    Firstly, you need to know that this was authored by Fujisawa Tohru, the mangaka behind GREAT TEACHER ONIZUKA. That alone is a big plus. The story itself is quite solid, featuring a decent plot, good character development, humor, and plenty of action. Be warned though, there's quite a bit of gore involved. Our heroine is a unique character whose experiences make for an interesting read, to say the least. It’s not every day you come across a gun-toting high schooler taking out bad guys for the police using rubber bullets. Overall, the story remains pretty upbeat despite occasionally dealing with some very dark or depressingly morbid topics. This contrast is also part of its charm. To truly appreciate the story properly, however, you should read the prequel first, Rose Hip Zero. It sets everything up nicely. Personally, I prefer this one over the prequel. Honestly, Rose Hip Zero provides a lot of background information and has a more familiar feel akin to GTO. I thoroughly enjoyed it and can't wait to see Rose Hip Magnum, which will complete the series.

    wow ! , this was something else , just calling it some random isekai reincarnation manga doesn't do it justice at all, the thorough character detalis they have put in and the worldbuilding , seriously , i didn't expect much from this but it surely left a strong impact amongst the many isekai mangas i have  read till date.

    You just got Chiaki at ch 269 and 271. Even the white day chapter are mostly from Chiaki pov. This just show how "toxic" Chiaki fan is.
