Kimi to Uchuu wo Aruku Tame ni
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!

"Kanata's quiet rural life takes a turn when he meets Utagawa, a withdrawn transfer student whose singing voice eerily resembles that of Kanata's favorite utaite, reigniting his curiosity and admiration." AHH what a spectacular little story! Classically comforting but also unique.
Ashita wa Ieru Kana
"Ootani struggles to express his love for Ayumi, but with advice from his classmate Takatsuki, their growing friendship blossoms into something deeper." Weirdly compelling? A little bittersweet, but more on the sweet side. A rather realistic take.
Hibari ga Naitara Tsukamaete
"Enomoto reunites with his long-lost childhood friend Shimura in college, but their feelings about the reunion differ..." Has a nice touch of realism and such pretty art. Classic and perfect childhood friends to re-encounter story.
Kaze no Iro made Oboeteru
"The first year of high school: Spring Mori, who has just entered school, learns of his classmate, Michioto, who is rumored to be the "treasure of the boys' school." Mori volunteered to ask for Michioto's contact information on behalf of a friend who was too scared to talk to him. Mori headed towards Michioto without really thinking about it, but the moment Mori sees him, it's love at first sight." "All I know is I wanna marry him"... PERIOD! Such a precious love at first sight school setting with beautiful art. It's very much BL distilled into it's purest essence, simplified into the most simple components, but then that directs your attention to the deliberate little details that just give the story so much life and really make the little joys of young love the focus of the story.
