I'm honestly considering this if more goons here don't terribly mind.

We've had this title for a while now correct? A little change wouldn't be bad.

Me too, it's been so long I've completely forgotten.

EDIT: If you don't mind, put some spaces in like: É L É G A N T

It's way more elegant that way.

It's been a couple years, but I think the context was Jitsu Wa Watashi Wa getting an anime adaptation?

And yeah, I've had that opened for a while. With such a good recommendation, I'll give it a read now, then.

Uh well, I should say it's tonally and to some extent aesthetically YKK2.
It's not got quite the same atmosphere of wistfulness, I don't think, because the protagonists are on a journey with a specific goal in mind, which wasn't the case with Alpha for most of YKK.

Even if it's only ~0.85 YKKs, I'll still happily read it, because YKK is the epitome of everything so being a fraction of YKK is still a powerful recommendation.

It's undoubtedly the closest thing to YKK I've read, I'll definitely say that. Certainly moreso than Girls Last Tour, for example.

Okay, I do get what you mean. It is very comfy, kinda sad, with a similar setting. I like it!

I mean, it's not as good as YKK (yet, anyway) but it certainly owes an inspiration to it, I think.

Oneshot, tragedy, dog in the example picture. Nope!

Glad I tagged oneshot as hidden on mangadex, seems like half the time it's an author dropping a single chapter long depression bomb when it's not someone testing the waters for a new series

Now if only they added the option to hide specific series instead of genres

It's Avogado9. Eventually, you'll learn to associate the art style with depression too.

Read it and all I thought was the dog probably wouldn't actually be able to tell the robots apart because they'd be made from the same materials and a dog's visual acuity isn't all that great so the only way it was telling who his master was is by size.
