ari's manga / #slice of life(103)

"High school sweethearts who eloped, Kusaka and Mikuriya face a crisis 15 years later when Kusaka wants to break up, prompting Mikuriya to confront a long-hidden secret." SOOO GOOOD. What a refreshing and lovely long-term relationship. They love each other so, so much.

"A Shimizu-oriented live-in manga depicting a male streamer and an office worker who falls in love with him." (4.5/5) A simple and fun read. Cozy little shorts of their interactions. The tension is tangible!

"Yokoi's Calligraphy Catastrophe": If Yokoi were a doctor, he wouldn't have to be so self-conscious... After another incident of his boss double-checking the contents of a note from Yokoi, he decides to do something about his poor penmanship. Perhaps calligraphy classes can rescue his chicken scratch writing... But what if the teacher makes his hands tremble even more!? "Licky's Dogma": For Shinobu, it was love at first sight. But Kiichi was too preoccupied with his dog Licky... Will Shinobu ever be able to live up to man's best friend? "Mr. Good Luck Charm": Futoshi Ono has been held back a year. He frequently misses school and often has an injury, usually on his face. Everybody thinks he's your typical delinquent who skips classes and gets into fights. But in reality, Futoshi is getting beat up... by spirits! Amulets and talismans only go so far. What Futoshi really needs is a good luck charm...!" Soooo very down to earth. I loved them!
