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

4.0

A sweet, slow-burn start to a new manga series featuring two high school girls (Saki and Kanon) whose unexpected meeting turns into a touching friendship with hints of a romance to come. Kanon's initial appearance gave off a strong Komi (Can't Communicate) vibe, though Kanon definitely has no problem speaking up and putting up a wall with others due to her hearing loss. Saki comes across as kind if a bit nervous around Kanon, and she gradually becomes someone Kanon can trust. There are hints of an attraction between the two that will likely be developed more over subsequent books (along with more backstory), but this is a lovely start for a new series. 4 stars.

Thank you, Kodansha Comics and NetGalley, for providing an eARC of this book. Opinions expressed here are solely my own.
