I really like this manga. It might be one of my favourite feel-good Yuri manga, due to it just fully embracing what it is and creating a simple story with simple characters. It is not trying to change anything and although it feels generic, it is very amazing for what it is.
I really like the simplicity of the story. They just placed these two characters into one household and we see their life. It is really sweet to see and there are some genuinely funny and emotional moments where I teared up a bit. The arc that both characters went through feels very believable,
...
especially for Akebi. It doesn't have a lot of subplots either, so the story is very focused to developing these two characters and their relationship with each other.
Akebi, other than being drawn very adorably, is surprisingly amazing. She has her very unique quirks, like her nervousness, timidity and her tendency to just eat everything given to her. I also really like that they managed to do something about the weird-prodigy archetype character by just simply adding a one-sided love to her. She never understands what love means, so the only thing that she could convey is through gifts. She is oddly clueless with things around her, but could become very protective. Her arc with her mother feels very pure, as it was a simple case of misunderstanding and a strong lack of communications between the two. She feels genuine and she has a lot of very, very cute moments. Love Akebi.
Little Sister, similar to Akebi, is also surprisingly amazing. Although I feel like that her luck towards men was played off a little too much, I really feel that it gives a lot to her arc and some of the conflict in the story. I really think that her character are very compatible with Akebi and their dynamic with each other is very understandable and not forced at all. Her character feels like a plot device of what Akebi needed to change and I really like that. They are quite different in some ways, but due to that differences, they managed to fill up what the other lacks. I really like their relationship, but I'm kinda feeling conflicted to see them being in a relationship. Maybe I could be wrong.
Overall, it is a simple story that just makes you feel a lot of things. Whether that feeling is happy, sad or angry, this manga is very nice-to-read. I like it.
