Winter 2022

O brother, the scene is something like this that there is a simple boy named Wakana Gojou who is obsessed with making “Hina Dolls” since childhood. While other boys go out and roam around, he sits at home and keeps sewing clothes for the girls. But the poor boy is afraid that if anyone comes to know about it, everyone will make fun of him, so he has kept this secret hidden in his heart.

Then enters Marin Kitagawa, who is a very “bomb” type girl and is loved by everyone in the school. Where is that fat Gojou and where is this Haseena – there was no match between the two! But fate took a turn when Marin caught Gojou operating a sewing machine. Instead of joking, she happily told him that she was fond of cosplay but had no idea how to sew capris. So what, she asked for Gojou’s help and together they started making one costume after another. While working together, they never realized when their hearts met. It’s a really crazy love story, brother!

150 years ago, the people of Hinomoto City were freed from samurai rule and lived peacefully, worshipping the mysterious demon who freed them as a god. Destined to mine the stones that would become the demon’s prey, Musashi learned the harsh truth: humanity was enslaved by beings from another dimension, and the samurai were the last bastion fighting for freedom. Hiding his true feelings from his comrades and estranged from his childhood friend Kanemaki Kojiro, Musashi lived in fear until graduation day.

When the graduates arrived at the mine, they were terrified by the inhumane treatment of the miners and the bizarre behavior of their supervisors. However, with Kojiro’s help, Musashi managed to persevere. While the demon leader caused chaos in the quarry, Musashi was once again saved from death by the samurai of the Takeda clan. Having recovered from his humiliation and with a yearning for adventure in his heart, Musashi embarks on a journey to become a samurai and establish his own clan!

So the point is that this is the entire story of the very famous slice-of-life anime and manga called “Sasaki and Miyano.”

The best thing about this series is that there is no unnecessary drama in it. The friendship that starts with sharing a BL manga, turns into a soft romance in a very cute and slow-burn way. It is a lot of fun to watch Miyano blushing at every little thing and Sasaki teasing him.
