Kimi ni Todoke: From Me to You
They called her a ghost. She just wanted someone to say good morning back.
Who it's for
Sawako has learned to expect that people will misread or avoid her, so she apologises in advance, assumes kindness is pity, and hesitates to believe anyone really wants her around.
Feelings it meets
What it is
Sawako Kuronuma is timid and kind, but because she looks like the ghost Sadako from The Ring, her classmates assume she is creepy and keep their distance. When the friendly, popular Kazehaya encourages her to join in a class event, she slowly begins to make real friends with Ayane Yano and Chizuru Yoshida.
Where to find it
