15 Minutes Before We Really Date #1

The opening volume of Perico's romantic manga sets its mood perfectly with two quietly charged café moments — a dark-haired young woman absently stirring her coffee while lost in thought, and a flustered blond boy caught mid-sip, wide-eyed and blushing. That lingering in-between feeling — not quite strangers, not quite together — radiates from every panel of this charming Yen Press release. If slow-burn romance built on stolen glances and nervous drinks is your thing, volume one of 15 Minutes Before We Really Date is a very promising place to start.
