So I thought I retired from romance genre a long time ago until just yesterday, I came across Horimiya and literally marathoned it in one go. I found it a lot different than other romances that I've read so far. It was cute, comedic, did have character development and very well paced story line. I got hooked just by reading the first chapter. Not to mention, the art is dazzling.
So is there anything else out there like this? The focus isn't necessarily romance, rather friendship.
And I dunno if it's just me, but I found the fact that the main male protagonist isn't very manly interesting.
Spoiler (mouse over to view)
lower eyelashes are longer than girls, starts off with long hair, has a prettier face than most of the girls and is literally told that by multiple characters, 48 kg which is the same weight as his girlfriend
I always liked the so called "trap" thingie
Another thing that I found interesting is the fact that both main protagonist have different personality from their appearance. And the fact that eventually they'll give out the secret to their close friends.
Tattoos and piercings...that was just different...in a good way!
So is there anything out there?
Like I said, doesn't necessarily have to be romance. Pretty art is a must. And interesting characters would also be a plus.
Thanks in advance
