Manga inspiration

The stories Takako Shimura sensei write position us as the awkward observers of her characters. I find her characters very suffocating and hard to watch. But, isn't this life? Humans who are not cool, but doing things that make themselves happy and then feel guilty about it because it is not normal.
In the story, we follow two brothers who are obviously in love with each other but have complex ways to deal with incest.

Reference this for characters who are not true to their actions

In this story, Takako Shimura sensei explores unrequited love. And love rediscovered.

I like the whimsical art style of Aki Irie sensei.

Read this to study how to normalise pedophiles.

Aki Irie sensei's taisho awards work.

I'm envious of yuhki kamatani sensei. She has snown versatility in story writing from doing a chuuni style ninja story to this a slice of life story about LGBTQIA struggles.

My favourite story arc is the one with the old men and his partner.

Slight nitpicking is characters here tend to be static with small character growth-- which is not very statisfying from a reader POV. But, this is probably because it is an aggregator of a few short stories from many characters.

Like the 80-90s comedy vibes of Syundei sensei. Fluff story reference.

Wow I can't remember why this was here.

Probably to study fluff.

Not sure what sort of slice of life this is but more like fantasy at the rate the impossibility this is going.

Nice clean art tho.
