Hyakusou no Uraniwa
"Once upon a time, Marcel's sister injured herself in the forest while gathering herbs. Marcel was at a loss for what to do until a fearsome horned man appeared, offering help–in exchange for a promise. Now, ten years later, Marcel returns to the woods, steeling himself for death. Instead, he finds something quite different: a gentle soul, friendship... and perhaps something more." ✰ Human x Nonhuman ⤷ I love the first story so much everything about it is beautiful. The writing the art the setting the atmosphere I wish the entire manga was that story. I liked the one shots as well, but just not as much but I also am just not a super fan of anthologies I get invested in one story only, but yeah, just talking about the first story I could read like 80 more chapters of them. 4.5
Bright Blue ni Shizumu
"Edward (known lovingly as "Ned" ) is a fledgling writer taking his yearly summer retreat at the home of siblings Margaret and Albert. Ned's been in countless romances with women, but he finds himself more and more infatuated with the sarcastic, sister-doting, fickle and gorgeous Albert every time they meet... This cinematic love story, with its heart-rending and love-maddening scenes, features a deepening love in breezy summer that ends, as well as a new beginning." ✰ ⤷
