海猫荘days [Umineko-sō Days] #2

The second volume of Umineko-sō Days by Naoko Kodama presents a wonderfully domestic scene: a blonde girl in a burger-print t-shirt stands at a kitchen counter with a knife and fresh vegetables, while a taller brunette with a headband looks on holding a mixing bowl. The warm, lived-in mood captures exactly the kind of quiet, everyday camaraderie that makes slice-of-life manga so appealing. If you enjoy stories centered on shared meals and the small rituals of cohabitation, this volume looks like a genuinely cozy read.
