Synopsis: Chitose Oki has a huge crush on his nextdoor neighbor Tomo, but there’s one small problem—his height. Back as kids, when his dream girl said she wouldn’t marry him until he grew up, poor Chitose took that quite literally. These days, it’s not just height—one embarrassing misunderstanding after another keeps them from seeing eye to eye. The truth is, they’re both head over heels for each other, but it’s a tall order to confess your feelings to the one you love.

Musings:
This manga is exactly what the premise suggests it is. It’s a cute little will they won’t they romance with the idea that Chitose feels he has to grow taller then his crush in order to marry her one day. It’s two people who clearly really like each other and the fun lively scenarios they get up to.
Tomo remembers their pact long ago and it’s revealed early that she meant he had to be taller then she was when they made the pact. So technically, he already is tall enough to go for her. However, Chitose doesn’t know this and employs a whole plethora of tactics to try and become taller and obsesses over any growth he achieves.
It’s a short and sweet and I enjoyed my time with it for what it was.
