It always weirds me out when manga like that have a male protagonist with no eyes. It's like they're making it as explicitly clear as possible that he's an empty void of a person, which in turn makes any relationship he's in feel kind of strange. I get that it's supposed to be a self-insert thing, but I'd much rather both characters have distinct personalities.

The best part of that manga is when the guy randomly does have eyes every once in a while just for emphasis.

Binged Hope you're Happy Lemon. Protagonist meets his ex girlfriend who dumped him in middle school years later in college. They end up Freaky Fridaying every other day. It's dumb and basically a misunderstanding factory, but the art is nice, it's quite funny, and it's a rare college aged romance.

I mean he basically already proposed like 5 chapters ago during their Christmas study session when she asked about his future goals from elementary school, and he straight says he wants to marry her, so to that end he wants to have a good job for their future CommieGIR fucked around with this message at 14:53 on Mar 22, 2024 |

Thank you, folks who mentioned Ikoku Nikki... this is really good. Just wrapped up chapter 7 and am really enjoying this (though feeling bad for Asa at the moment). edit: I've been just tearing through this... so good. Can anyone recommend some other stuff of this style/quality of character writing? (Skip and Loafer is the other thing I've been reading recently that I feel is on a similar level of very authentic feeling characters) Quinton fucked around with this message at 20:38 on Mar 23, 2024 |

You might enjoy Butter!! https://mangadex.org/title/20051751-9096-4302-bd7e-76e1de8367fb/butter. It’s Ikoku Nikki’s author’s previous work that’s very similar to Skip and Loafer

Quinton posted:Thank you, folks who mentioned Ikoku Nikki... this is really good. Just wrapped up chapter 7 and am really enjoying this (though feeling bad for Asa at the moment). Ikoku Nikki and Skip and Loafer are hard to match for very grounded character writing, but maybe check out March Comes in like a Lion if you haven't yet? I also get some of those vibes from the characters in NANA, but that's a doubly depressing series; it's a super tragic drama, and also it abruptly went on hiatus in 2009 (author had a serious illness) and will almost certainly never have an ending.

I thank everyone here for posting the updates and getting me into it. Shame about the anime not being very good. I'll check it out someday eventually and draw my own conclusion, I'm sure. In the meantime, another series by the same author looks interesting: https://mangadex.org/title/90be0dde-350d-4f0e-ba83-da4ba05dbc37/tonari-no-onee-san-ga-suki "I'm in Love With the Older Girl Next Door" She's into film and they have movie nights.

Does that March Lion manga actually have romance? I read a bit of it and it was good but i drifted off after a while i think because it felt like beyond the one family everyone was a bit of a jerk. Though i didnt get to deep and i haven't read it in a long while so i could be really wrong.

ZeusCannon posted:Does that March Lion manga actually have romance? I read a bit of it and it was good but i drifted off after a while i think because it felt like beyond the one family everyone was a bit of a jerk. Yes, but its not the focus of the first 3/4 of the story and the romance is almost a footnote in the entire story its a slow burn since the focus of the first halves story is not the romance but Rei's struggle with his depression and life, Hina's struggle with various things in her life, and their mutual helping each other out of their darkest periods. Hina and Rei end up together. Rei basically told her that he would spend his life helping her to pay her back for helping him, and after Takahashi leaves (Hina's first crush that was never reciprocated), she realizes Rei has been there for her at nearly every critical point in her teenage life. It'll probably be season 3 before we see any of the confession. CommieGIR fucked around with this message at 02:27 on May 5, 2024 |

Takes a while to get there though, I guess if there was a third season of the anime that would probably get into that. Rei is dating Hina, the middle sister of the family you're probably referencing.

March Like a Lion only has a modest amount of romance, but it does feature some excellent bromances to round things out.

Rei's post depression streak where everyone is going "This guys just a silly little puppy. What's he loving planning?" rules.
