Pretty, light and sweet
This manga might not be one of my top favorite manga’s but I quite enjoyed reading it. Something about Ai and his job, being a kimono dyer, really sparked my imagination and curiosity about fabrics, colors and art.
The story revolves around Ai and family friend Tokiwa, who is a fashion designer, and their seemingly unrequited torturing love...but things are not quite what they seem. Tokiwa wants Ai’s professional help with a color he would like but Ai wants a little (or a lot) more than just a professional relationship with Tokiwa.
It’s a sweet, sensual, somewhat predictable romantic story and although the plot and characters aren’t the finest the art is quite lovely and makes for a good read. It’s a story with drama without being dramatic. I would definitely recommend it if you are looking for something short, light, pretty and not to heavy or emotional. It’s a nice manga for a lazy afternoon when you just want to smile.
