A Condition Called Love Vol. 07

A Condition Called Love Vol. 07, a sweet new shojo romance manga from the creator of Wake Up, Sleeping Beauty! 

Hotaru doesn’t need a boyfriend. But an act of kindness to a classmate going through a breakup opens a door she never thought to step through, in and everything begins to change… A sweet new shojo romance manga from the creator of Wake Up, Sleeping Beauty!

Hotaru is a 16-year-old high school first year who has always been ambivalent about love, preferring instead to have a lively life with her family and friends. So when she sees her schoolmate, Hananoi-kun, sitting in the snow after a messy, public breakup, she thinks nothing of offering to share her umbrella. But when he asks her out in the middle of her classroom the next day, she can’t help but feel that her life is about to change in a big way…

Biographical Notes:

Shojo manga artist Megumi Morino’s first manga published in English was the ghostly romance series Wake Up, Sleeping Beauty. Their latest is the digital-first hit A Condition Called Love, which is also available in print from Kodansha.

Title Notes:

It’s hard for a manga to succeed without an anime-but well-written shojo manga with appealing, strong protagonists and skillful illustrations have broken out, and A Condition Called Love is set to be the next A Sign of Affection, Skip and Loafer, and Ao Haru Ride.

A Condition Called Love is one of Kodansha’s top-selling digital shojo series, and a print edition will sell online to collectors and in stores to new readers drawn to physical retail faves like Love in Focus and That Wolf-Boy Is Mine! Ages 13 and up.
