First comes marriage, then comes an earthbound love that is out of this world!

From the day his parents named him, Nasa Yuzaki has felt connected to outer space…whether he likes it or not. His efforts to outperform the space program veer off course when an accident introduces him to Tsukasa, a mysterious girl with strange powers. Is she an alien, a moon goddess or something else? Since she insists on marrying him, Nasa will have plenty of chances to find out!

I received this copy from Netgalley and Viz media in exchange for an honest review.

This is such a cute manga! It follows Nasa, a very driven young man whose life shifts when he meets Tsukasa and immediately promises to marry her. While at the core we are trying to figure out who Tsukasa is, this is mostly just an adorable slice of life romance at the moment. I would love to see more about who she is, but with the Princess Kaguya references and her very peculiar nature, I find myself kind of loving the mystery as well. Nasa is kind of a precious dork so far, and I love how he has so much of his life together but he's a mess when it comes to her. These sorts of stories are not my norm and I wasn't sure if I was going to like it, but I've been trying to branch out into new genres and this turned out to be just the fluffy humorous break that my mind needed. I'm really interested in seeing where volume 2 takes Nasa and Tsukasa.
