2. Jujutsu Kaisen 12 by Gege Akutami

I read these chapters in simulpub, but I decided to reread since S2 is airing. Also, as a Nanami stan, I guess I like hurting myself. LOL

1. After the Rain 1 by Jun Mayuzuki

I've skipped this one for a long time because I'm not a fan of age gap romances & this one features a pairing with a huge one, but it turns out this isn't like that at all. Akira was the star of her high school track team until she was injured & Kondo is a divorced single father. She has a crush on him & he knows she's off-limits. Less a romance & more a picking up the pieces to move on. (And I'm glad for it!)

It's been a while, but to commemorate my return to Masto, I'm starting a reading thread for the month! It's silly but writing these mini-reviews encouraged me to read more! Let's go! ✨
