shmayjoy 's review for:

Sweat and Soap, Vol. 1 by Kintetsu Yamada

5.0

emotional funny inspiring fast-paced

Plot or Character Driven: A mix

Strong character development: Yes

Loveable characters: Yes

Diverse cast of characters: Yes

Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

Not the kind of manga I usually read at all, but exceeded every expectation from the first page until the last page in Vol. 11. I saw a lot of myself in both lead characters and connected instantly. I felt their highs and lows, their growths and regressions, their first awkward bursts and controlled and steady beginning of a new chapter of their lives together. I've never read a manga that so fully catches my heart in the first page and holds it until its warm finale. Please give S&S a try - it'll be your new favorite!!
