I finished 若草物語, and have decided I’ll read 花物語 manga next, so I won’t have it hanging over me. After that, I can take a nice breather by reading through the rest of 青い花
Thx to everyone who voted in the short while the poll was up
Update: I somehow wound up starting 若草物語 2 instead, but I guess this will be my plan for whenever I get through it
They look to be about the same length volume-wise, so I voted for ささやく since it seems to be a bit more well-known, so you’ll have more people to chat about it with.
朝顔と加瀬さん was my 2nd yuri, ささ恋 was my 6th… But this is sort of one of those “can’t go wrong either way” moments.
That said 加瀬さん is 5 volumes, with a follow-up series 山田と加瀬さん (where they’re in college) that is ongoing - they’re listed together in Natively. ささこ恋 vol 11 will be out in a week, and is still ongoing.
Idk I voted for ささ恋 in the end, b/c it’s less conventional, and it’s the one of the two that I still read every month (tho one of these months, it would be nice to pick 加瀬さん back up again - that little gardener 山田 is sooo adorable)
Seeing this as an option for you, you might like a series were a detective solves cases together with a ghost: 警視庁幽霊係 (ノン・ノベル 808) | L30??. Until now just the first volume is on LN, though. I own four, so far.
Looks like I waited too long - now there’s a tie! Thanks to マウス being in the lead when I last checked, my subconscious seems to have settled on that though. Thanks everyone for voting!
