Joshi Kausei · review
This is a slice of life manga mainly revolving around a girl and her two friends, and their every day interactions. Although there are a few flashback scenes to help aid in understanding the characters, the majority takes place in the present. As there is no dialogue and barely any text, this makes for an easy, fast, and relaxing read. At first, I was a little annoyed by all the upskirt shots/borderline sexual innuendos that came up, but after a while somehow, it seemed to sink in as just the manga style, and doesn't bother me anymore (i.e. doesn't feel like straight up fan service). Inaddition, I liked that the girls are drawn somewhat normally - that is, they have little fat rolls, regular busts, they look short, etc.
Anyway, the take away is that it's a glimpse of regular teen girl's life in Japan - it focuses on youth, curiosity, the ordinary and of friendship. I also found it to be a great palate cleanser between heavier manga. Recommended.
