Nakamura-san, the Uninvited Gyaru Vol. 7

In this hilarious romantic comedy manga, love could blossom between the unlikeliest of couples!

But after she saves his life, she demands something unbelievable—to live with him! Proud, bold, and unafraid to show off her body, Nakamura is the perfect image of a gyaru. Except, the moment she’s apart from Akiyama, she becomes a flustered, blushing mess. Discover what sweetness lies beneath the surface in this odd couple rom-com!
