I have never seen a manga with sign language. It was interesting to see how Japanese sign language is different and how the manga shows the culture very well.
I found the story sweet and fun. It’s a quick read. I like the first love innocence and the chance to see how they are going to come together as a couple. I can’t explain well why I loved it so much, probably just because it makes me so happy. There’s not a lot that happens, but I think it sets up for the rest of the series so well. It’s very adorable, and I would recommend to all romance manga lovers.
