FOUND MYSELF A NEW GREEN FOREST TO LOVE 🌲💖💖 IORI SOUMA, THE GENTLEMAN THAT YOU ARE 😮‍💨❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥 Yuuki if you don’t grab this man, I’ll snatch him away

I like the fact that even though Yuuki’s shy and inexperienced, she’s trying her best in order to find her ‘soulmate’; I think that’s so cute of her <3 although I’d like to scream for these two to start dating already (Iori takes such good care of her omg??? the head pats??? running to her when he drunk called her??? BRO IF THAT’S NOT ADORATION I DON’T WHAT IT IS) but I understand Yuuki’s confusion with what’s going on, since he would act like he has feelings for her and then he’d pull back. And now that her old crush came back (who didn’t turn out so bad???), she’s bound to navigate her soulmate-finding-journey the hard way 😔✨

I’ll be team Iori all the way though 💖

I've stopped believing in soulmates. People can change at the drop of a hat, so someone who seems like the right person forever won't stay that way.

Yuuki's attending an all-girls college, and sophomore year she's wanting to find a soulmate. Her roommate Sanae takes her out to the club, where her social anxieties increase. (This is a mood.) One guy is a complete jerk to her while drunk, only to apologize later when sober. To atone for being an ass, Iori agrees to help her and Sanae find soulmates. Though he's a dental student, he has to change his hair and makeup often when not organizing singles mixers. Someone has a mysterious secret.

The FOMO of growing up is very real. Finding love comes with the risk that someone's reality doesn't match your illusion, and a few people have ulterior motives. Still, Yuuki wants to learn and grow. And maybe what she hopes to find is closer than intended.

Fun read by an author that I know already. This time is about a college student who looked for her destined partner, but met instead with a drunkard. The story is sweet, and in the 1st book we've got a triangle love story already. Like her previous works, we have typical girl who is innocent and easily misled, with a handsome boy who had this air of not giving a care to the world.

I really loved the art style of this book. The art is what drew me in to begin with, but the story did not disappoint. I enjoyed the story from the very first page.

How I Met My Soulmate 1 by Anashin is a super cute and unique manga that’s all about fate, love, and finding that one person who just gets you. The story follows a girl named Nari who believes she’s never going to find "the one", until she meets a guy who’s way more than she expected. The romance feels kind of slow-burn at first, but that’s what makes it so satisfying when things start to click between them.

What I really loved about this manga is how sweet and funny it is. The art style is adorable, and you can really feel the chemistry between Nari and the guy she meets. There are some awkward, funny moments that make the characters feel super relatable, and the story does a great job of mixing romance with little twists that keep you interested.

The pacing is perfect for a first volume, enough to introduce you to the characters, give you a glimpse of their connection, and leave you wanting more. It’s not too rushed, which makes the relationship feel real and natural.

How I Met My Soulmate es un manga de temática romántica. Yuki está decidida a encontrar a su alma gemela y para eso decide empezar a conocer gente nueva con el apoyo de su amiga. Las dos van a una fiesta y conocen a varios chicos; de los cuales ninguno parece ser el chico adecuado.
Uno de los tantos incluso parece borde e intimidante. Va con varias copas de más y Yuki le da conversación y le cuida (le da agua y demás).

Iori, el chico intimidante, contacta con Yuki para darle las gracias por esa noche y es así como se empiezan a conocer.

El manga que en un principio parecía que iba a tratarse de la historia de amor de Yuki y Iori no tarda en convertirse en un triángulo amoroso. Entre malentendidos y momentos tiernos entre los personajes este primer volumen deja con ganas de más al lector.

I was not a fan of this story and could not get into it. I didn't end up even finished the first volume. The art style was nice but the story just wasn't for me.

Yuuki is at college hoping she will find the love of her life, her soul mate, because she is lonely and wants love, romance and everything else. Her friend decides that they both need to meet some men and so they go clubbing and they do meet someone who is drunk. Yuuki helps this young man who actually turns out to be quite nice but she sees him as a friend only, but is he?

This is a nice romance with good artwork and engaging characters. A nice start to the series and pleasant to read. It is a nice feel good manga.

I really really enjoyed this! I’ve haven’t been interested in a romance manga in so long, I’m excited to see how this plays out. I’m cursed for falling for the first introduced love interest so I’m rooting for you, Iori!

I’m not generally a romance fan, but it works so well in the context of the comic. Recommended visual reading for the new and familiar, and a wonderful one of the comics medium.

A refreshing manga that focuses on the idea of soulmates. College sophomore Yuuki believes in destiny and everything that comes with it. After hitting a dry spell with dating, she agrees to go clubbing with her friend. Her bestie hits it off great with a guy, but his scary friend comes across as a jerk to Yuuki. But you know what they say about first impressions. Maybe there's more to the story.

A fun romp with an unexpected love triangle thrown in. It's cute and addicting, especially for those readers who love a good romance.

I love the name of this and the art was aesthetically pleasing. I also enjoyed the storyline a lot and found it to be pleasantly different than other manga I have read.

Thank you NetGalley for a copy of this book in exchange for a honest review.

In general, I think this book deserves 3,5/5 stars. The romance is cute, the plot twists are seriously unexpected and exciting, but the main character, Yuuki, feels a little stereotyped. For being a 20 years old woman, she still acts like a teenager, and I'm sorry but I've read/seen too many similar characters to Yuuki to be interest in one more. The strong point of this manga are the love interests and the "mystery" that surrounds their actions. Are they actually telling the truth? Are they lying? What is going on? That was the only thing that kept me reading.
I'm not sure I'll try the next volume, but I would still recommend it to someone who's lookig for some quick-paced story.

Unfortunately, this book wasn't for me and I decided to DNF (did not finish) it soon after starting it.

I wasn’t expecting to enjoy this as much as I did! I loved the art style and really felt like the characters were fun to follow and read about. I think this was a well rounded first volume and I’ll definitely be getting volume 2!

How I met my Soulmate is an adorable manga about relationships and whether the destined one is out there for us all. Yuuki is a relatable character and I can't wait to see what happens next.
