I Became Friends with the Second Cutest Girl in My Class (WN)クラスで２番目に可愛い女の子と友だちになった

This is the anime novel they've released? They look a lot alike

Will there be any new chapters? Anyone know why there hasnt been any recently?

Any novel recommendations like this one?

Review at chapter 81
To be honest, at first I thought this novel will just be like other, bland, cringe and so on. The first dozen chapter were a bit slow, annoying and sometimes boring to read. But in the end the slow romance between Mc and FML was really good, enjoying to read, sometimes I even have a little smile hanging around my mouth 'cause it's like a mother watching two lil kid growing into a couple, verh heartwarming.

Still it isn't perfect but that's normal and I find it acceptable. Maybe the little drama is annoying but at least It show us that it's real, they're not only 2D characters they're like real person.
Following the story til now I can see certainly the one who made the biggest development is our MC, he want from a complete loner, indifferent of other people to someone who can man himself up, have sort of sociability with his classmates just as classmate and communicate with them without feeling too much pressure. Now, he can also be more decisive, daring with his choice, he's totally different from the one showed at chapter 1 and It feel really good to see his development. Not to forget other characters too, Asanagi, she too grew up, I'm rly lazy to write so l'll just write that, she went from a busy body/manager, to someone who know what she lack, to depend on other and so on, she reflect a lot the relationship of some people in irl but at least she's honest enough to tell it face to face even though it's true she ran away one time.

Anyways what to say, I recommend this novel very much if you appreciate slow romance with lot of sugar and having a MC that's not beta but just better than a average Joe and who can man up his feeling unlike some other Japanese MC where u need hundred of chapter to see a kiss happening.

4.5⭐

So far I've been really enjoying this novel, The story isn't bad it's around what you'd expect from a slice of life romance but I think it's much better than the usual stuff since the characters don't feel two dimensional and they feel like real human beings. They haven't done anything really cliche and the romance has been developing at a pretty good pace. Overall the story feels realistic and the characters are very well created solid 9/10 (from a SoL lover)
