A cute Yuri short story collection from different artists that's wholesome, heartwarming, and oftentimes funny! I particularly like that the stories's characters are mostly working adults. Also since this features different artists/mangaka, the art styles also vary and I loved that!
I can't exactly remember why I didn't love this as much as I wanted to, but I'm guessing it wasn't as good as I expected.

There were one or two stories in this anthology that were good, but overall it was just really really bad.

I liked the various beautiful art styles, though I wish they had more variety and weren’t all so “cutesy”. I liked that there seemed to be a unified theme with women at work. I feel like some of the stories were definitely lacklustre (also, one of the stories had an incest plotline, which I didn’t appreciate).
I’d say my favorites were My Girl by Goumoto (p.33-38), The Cram School Teachers by Mocchi_au_Lait (p.41-53), Promise by Shioya Teruko (p. 69-80), My Femme Fetale by Matsuzaki Natsumi (p.133-141) and First Grown-up Love by Ito Hachi (p.143-159).

Ack! First time I’m giving 2 stars to an anthology in a while. I feel like this might just be a case of my own personal tastes; these stories are all cute, fluffy, low-conflict contemporary pieces. Just not really my cup of tea, though I did go “awww” once or twice. While it is not inherently a point against things to be short, it definitely was in this case. The art was generally really nice to look at, though, with a wide range of styles amongst the artists, so that’s a definite plus.
EDIT: OH NO just reread one section and there is just straight up fetishized incest in it, oh no. I totally didn’t register that the first time I read it because I was bored and not paying attention.
