Side notes: I put notice on this manga when it's nominated for Manga Taisho last year. The same manga has also been on the most popular manga lists* too so it's no wonder that it's finally been published on English. The art is on great level as you can wait from the author and story is on good level too. Though as I'm not the biggest fan of Josei it's good not to be too much irritated while reading the first published chapter online. I just can't take the model of every woman wanting to be married and have a family before they hit some certain age. That's just too much hassle and pressure that they take onto themselves... but well everyone has their hopes and wishes for the life.^-^ 

* Three times on Kono Manga ga Sugoi -lists (2015-2017).

Main character

Sonea Rinko, 30/33
