Blurb

edit

The overly confident Fujino and the shut-in Kyomoto couldn’t be more different, but a love of drawing manga brings these two small-town girls together. A poignant story of growing up and moving forward that only Tatsuki Fujimoto, the creator of Chainsaw Man, could have crafted.

A short and sweet story about making art and growing up.

Wonderful story and at 1 volume only it is short and sweet and totally worth reading. No furigana but the language used is relatively simple, as the story takes place in everyday life. Mostly telling the story through visuals, the text is minimal which helps make it easier to read.

Good story

If you want to test your kanji reading with out furigana this is the perfect place to start. It’s not too long and all the kanji is what is used often in writing. Not too hard of a read.

A poignant and touching short that is surprisingly readable at lower levels. Language used is mostly at the elementary or junior high level, with the most difficult parts being later news reports and similar in-universe documents (websites, comments etc) which don't need to be read thoroughly to get the gist. As with a lot of Fujimoto's work, much of the storytelling is purely visual and he absolutely excels at it - meaning that it's easier than you might think to read an Eisner-nominated manga!

This wasn't too much of a challenge language-wise, besides a couple of new words relating to art and manga. A highly recommended, moving story.
