The Guy She Was Interested in Wasn't a Guy at All, Vol. 1 by Sumiko Arai

emotional funny hopeful fast-paced

5.0

Aya is a pretty, popular high school girl whose only unusual trait is her taste in retro western rock and indie music. Her love of this music leads her into a CD shop where she develops a bit of crush on the cute dark haired boy who works behind the counter. Little does she know that this "boy" is one and the same as the girl she sits next too in school! Mitsuki has always marched to the beat of her own drum; she's loved rock, dressed mostly in all black boys clothes, and struggled to find anyone who shares her interests her whole life. I LOVED the art in this comic, and I'm already so hooked on the sweet, nuanced friendship (or more?) between these little alternative teens.
