  • Kaguya-sama - Love Is War. i enjoyed Oshi No Ko in anime form & this is the author's earlier work. first three volumes are in color. it's a romcom that's more comedy than romance.
  • Sometimes Even Reality Is a Lie: teenage first-love, twist is that an early mistake means her parents think he's a girl and not a date, and he just goes full into crossdressing when they're together rather than come clean. whole thing's in color and more visually impressive than the others on my list here.
  • Gabriel Dropout: comedy/slice of life where both angels and devils visit earth undercover, and sort of all end up in a role reversal where the devils are super naive and eager to please while the angels are manipulative or lazy. i put down Nichijou in favor of this: it fills the same "light comedy" niche while being a little more varied and a lot less disjointed.

as always, recs welcome -- especially for more stuff that's in color.

Have you read Mousou Telepathy by any chance?

What a sad time it was when Mousou Telepathy and Tomo-chan both ended their daily releases!

That was a special era indeed.
