Known in Japan as Suki na Ko ga Megane wo Wasureta, the original manga is published in Japan by Square Enix in their Monthly Gangan Joker magazine. An English language version is also available from Square Enix Manga, who describe the story as follows:

 

A delightfully charming romantic comedy about a boy who only has eyes for the girl who always forgets her glasses!

 

The distance between a boy and his crush shrinks every time she forgets her glasses!

 

Komura starts his school year with a new seat neighbor in homeroom—the bespectacled Mie. Before long, he’s nursing a raging crush on his quirky classmate who’s always forgetting her glasses! While this might be ideal for Komura to get to know Mie better, will his poor heart give out from the daily strain of being up close and personal with the girl he likes?!
