taketwolu 's review for:

The Moon on a Rainy Night, Vol. 1 by Kuzushiro

---

On a rainy night, Saki crashes into a girl while rushing to a piano lesson -- despite apologizing, the girl says nothing. The next day, Saki learns that the girl is her new classmate, Kanon, who is hard of hearing -- the two slowly form a friendship. Through small moments, we see Saki learn more about the hard of hearing community and Kanon opens up about her negative experiences in the past. I loved that the friendship wasn’t cut and dry but rather we see these two work things out and come together. Overall, a sweet, evolving read.

Thanks Netgalley and Kodansha Manga for the copy!
