Sweat and Soap, Vol. 3 by Kintetsu Yamada
5.0

It is just so refreshing to see a relationship done with maturity and realistic dialogue.

Asako comes clean and gets to talk to her boss about her love life, which is a really sweet moment when she realizes how much she likes Natori. Natori goes out of town with his co-worker and finds out she likes him too. In any other, lesser relationship manga, it would have been a love triangle blah blah blah storyline. But here Natori lets her know he doesn't see her that way and they handle it like adults. Natori and Asako also handle it after in such a cute and well done way. Then Natori and Asako go on a trip together for his birthday and it's just so dang sweet.

I just love this manga so much. So wholesome and well done with a lot of great characters and storyline. Every time I read a new volume I just enjoy myself the entire time. I never want this to end but all good stories do. Another 5 out of 5.
