Kiss Me at the Stroke of Midnight is written and illustrated by Rin Mikimoto. It was serialized in the monthly magazine Bessatsu Friend from the May 2015 issue released on April 13, 2015 to the June 2020 issue released on May 13, 2020. [5] The chapters were later released in 12 bound volumes by Kodansha under the Kodansha Comics Bessatsu Friend imprint. [6] Rebecca Silverman from Anime News Network complimented the artwork and the juxtaposition of the Cinderella fairytale but cited issues with some of the romance tropes used. [22] The art is mostly pretty decent and clean. There are some minor issues with human anatomy, and the dog is rather questionable. The romance between Hinana and Kaede really starts in this volume, as does a potential love triangle. Yep. Akira is totally on to them...and he's about to embark on his role as "the other love interest" as he makes it obvious as he has a bit of a thing for Hinana and he decides he's going to give Kaede some competition.

But that leads into the downside to having such a positive relationship is then the conflict must come from the outside, in the form of various characters that have various reasons for breaking them up, which I personally can find very aggravating depending on how it plays out. The protagonist to me comes off at that typical shoujo heroine of too nice and oblivious when the audience knows the other characters are being horrible or extremely self serving, and I find myself wishing she'd call them out on it, rather than let it continue until it becomes an drama avalanche.

Overall a typical but still quite solid shoujo manga. Not overly clichee, but nothing really new either. If you like shoujo, and early romance, give it a try. The main pairing feel like unique individuals with discernible personalities rather than cardboard cutouts a b Sherman, Jennifer (April 11, 2019).

(the development of the secondary couples is present in volume 12, which is not yet translated into English, but I have read it in Japanese so if you want to know in detail the ending of the manga send me a private message).

Somehow, they don't have any real problems or insecurities between them, so all drama initiates from outside influences. Ressler, Karen (November 21, 2017).

it is ridiculous. Love-rival appears, gets to know female MC, gives up and instead befriends her. Some of the drama really felt unnecessary, I mean there's no point in having it when it doesn't even give them the slightest push.Sherman, Jennifer (October 28, 2020). "North American Anime, Manga Releases, October 25–31". Anime News Network . Retrieved April 1, 2021. Kiss me at the Stroke of Midnight is yet another take on the shoujo trope of a girl ends up dating a celebrity. I think this one is a reasonably high quality one of this type. This is also one of those shoujo manga where the characters start dating early in, which is the fashion these days. This particular take is more of a realistic drama in tone.
