'5 Seconds Before Falling in Love with a Monkey' by Miyu-san, whom I follow, is extremely interesting and I recommend it to everyone. I will definitely read the sequel.

The main article is here. I'm so curious about the ending, what happens next, and the new characters that I can't sleep... Please write a sequel. I'm begging you ( ；∀；)

✨Character illustrations and character plots

**Illustration of the 5 character settings**

【1】Saru-kun♥️
A 27-year-old young painter. He looks like a monkey and loves climbing trees.
He paints pictures while in the trees.
He looks thin, but because he climbs trees and runs instead of walking on the road, he is naturally muscular.

✨✨✨

【2】Aoi♥️
A 25-year-old incredibly cute and beautiful young lady.
Office worker. Long hair.
Image of a girly appearance.

Very good at bowling.
A bright and energetic woman.

【4】Suzumura-kun♥️
A talented 25-year-old young man who is a management candidate at Midoriko's supermarket.

**Scene: Suzumura-kun introduction/rejection**

**Scene: Sequel teaser - A love triangle**

That is all. There are many episodes that draw you into the story, and I had a great immersive experience starting from the New Year.

Originally, when I searched for Ai-chan's motif, the 'tufted capuchin', there were only 8 results, so I had no choice but to search for 'monkey', and since Miyu was hosting an interesting project, I decided to join in (lol). I feel very lucky to have come across such an interesting project and read such an interesting article right from the start of the new year.
I hope everyone has a great year this year!

Thank you for reading until the end.
