The opening volume of matoba's supernatural romantic comedy sets a delightfully mismatched tone right from the cover: a dreamy, long-haired blonde in an elaborate pink ruffled dress — with an adorable round creature perched on her head — stands beside a stoic silver-haired young man in a blue uniform, clipboard in hand and clearly unimpressed. The contrast between her soft, whimsical elegance and his guarded composure tells you everything you need to know about the charming dynamic at the heart of this 2018 Yen Press release. If you enjoy comedy built on endearing opposites, this first volume is a wonderfully inviting place to start.
