started reading Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou by Hitoshi Ashinano

Hitoshi Ashinano: Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou (2023, Seven Seas Entertainment, LLC) 5 stars

This manga is one of my absolute favourites. I haven't read it in a long time, and then it was as translated scans I found online.

I ordered the remaining three volumes earlier today. #Manga #Reading @bookstodon@a.gup.pe
