Source-derived summary

You and I Are Polar Opposites (Japanese: 正反対な君と僕, Hepburn: Seihantai na Kimi to Boku) is a Japanese web manga series written and illustrated by Kōcha Agasawa. It was serialized on Shueisha's Shōnen Jump+ app and website from May 2022 to November 2024, with its chapters collected in eight tankōbon volumes.

The series follows Miyu Suzuki, an outgoing high school girl, and her relationship with her crush Yusuke Tani, an introverted boy, while also drawing focus on their group of friends and their respective relationships.

An anime television series adaptation produced by Lapin Track aired from January to March 2026. A second season aired from July to October of the same year.

Plot

Miyu Suzuki and Yusuke Tani are two high school students who are polar opposites of each other—Suzuki is an energetic and outgoing girl who tends to follow the crowd, even when she does not feel like doing so, while Tani is a quiet and introverted boy who bluntly speaks his mind. Because of this, Suzuki fell head over heels in love with Tani the moment she saw him for the first time, but is unable to really make her feelings known to him, and is unaware that Tani also has a crush on her. After she confesses her love to him, he reciprocates and the story follows Suzuki and Tani in their developing relationship, as well as their friends' issues.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as japanese manga series. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 28, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q113450307. None of the 1 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2022, 2024 and 2026.

Critical limits

Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
