Nighttime for Just Us Two, Volume 1 by Maki Miyoshi
4.0
This manga volume begins an interesting (albeit strange!) story.
Nikaido-chan is a young girl who 'blends into the background', and whose name people forget constantly. She went to middle school (and now high school) with popular but quiet Koga-kun. When she is hanging out in the outdoors in the middle of the night and enjoying the quiet, she sees her classmate, who tells her that he is actually an alien (or, more accurately, he is cohabiting the same body and borrowing his body when he sleeps).
Is he actually an alien? Is he insane? Is she the one who is insane? All questions I want answered and will have to continue to read on to find out!
I don't want to spoil anything by saying too much, so I just want to say this story is one that I was surprisingly taken in by. A lot of mystery surrounding the characters and their motivations, and it's something I look forward to reading more of.
Many thanks to NetGalley and Kodansha for the complimentary ARC in exchange for an honest review.
