Biographical Notes:

Jun Mayuzuki is best known for being the author & artist of Sayonara Daisy, Kowloon Generic Romance, Mangaka Gohan Nisshi, and After the Rain.

Title Notes:

Kowloon Generic Romance is an ongoing work by Jun Mayuzuki, the creator of the critically acclaimed romance manga After the Rain.

With Kowloon Generic Romance, Jun Mayuzuki provides a series of sexy slice- of-life vignettes that are sure to please tasteful and dignified readers.

This author is the same author who wrote After the Rain, another mature, slow-burn romance that was a slice-of-life. I was expecting a lot of similarities between the two, but this manga has completely blown my expectations away – you can really tell the author has matured and changed as a storyteller.
