Is Love the Answer? by Uta Isaki

I would honestly consider this manga as an important piece of literature for aspec rep, alongside Loveless and Aces Wild. This book does an incredible job in showing the world from someone on the aspec spectrum and dives into a number of things within the aspec communities. There's compulsatory romance; pressures to have sex when you would rather do anything else; fears of being 'broken' on the inside; older aspec people; queerplatonic relationships; and so much respect for Chika and her sexuality. An absolutely incredible book that I would recommend to anyone curious about the aspec community! :D
