Manga Review: You & Me, Etc. by Kyugo


Rating (Out of 5): ~3
Publisher: Blu Manga
Release Date: 2011
Volumes: 1.
Spoilers?: No.

Goodreads Synopsis:

Iku and Keita have been buddies since childhood, and have played sports together their whole lives... until their final year in middle school, when Keita's baseball career abruptly ended as a result of the severe injuries he sustained when saving Iku from being hit by a truck. Ever since that accident, Iku has distanced himself from both the game and his friend, presumably out of guilt. Can these two friends patch up their differences, and become something more...?

Review:

This volume had three main stories. One about two guys who were in baseball together, and one of them got injured. Another short one about classmates, one guy who catches two guys fooling around, and he’s already thinking he needs something new in his life. The last one about the main guy and his friends son.
The one about the two baseball buddies I found really sweet. I liked their connection, and how they reacted after the one got hurt. The ending, and the second chapter, were very cute. The third one, about the friends son, was rather sad, but very sweet in the end.
I was impressed with the depth to the characters and the story in this one. The artwork was okay, and there wasn’t much smut, but the romances were still sweet. I quite enjoyed this one.
