I'm confused as to how to rate this. I've never rated a manga. It is not even finished, it is already almost at chapter 90 and going. I'll figure out how to organize this review as I keep reading more volumes. VOLUME 1 First 7 (+ 0.5) chapters. I love the idea. Volumes are incredibly short, though. The art is a little amateurish, but I guess most mangas are like that. Not the characters nor the story are developed to a substantial extent, but it's so blatant that the whole point of all of it is simply the roles of the characters and the easing of modern age'sexistential dread and alienation.

VOLUME 2

Chapters 8-15.5. I enjoyed this one better. There's more variety of scenes and it helps building the feeling that they're a real family. The scenarios were very well chosen, in my opinion. They really make you feel the closeness between the protagonists. Their relationship grows very charmingly.

I agree with the author; this world needs a Senko-san. You'll struggle to find a story that accomplishes its goal so easily. It is as simple as a stone but oh so effective. I can't help but agree with Senko-san ideals also. She's right about everything. Human beings wouldn't be so shitty if they were pampered more often. In my own more-than-eight-centuries dealing with them, I can tell that they need some serious pampering more than they need bread. They get all stupid with politics and all kinds of twisted fuckery because they can't just shut up and let Senko-san pamper them.

The existence of such a character heals your soul... if you let it.
