How Do We Relationship? Vol. 13

A romance of convenience between two college women soon becomes the real thing.

Shy Miwa has always dreamed of finding love, but living in small-town Japan made finding the right match difficult—especially since she likes girls! Even going away to college didn’t seem to help, until one day her outgoing classmate Saeko suggests they might as well start dating each other since it’s not like either of them has other options.

Despite her best efforts to keep things going, Saeko finally realized that she and Yuria needed to break up, and while they’re both sad to say goodbye, the end of their relationship doesn’t hit as hard as Saeko thought it would. In fact, she’s kind of looking forward to discovering what living for herself feels like—and just in time for job-search season to begin! Trying to land a job and a life purpose at the same time is a little stressful, but luckily Saeko and Miwa’s friendship has started to flourish again, right when they both need it most.
