Oof, I was in Nao's shoes until about two years ago, a 30+ living with his parents because there was no reason to leave, up until I felt too constricted and left. I wasn't quite as much of a dunce in the house chores department, but it definitely felt rather odd not to have the noise of other people around you.

It feels funny when you stumble upon manga like this in between ecchi romcoms, isekais, shounens and drama factories

I belong to the "left house in small town as soon as i could" camp, but after a few years of living in meh place with good rent and transit i get what getting stuck in comfortable rut means

Man, I can understand Nao. You just feel like you only go life instead of living a life when you're just with your parents. You never try anything new, you don't try to make friends, and you let someone else make decisions for you. You're not responsible for your life at all.

So her decision to move in with Ayumu, and feel free to live life and go through hardships is inspiring. She might not know how to live, but she's willing to learn! Her parents will be proud!

Ayumu has a lot to say about Tokyo, but it's clear she still has some love for her hometown. However, she was tired of needing to fulfill a "responsibility", so she left to make her own. I wonder how she and Nao will be getting along. The country bumpkin who's responsible for herself, and the sheltered Tokyo citizen It's a nice contrast!

I totally get this. Even going to the big city that's just an hour over feels so dazzling to me... Although living with my parents, I would related to Nao more tbh. It would take a lifetime to eat everything here, or imagine going to every store, I always have those thoughts.

More than that I'm super happy to see a work by Est Em again. I loved Golondrina, I hope someone picks it up again.

Ahh, Golondrina... That's the hiatus that hurts me the most because the story was left at such a climax moment. They should let her draw the 6th volume already, she tweets once almost every year that she wants to finish it. :meguuusad:
