Synopsis

Pressured by her friends and family to fall in love, office worker Hinako Uno puts a lot of effort into her appearance and demeanor in order to fit into the image of "an ideal young woman." She believes that if she is able to make someone fall in love with her, then she can love herself in return—but this does not turn out to be the case. After rejecting another confession, Hinako feels like a flawed human for being unable to love.

Concurrently, Hinako's senior at work Asahi Satou becomes her sister's official guardian and the family's breadwinner after their last living relative dies. Wanting to provide for her sister as best as she can, she pays no attention to matters she deems unnecessary, such as love.

One night, as Hinako cries on a bench, Asahi bumps into her and offers her a bag of doughnuts as consolation. Sharing a moment of vulnerability, they open up to one another, marking the start of a relationship that might just be what both women needed.

If you are something akin to Demiromantic/Demisexual, and/or Lesbian, this will probably be extremely down your ally. It's centers itself on their struggle with Amatonormativity, finding out their attractions towards each other, their attachments with family and friends. As well as them finding the words to communicate their feelings (which is hardard for Asahi). They also explore small meaningful, satisfactory forms of physical affection/intimacy.

Asahi and Hinako have a few aroace traits imo. Don't believe me? Just give it a read.
The characters are all pretty dynamic, the story is such a “feels good” tale as you see it progress into resolving their discomfort. The characters show ...

Mixed Feelings
This GL manga series has a lot going for it. The main characters are compelling and each have their own internal conflict to work through. The relationship that develops between them is very sweet, and the way they get to know each other feels very natural. What was frustrating, however, was the introduction of a love triangle-esque situation. This series already had enough going on without that, especially because both main characters are both clearly coded as being on the aro and ace spectrums, and they already have a hard time understanding their feelings for each other. Seeing them figure out what love looked like ...

Preliminary (10/20 eps)
Spoiler
If Uno was pressured by her parents to fall in love and she knew she didn't like men that way, why was she trying to like men in the first place? The story tries to make her a lesbian, but even though a person hasn't come out or realized, there will be signs. She would like female characters from shows or books, or even have a crush on a girl/woman she meets in life. And someone who is questioning their attraction probably would panic and try to be straight, until they finally admit that they actually like someone of the same gender, or nobody at ...
