The End of the World With You
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_End_of_the_World_With_You
A live-action television drama adaptation was broadcast on Asahi Broadcasting Corporation from January 30, 2023, to March 20, 2023
I omitted from my list:
* After Hours which I found dark.
* Chasing After Aoi Koshiba which is a older woman reminiscing at a reunion about the love of her high school years.
* Even Though We are Adults, which I own but haven't read
* How We Do Relationship per the one above.
@yon Pick a fav Humm
Since I focus on the light novel it wouldn't be Othersid Picnic. Which is my top rank light novel.
In the years they were being published it would have been
* Doughnuts under a Crescent Moon
* Catch these hands
* And currently Monthly in the Garden with My Landlord
Doughnuts features a #asexual alloromantic. Coming to terms with that and finding love is the focus.
Catch these Hands a pair of former delinquents and is probably the most original (in a good way)
Monthy is fresh and fun featuring an ex #idol. You can see why that would interest me.
The two of them are pretty much like that. Is the truest to the #SliceOfLife genre. But ends rather abruptly.
She Loves to cook, she loves to eat is the next closet and features asexual alloromantics. And a person with an eating disorder as a side character. It can get quite serious and has lots of cooking and eating sequences. It is not about eating disorders though. It's about found family and enjoying life as your true self. Plus lots of good food.
Our Teachers are Dating would be my choice for I want something happy and light. Followed by Monthy in the Garden.
Forced to pick one I would go with Catch These Hands.
Some good ones feature adults MCs are
Doughnuts under a Crescent Moon
Our Teachers are Dating
The Two of Them are Pretty much Like This
She Loves to Cook, and She Love to Eat
Monthly in the Garden with my Landlady
Otherside Picnic
Catch These Hands
They are all #Yuri because that is what I mainly read. #Josei #Manga and or #LightNovel

Soshite, Hare ni Naru (And it will be sunny)
Second manga by the same author and I have very similar feelings after reading. It's warm, nice and family-focused but at the same time has a bit of a sad streak going on. Especially if you are able to identify with one of the characters or rather with the issues they handle. I know I did... and kinda felt seen for that. My only issue with this mangaka is that she doesn't seem to like rounding up and detailing her stories, they feel very free-flowing

#wordweavers 26. Would your characters fit into anyone else’s book world?
Otherside Picnic. They would give the characters a run for their money.
Most Josei Yuri. And they would be happier for the lack of supernatural elements. "After Hours" especially.
Definitely not S-type.
King in Limbo by Ai Tanaka.
Didn't expect the sci-fi mystery josei about diving into people's mind to work for me 'cause of the sci-fi factor but it really did. Love both main characters, love their dynamic, love the problem and the way it unraveled. "Cool" is probably the best word to describe it.
Even though I shouldn't be surprised that I liked this manga since I also enjoyed Apple Children of Aeon by the same author though the stories have absolutely different vibes. Both take turns I didn't quite expect, not plot twists as such but rather the direction I didn't think they'd follow
