Get ready to cry like a baby. Reading this was so bittersweet and comforting. Like hot honey on a buttered biscuit. The art-style is beautiful and the stories themselves so captivating. I can't even decide which was my favorite. They made me wish that they weren't just "short stories". Nagabe has to turn these into whole mangas. I would totally read each of these again if he turns them into bull-blown books. I'd say these stories were like a gently hug. Everything from the characters to the settings and the circumstances within each part was stunning. It was a bit challenging to find each storybecause they are part of a larger unit titled something like "Love between different species" and are mixed in with works of different authors. But I enjoyed them all and believe it was worth the effort.
10/10 would read again.
