Plus-Sized Elf Vol. 1

Synecdoche

DID NOT FINISH: 11%

---

This was not written for my demographic and it's on me for not flipping through a few more of the pages before taking it out from the library. I've read one other manga with a plus size character (Ugly Duckling's Love Revolution Series) and it was really sweet, but this one is all fan service and fetishizing. Which it that's what you're looking for, go for it but it was 100% not for me.
