“Love is a temporary madness " _Louis de Bernières


The story is about a schoolboy who fell in love with his sensei. The two characters have known each other in the past as the teacher happens to be the MC's first-love.

None of all of this is original but what's interesting about this manga is that things takes a different turn. Now that the MC 's first-love is teaching Chemistry in his middle school, he won't let her escape...

The sensei rejects the boy's advances so he starts stalking her and showing his yandere side. This manga is not everyone's cup of tea. However, i liked the disturbing/unsettling romance in it.

I think the problem in this kind of manga lies with the fact that the author didn't explain much why the boy's behaviour became extreme like that. Was it because of love or parental abuse, tragic past, psychological illness or a form of love-driven madness...? What about the woman, did she love him from the start and was good at hiding it? What seduced her in him? etc. So i wouldn't call this one a psychological romance because there isn't much backstory to the characters nor sufficient explanations of their choices.

I think it's a really intriguing and enjoyable romance if you look at it from a different perspective.

If you like unconventional and weird/creepy/age-gap romances or you happen to like psycho-lovers, obsessed-stalkers, jealous-possessive-alpha-males, then this manga is for you.
