Springtime by the Window

Age: 📚 12+ | 2 Volumes (Complete) | Paperback & eBook | Creator: Suzuyuki

Springtime by the Window is a sweet, gentle high school romance manga from creator Suzuyuki that captures the aching uncertainty of first love—when every glance means something and every silence feels loaded with possibility. For readers who love the quiet moments between confessions, this series blooms with understated charm.

Yamada is the picture of composure. Cool, collected, and seemingly unflappable, he navigates high school with an ease that makes him popular among classmates. But beneath that calm exterior lies a secret he's kept for years: he's hopelessly in love with Seno, his childhood friend.

The problem? Seno has no idea.

As second year unfolds, Yamada finds himself caught between wanting to preserve their friendship and longing for something more. Around him, classmates Akama and Toda are navigating their own tentative steps toward romance, creating a web of feelings, misunderstandings, and almost-moments that will resonate with anyone who's ever been too afraid to speak their heart.

Springtime by the Window excels at capturing the small, significant details of adolescent love—the way a casual touch can feel electric, the way words fail at the worst possible moments, the way hope and fear exist in equal measure when you're seventeen and everything feels like forever.

Springtime by the Window is a love letter to the season when everything feels possible—and terrifying—all at once.

Perfect for readers who love: High school romance, slice-of-life manga, slow-burn love stories, childhood friends-to-lovers, gentle emotionally authentic storytelling.
