as the heir to her father's legacy, making her adapt to only manly attributes. Growing up as a knight, she knew nothing more than to fight for what she believed in. Once she entered adulthood, she had new aspects of herself to take into consideration. Becoming someone's wife and starting a family completely clashed with the values of being a military general. This started raising question regarding the way to continue her life. It didn't help that her identity journey started together with the revolution of French citizens.

One thing I found particularly interesting enough to be mentioned is Oscar's answer to what seemed to be confusion regarding the role she should embrace; someone's wife or the people's general. She chose to accept the need of love at the same time she refused her noble status in solidarity for the suffering of her country's people. She was at last filled with irrevocable love for her love-interest, as well as French citizens.

Although filled with self-discovering questions and self-accepting answers, "The Rose Of Versailles" remains a series perfectly tailored for hopeless romantics. I believe that this series has beautifully tackled serious topics such as identity crises, misogyny and corruption in political regimes which are, more or less, avoided in order to not lose the potential target audience. Nevertheless, "The Rose of Versailles" is a long-lasting stable shojo manga classic which continues to gain new admirers no matter how long it has been.

Suni talks: Chainsaw Man and the over-s*xualization of some of its characters....

From women to female characters, they all were, are and will continue to be the objects of all men's desires. Nothing is different when it comes to the anime community. In fact, it only gets worse.

Not only do some fans seek to s*xualize some characters for their own 'enjoyment', but they seem to be encouraged. In same cases, the mangakas, the anime studio, the merch producers and other unofficial sellers of merchandise contribute to the damaging viewing of female characters...

(small break) This reminds me of the TikTok an 'anime' guy made in which he implies he stole the virginity of his body pillow of Demon Slayers' 12 to 14 year old Nezuko. That's exactly what I am trying to hint at. These people will s*xualize female characters despite their age and no matter if the 'right' content will be provided for them. That's why I personally think they shouldn't be given 'what they want' (s*xualized figurines, body pillows, etc).

My inspiration for this post was a certain series of Chainsaw Man figurines of some of its female characters dressed in playboy bunny costumes.

With just one search of "Chainsaw Man Figurines" and below a minute of scrolling, you will be greeted by the pictures of Makima and Power figurines dressed in playboy bunny costumes. While Makima is depicted as an adult, Power is not. And besides their ages, which i could not find anywhere, Power is made out to be Denji's first friend, a 16 year old. Most of the times, she behaves much more childishly than Denji, so no matter her 'real' age, the viewers are meant to believe she's only a teenager.

Now it's true that Chainsaw Man is a story which revolves around a teenage boy so the s*xual side of it is mainly present because of that aspect. However, not all anime fans are teenagers and this content, whether it's shonen anime, merchandise and even h*ntai (oh god, the territory i'm crossing here), can be consumed by anybody.

There are plenty other female characters that are s*xualized without having a 'sexy figurine' made of them, including Himeno (supposedly in her mid to late 20's and is also a romanticized by the fandom s*xual abus*r), Kobeni (20 year old), Reze (supposedly late teens to early 20's, shown wearing little to no clothing in the manga) and lately Asa (mid to late teens). It doesn't take much to be seen as an object.

And don't get me wrong, I love Chainsaw Man. I am currently reading the series and I'm not anywhere near dropping it. It's entertaining and its approach is really different from usual shonen manga. However we can't not acknowledge the flaws in some scenes and merchandise pieces.

Some people might say not only female characters get over-s*xualized in the anime community and that's absolutely right! Again, some men have been getting mad after the second season of Jujutsu Kaisen got released and seeing all the "female" fan service of Gojo Satoru, Geto Suguru, Nanami Kento, Kamo Choso, etc. There have been understandably terrible incidents such as the "Bloody Gojo Figurine" one when a supposed underage fan had ruined their figurine of Jujutsu Kaisen's character with their own period blood... But unfortunately for women and most likely fortunately for men, these behaviors are currently not affecting men to the extent it affects women.

Why I am only mentioning the Chainsaw Man figurines, which from what I've seen are sold by none other than Crunchyroll itself, and not the other merchandise of h*ntai characters and whatnot is because Chainsaw Man is getting more main stream as more chapters get released.

