Шаблон:Nihongo is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Syundei. The series follows the titular Nakamura, a closeted high school student who has a secret crush on his classmate. Go For It, Nakamura! was serialized in the manga magazine Opera from 2014 to 2016, collected into a bound volume by Akane Shinsha in 2017, and licensed for an English-language release by Seven Seas Entertainment in 2018. A sequel, Шаблон:Nihongo, began serialization in June 2017.

Synopsis

Closeted sixteen-year-old high school student Okuto Nakamura harbors a crush on his classmate Aiki Hirose, despite having never actually spoken to him. The strongly introverted Nakamura fantasizes about speaking to Hirose and often attempts to integrate himself into scenarios that would allow the two to interact, though the majority end in comedic failure. Nakamura is eventually able to build his confidence and grow closer to Hirose. The series concludes with the two boys developing a reciprocal friendship.

Media

Manga

The character Nakamura first appeared in illustrations and short web comics posted by Syundei online.[2] In 2014, Syundei was approached by the managing editor of the manga magazine Opera to draw a comic to fill empty pages in an issue of the magazine.[3] That comic, a one shot that was published in the December 2014 issue of Opera, would become the first chapter of Go For It, Nakamura!.[3] Beginning in the June 2015 issue of Opera, Go For It, Nakamura! began serialization as a regular series, running concurrently in Opera with Syundei's horror manga series Total Eclipse of the Eternal Heart.[3][4]

Upon its conclusion, the eleven-chapter series was collected into a bound volume by Akane Shinsha and published on May 27, 2017.[5] On September 15, 2017, Seven Seas Entertainment announced that it would license an English-language translation of the series.[4] The single-volume manga was published on July 3, 2018,[6] making Go For It, Nakamura! the first boys' love manga series to be published by Seven Seas.[7][2]

A sequel series, Шаблон:Nihongo, began serialization in Opera in June 2017.[4] An English-language translation was published by Seven Seas Entertainment in July 2022.[8]

Reception

The series was praised for its 1980s-reminiscent artwork,[10][11] with Sean Gaffney of Manga Bookshelf favorably comparing it to Ranma ½ and Kimagure Orange Road.[12] Anthony Gramuglia noted in his review of the series for Anime Feminist that Go For It, Nakamura! is "part of a new wave of [boys' love] manga that are more about identity than sex."[11] Reviewing the series for Otaku USA, Brittany Vincent praised the series' romantic comedy elements, calling Go For It, Nakamura! a "special treat for LGBT audiences eager for a sweet, retro-flavored romantic comedy."[13]
