One day while having lunch in the Literature Club room, Kanon learns about a surprising club tradition from Miura-sensei. Every year, club members spend summer break writing something for the school’s literature contest. Miura-sensei surprises Kanon even further by complimenting her writing and encouraging her to enter something for that year’s contest. Though Kanon is initially reluctant, she later finds herself mulling over everything that’s happened since she lost her hearing and met Saki. Could there be a story in there somewhere? Meanwhile, Saki gets roped into playing piano for the upcoming choir contest. Now she just has to find the perfect song…and hope her classmates can accept Kanon in the choir.
Biographical Notes:
Kuzuhiro has written and illustrated several yuri manga, including Love Death, Ani No Yome To Kurashiteimasu, and Yuri Hime Wildrose. Kuzushiro’s latest series, the acclaimed yuri manga, The Moon on a Rainy Night, is being published in English by Kodansha.
Title Notes:
- HARD-OF-HEARING REPRESENTATION: Like the wildly popular romance manga A Sign of Affection and A Silent Voice, this series offers a nuanced protrayal of hearing impairment against the backdrop of a tender romance.
- A WELL-PACED YURI MELODRAMA: The relationship between the two female leads is a slow boil, with the usual misunderstandings and romantic rivals adding to the tension, reminiscent of the hits Whisper Me a Love Song and Bloom Into You.