What's your opinion on this? Are these pieces of merchandise really encouraging certain people and make them feel they have the right to behave in creepy and lewd ways or do they hold no significance in this situations?

[kissusasha]

The last thing I want to discuss regarding this subject is actually an example.

Let's look at it, shall we?

This is a reel of a tweet...

These are the comments...

My intention with both of my post was to bring awareness to these situations. All my post are commentaries, not criticism.

[kissusasha]

I am so annoyed with the lack of actually good merchandise of under appreciated animes...I always go into stores ready to spend half of my income in there and all i can see are naruto blind baggies, one piece agendas, the same three jjk figurines and several different type of blind boxes of spy x family and demon slayer.

I'm not saying these shows are not good,, I'm trying to say that underrated anime deserve merch too. And if you really insist on selling just one piece and jjk merch at least make it buyable.

I'm really trying to spend some money in here and i can't even do that :(

Suni talks: A Sign of Affection (a sort of review)

A Sign of Affection is a 12 episodes series about a born-deaf girl navigating through college life and relationships, especially romantic ones - which she has no experience in.

I've seen lots of people hyping this series up and I couldn't wait any longer before deciding to give it a try.

Aesthetically, I enjoyed the art-style and animation a lot. It was easy on the eyes, from all characters to even the backgrounds. The show itself was slow paced but not plot-wise which made it very easy to watch and relax to. All characters were written well and it was extremely easy to empathize with all their stories. It definitely felt like the type of show which didn't need a 'bad guy' to get the plot rolling.

But what I wanted to talk about was something I realized as soon as I finished watching all 12 episodes. The communication between characters.

One common trope in shoujo anime/manga is definitely misunderstandings. It's probably as old as the first shoujo manga. My belief is that it's used as a form of dragging the plot as much as you can without making it suspiciously obvious and the book unreadable. A manga which, in my opinion, over-uses this trope is 'Kimi ni Todoke' in which the female lead, Sawako, not only has way too many misunderstandings with the male lead, Kazehaya, but with also pretty much everyone else.

The same things can absolutely not be said about A Sign of Affection. The communication is crystal clear between Yuki, the female lead, and everyone else.

Although Yuki is born deaf and cannot even fathom what talking sounds like, all her relationships seem to have never encountered communication problems or misunderstandings. Most of Yuki's friends are hearing, some of them know the sign language as well, meaning Oushi (if I can call him a friend).

Her romantic relationship with Itsuomi is built on the desire to learn and to discover things they couldn't otherwise but through each other. Ever since Yuki and Itsoumi first met, they were never once met with the inability to communicate freely.

On the contrary, their communication is so good, it doesn't take them a-series-long to get together and we actually have time to see not only how their relationship comes together but also how they both grow in the context of their relationship.

This is one of the reasons why I personally think this series deserves a 10/10 review. (Another reason is the educational aspect of the whole series which is greatly needed.) I highly recommend it if looking for something sweet and short to watch!

Have you watched it? If so, what was your favorite aspect of this anime/manga?

[lesbian-superjesus]

no offense but I feel like you missed the entire point of the manga? Also there are sexualized figures for every anime out there I’ve seen nsfw dungeon meshi figures for christs sake. And it’s not just the female characters I’ve seen figurines of Aki with his whole shaft out and about. Also the sexualization of the characters is directly satirized within the series itself and is integral to the plot and character development of denji. And fandoms are just gonna be weird that’s a fact of life. Internet has always been freaky, nothing new. And himeno is not a romanticized abuser, that whole scene with her and denji was supposed to be uncomfortable. Depiction of sexual abuse is not the same as romanization.

but whatever we’re all entitled to our own opinions ig this is just what I got from reading/watching csm

[kissusasha]

The manga was not my concern! (I've stated that in my original post...)

My concern came with the realization that creepy people exist and they're on the loose, especially in the anime community. They will get their hands on the nsfw merch no matter what. But is it really necessary to have them buy a playboy bunny Power figurine sold by Crunchyroll and think "Huh, this is normal".

Not all nsfw figures are original merchandise sold by none other than Crunchyroll. In fact, most aren't! :)
