It has been a while seems I flown through a manga. I loved every moment of this. So wholesome and that last page gosh my baby
A pretty thoughtful depiction of life with impaired hearing which is also a yuri romance that's very much "girl you live like this*" where this* is a constant state of gay panic sprinkled with plenty of genre staples (YMMV on how you feel about the latter). Interesting decisions include examining the too-easy-to-blur line between a co-dependence that may form in a friendship with someone with a disability and actual romantic attraction, and not wanting to romanticize the isolation that comes with a disability. As someone with some hearing issues, I really appreciated the depiction of exhaustion and irritation that comes with overtaxing the senses. Based on the notes it seems a good amount of research went into it as well.
Thanks to Netgalley & Kodansha for an ARC of this.

This was a really adorable manga first volume and I’m excited to see where the series will go next. I really enjoyed the main characters Saki and Kanon. Sakis is super adorable, I don’t know how anyone wouldn’t fall in love with her. And Kanon is someone I related to and really enjoyed. She’s more sassy and upfront but also a bit oblivious. Their budding friendship is really sweet, but I’m also super curious to see how it will grow into something more throughout the series.
Thank you to netgalley, the publishers, and the author for the arc I was able to enjoy reading.
