Find me someone who isn’t charmed by this tale of Akria and Haruo.

It’s 1991, the third generation of gaming is in full swing. Arcades are a haven for middle-school students Haruo, who isn’t good at much else but has mad gaming skills, and Akira, who is rich, and good at everything but, has so much pressure put upon her.
At first Haruo finds Akiras presence in his “sanctuary” annoying, but as the chapters unfold, his feelings change. 

I knew I’d love the manga. I already fell head over heels for the anime. It is SO good being able to revisit the story from the beginning though.
