ari's manga / #Beautiful Art(45)

"Nagata Shingo, the school's cupid, is asked to uncover the story behind the scar of aloof "ice prince" Ao. As he investigates, Shingo discovers a hidden side to Ao that could change his view on love." Cute and interesting.

IT GOT UPDATED!

"Overworked Masamune Hanazawa hires a housekeeping service to escape convenience store meals. Enter Natsuki Mikoshiba, a reserved college student. Masamune is grateful for the warm home-cooked meals, but he’s caught off guard when Natsuki suddenly confesses, claiming it was “love at first sight”!" Super cute and I love the art style.

Absolutely GORGEOUS art style and really heartfelt, angsty but sweet. Explores queer one-sided-love pain very well.

"University student Ikumi returns home for the summer and befriends Harukiyo, a shy gardener hiding behind an edgy exterior. As their friendship deepens, Ikumi's feelings take an unexpected turn after seeing Harukiyo’s vulnerable side." (4.5) CUTE indeed, Ikemen x Gardener. Slight age gap but a rather sweet and loving long-distance relationship! Art is lovely and the characters are fun; classic gap moe!

"Sumito exchanges heartfelt messages in a coffee shop's notebook with someone he imagines as his ideal "girlfriend," but when they finally meet, he discovers the writer is Kokuma, a towering 190cm man, turning his expectations upside down." (4.5) very, VERY cute! Always a fan of the "misunderstood big guy" trope, and it was done very sweetly here.

A more interesting story compared to my other reads, character-wise. The art is so pretty! Looking forward to more chapters.

"Kishida, a dedicated office worker, spends his Wednesdays making meals for Towa, a workaholic who often forgets to eat, sharing delicious food and heartwarming moments in the most delightful settings." I'd love more.

LOVE this artist's artwork!! Waiting for more!

SO very slice of life. Discusses and illustrates folks' different experiences with neurodivergence and their own struggles and the way they intertwine... The art is wonderfully unique. SO EXCITED FOR MORE!
