Synopsis

It all started with the death of one of the Astronomy Club's members. From this, the rumored ghost of the club came to life.

Grumpy insomniac Ganta Nakami stumbles across the moderately rebellious yet easygoing Isaki Magari in the Astronomy Club's abandoned observatory. Magari is jolted awake and tries to escape from the scene, only to have a broken door prevent that, forcing the two inside. The two forge an unlikely friendship, leading them to use the observatory as a safe space for them to interact.

Kimi wa Houkago Insomnia follows the insomniacs Nakami and Magari's time in the starlit observatory as they help each other cope with insomnia and the lasting effects it has on student life.

[Written by MAL Rewrite]

The series is about two classmates who suffer insomnia and find their refuge in a mothballed school observatory. As a school life manga it's pretty standard, one fits in with a popular clique, and the other is a misfit because of irritability caused by lack of sleep, and they interact differently with the popular girl in class.

However, it's in how the two deal with their insomnia and their unexpected chemistry that really the main draw of this title. The leisurely pace also makes it a relaxing read.

The manga portrays loneliness, trauma, friendship, and love in a touching and realistic manner. The characters have depth and ...

Mixed Feelings
Preliminary (18/125 eps)
I started reading Kimi wa Houkago Insomnia from the "you should read this manga" thread. They have some of the manga I am enjoying right now, so I figured there's no shame in trying.

They formed an astronomy club for the right to the room they use to sleep in the day and started doing some photograph.

So far, the plot is being true to themself. Heavy on the romance side with ...
