Kanojo wa Rokurokubi

Description

A story about a long-necked girl's love life:
Kanoi Natsuki and her childhood friend Itsuki visit the same school and there seems to be more between them besides friendship. As a Rokurokubi, her quirk of stretching her neck is normal for her and her surroundings, but it's not always her choice to stretch it and although she has feelings for Itsuki, she can't tell him what she feels. Ultimately, she has to go through misunderstandings and shame. Itsuki, meanwhile, manages to make any awkward situations dissolve or maybe not?

Weird but Good

It was enjoyable, but it was a bit nonsensical in different parts.

Wished it was longer with the same ending but

The ending was so satisfying but it was like the story was just ended so sudden. Still, I like the relationship between both main characters built. It was really good but I just wished it was longer.

AXED?!

I dunno why, at the beginning, the story is a little slow but I guess starts from around chapter 15 the story keep getting good with introduction of some new interesting youkai character and everything & suddenly, its just end. Just like that, I really like to see more youkai character and slow development of their love. I dunno if its really axed or not but I really like it, I hope there will be kanojo-wa-rokurokubi 2! I hate this kind of fate of my favorite manga!

I loved how i could feel for the emotions/situations happening within the work. You know it's a good manga when you can really laugh & take the series for what it is. However, i was left wanting MORE.. more backstory, more yokai characters, more development etc. When it all ended, i just layed there w somany questions left unanswered ._. Don't get me wrong, i like this manga but i would've LOVED a flash-forward atleast or some type of hint that the two MC's were still keeping in touch or idk A FRIGGEN BONE for all i care as long as its SOMETHING. Whatever i liked it alot..

Rushed but good

This a great short series actually. It's better to end soon with a proper conclusion than dragging for ever and ruinning all the work with a blue balling ending like nazo no nakojo X.

At least they kissed and did it

Ugh, I hate it! It was so good, it had the potential, I gave it a seven now I'll give it a 5 maybe 4 because damn this was axed!

That ending was so rushed, it had no actual conclusion. Nope nope...

Charming, with a couple of surprisingly interesting nuances

by DJAquilla

(Excuse the ten. It's early-days tactical voting; I'll likely redress it later.)

So, the manga's great. Tomboyish (which is to say, refreshingly not the demure shoujo archetype) female lead, who happens to be able to extend her neck to arbitrary lengths. And no one views this as weird. Which is a beautiful effect in and of itself, and allows for a lot of great comedy.

But beyond that, the other stand-out element in the manga is how well it renders the physical aspect of budding love; how her eyes go out of focus when the boy she likes touches her, the way her lips wriggle when she thinks of how his would feel against them.
It captures those charming tells with a documentary precision. Very refreshing; "Taiyou no Ie" had a bit of this, and "Yubisaki Milk Tea", but it's taken up to 11 in this series.

Well. The synopsis here misses the biggest plot issue, specifically the heroine's neck. It's a decent story, mediocre at best, with a character quirk just stuffed in to fill in the blandness. Read if you've got nothing to do and nothing to read.
