Futago has offered to me the possibility that there are mangas out there that, right down to the bone, have the edge and charm to offer the reader a story that feels real.
Having only read 9 chapters, waiting (somewhat impatiently) for the next, I can't be a good judge, but what I've seen so far is incredibly promising.
Futago tells the story of two unidentical twins who have grown up apart. One is a woman enslaved to her writing craft-Yukari, often not leaving her room in her apartment for days until she can get the next chapter down, the other is a feminine, married lady named

I'm really enjoying this manga!
Futago is about twin sisters that doesn't look alike. One is black-haired, lovely, quiet, when the other is the complete opposite. Their parents divorced and they got separated, but now, because of the appearence of a strange young guy, they are together again. It's a josei, but has something of shoujo... how can I explain it? All of the character give me pureness *_* The art is lovely, but nothing OMG outstanding, and sometimes makes me remember of Paradise Kiss (but better). If you're a shoujo/josei fan, read this manga :)

Futago was a good read for an evening! I loved the art-style (has some similar vibes with Nana and Paradise Kiss for me) and how humane the whole story was.
We can see the development of each character, even if this manga is really short. Starting with sisters, that went back and forth from housewives to hard-workers. Why they were twins with so many differences? And how people perceive them. We can also see the developments in male characters, that, of course, break some hearts in order to understand their feelings and emotions. At least, I'm thankful they figured they heart and mind out. That's what, ... |
