見える子ちゃん 1 by Tomoki Izumi
5.0

I started reading this a while back when I somehow happened upon it on Twitter. English translations were just put out for the first few pages and I was hooked right away.
I don't remember as much fan service in the original Twitter release, but I could be remembering it wrong. Thankfully, it seems to only be a major theme in the first few pages, but we'll see how the other books go. I don't mind some, but I don't want to read a book chock-full of it.
I really like the premise of a girl seeing terrifying creatures that others around her can't. How she tries to deal with her new reality and how others perceive the subtle changes to her personality during this time are interesting scenarios. If you think of her actions in terms of someone experiencing other troubles, like depression or anxiety, it can be quite relatable.
This is my second read through. I am about to read the second and third books and wanted a refresher on the beginning.
