Perfect step up from beginner manga

Furigana is minimal but the text density is light and there is a lot of repeated vocabulary. The art is cute and the story is intriguing with mystery elements. I really enjoyed it! I think this would be a great manga for working on your kanji skills while not being too difficult.

i'm really enjoying this, currently on volume 9

my reading speed is slow (can't do more than a volume a day even if i have all day for it). it's easy to get bored or tired when being this slow so the story being so gripping helps a lot with that, unlike reading a slice of life where not much happens i'm always looking forward to the next plot point

volume 1 is easier than the rest but the difficulty is certainly higher than anything i've read so far. still, i found it doable, i just wouldn't

This is the first manga (series) that I wanted to keep reading even after I had exhausted my Japanese reading stamina. I would be reading for hours up until my brain just can't comprehend any Japanese whatsover and needed a break, and I would sit in frustration because I want to know what happens next but my brain is spent and wouldn't let me. I think this rea

Enjoyed this manga quite a lot, very cute

Doesn't have furigana which can be seen as a pro or a con - it was definitely challenging for me, on the other hand I "learned" to approach (for me) unreadable characters (how to best look them up, how to handle, etc.)

Surely a plus for people who want to stop relying on furigana

Step-up manga from Yotsubato!

This manga features a maid's daily life with her master, who does not have a face. I feel that this is a good step up from the casual interaction in Yotsubato! since the maid often speaks formally. Despite this, these is a repeated use of vocabulary. The interactions between the maid and her master are very wholesome. Will definitely continue reading the entire series

Shadows House is a really interesting series. It starts off almost as a slice of life comedy about a servant and her master, with a little mystery and intrigue thrown in. However, as the series progresses the comedy is toned down and the mystery elements become the focus. There's a lot to love about this series, but the story and characters are really where it shines.

It's also worth mentioning that there is a full color digital version of the manga, which is what I've been reading since volume
