SpectreSouls's manga / #slice of life(4)

•Summary: [Taichi, impoverished, underemployed and hungry, falls onto Kouhei, a deaf boy with great homemade obento, who's looking for a note-taker to help him understand his college classes. Slowly, they come to respect and like each other, but with a disability like hearing loss, misunderstandings arise, and Kouhei has slipped into isolation and loneliness all too easily. Will Taichi be able to pull him back into a spirited life?] •My Ratings: story - 10/10 relationship - 10/10 overall - 10/10 recommend - absolutely •My Thoughts: The couple is very realistic, I was rooting for them the whole time. The HOH and Deaf representation feels realistic as well, I know Japanese Deaf culture is bound to be different than here in the U.S., but it feels very well done and nuanced, so props to the author for that.
