Kimi wa Houkago Insomnia

The absolute scanlation golem does it again. Thanks for the work!
 
This is sooo good! The art, the story, the characters, I love it all! But the tragedy tag should better stay away from this series! 😤
 
I have a weird personal connection with this manga. One of my hobbies is astrophotography, and I visited Noto peninsula in summer 2017 with the goal to capture an amazing nightsky at Rokko-saki lighthouse, the northern-most point of the peninsula. I planned everything beforehand, like the best spot away from any light pollution and the milkyway's position. Unfortunately, the only night I stayed there in a minshuku, it was cloudy and it started pouring. I was really disappointed like the MC in the manga. At least I could enjoy some better weather the day before and after my stay at Rokko-saki. I visited some places which are mentioned in the manga such as battleship island.

Fast forward to fall 2019. I was staying in Ishigaki island for a few days (also with astrophotography in mind) and I discovered a weekly manga magazine in a bookstore, with Magari on the cover. I immediately liked the art and asked for the tankoubon, but they didn't have it. I got the first volume a few days later in Kyushu, and it was my first manga I got in Japan in 2019. I then realized it was from the same artist as Ketchin, Fujiyama-san and Chion-san, which I enjoyed a lot.
 
I have a really bad feeling
of what's going to happen at the end of the story.
I like Chion and Fujiyama though.
 
man the synopsis really interested me but now i read these comments and its making me not want to read. I cant touch shit with tragedy so..
 
I don't think that the will have a sad end liké your lie in april and I Hope it. Makoto is the auhor of chion and fujiyama and those 2 manga have an happy end so i fucking Hope this manga will also have an happy end or i will cry like never ...
 
There were some inclinations of tragedy, but there is neither tag and the problem itself
is actually cured, it is just her insecurity towards the illness that is the problem
Don't be discouraged and read because there is no tragedy.
 
@Raskaro I'm really trusting you on that one, I just catched the tragedy hints now that I'm re-reading it (bc updates take so long lol) and shit hitted me hard :(
 
Good to see a series about high schoolers falling in love that features actual high schoolers with actual emotions, and not moeblob wish fulfilment.

Either way, Nakami and Magari already share a level of intimacy so high that them having “the moment” where they finally admit they’re dating is a forgone conclusion. It really is beautiful seeing two people experience something like that.
 
@zabent It is up to date, don't worry. Scanlator prefers working with the published volumes instead of a weekly fashion. But don't fret: they will translate at the speed of light once the volume is out. Not even kidding.
