Synopsis

With a smirk, the mischievous middle school boy Nishikata glances over at Takagi, the girl seated next to him in class. He has just devised a master plan to finally get back at her for all the merciless teasing inflicted upon him. As he is about to set his plan into motion, Takagi intervenes with a single comment that halts Nishikata right in his tracks. She had turned the tables on him yet again.

"If you blush, you lose." That has been the unwritten rule set between the two ever since they encountered one another in middle school. Day after day, loss after loss, Nishikata strives to see Takagi red with embarrassment, but his futile attempts are only met by further ridicule. Beyond this vicious cycle of trying to outwit one another, will their relationship ever evolve?

Teasing Master Takagi-san is a very wholesome and funny manga, it’s not a romcom, because yes, there is romance, but it’s more like a side story until the final chapters, so, even if it doesn’t seem like it, this story is more about the funny moments than actual romance. As other reviewers have said, my main criticism is about the chronology and progress of the story. Because there is a chronology, but, for some reason the mangaka decided to release the chapters in a weird random order (when we are talking about chronological order, of course) that makes you question if the chapters are even ...

Teasing master Takagi-san has been a great soul-healing experience over these great years we were given with it. A story about a young duo of a boy and a girl in a coastal town living their youth whilst competing in different kinds of games. That´s it.

Boy challenges the girl out of frustration of constantly losing to her and she gladly accepts every time with a gentle smile.
The only thing that changes is pretty much the weather. And that´s occasionally.

Definitely a manga for those looking to slow down their heart beats and to relax, maybe remember your own childhood and gently laugh at things you did. ...

Mixed Feelings
After binge-watching three seasons and the movie, I decided to read only the final chapter of the manga, "177 Summer Festival." The repetitive nature of Takagi teasing Nishikata became apparent during my binge-watching, and the manga's content seemed to follow the same pattern. While I checked out a few manga chapters to see if it was worth investing more time, it didn't feel compelling. Reading weekly might have offered a different experience, but the content appeared unchanged.

Spoiler:
My disappointment peaked when, after 176 chapters, Nishikata suddenly confesses his love for Takagi at the summer festival. The impact was minimal, If he had confessed earlier, it might ...
