Everyday pressures around Hiroto

In this second volume, Hiroto’s relaxed approach to life meets the anxieties of the people around him. His friend Hideki worries about becoming a father, Yomogi struggles with the demands of her real estate job, and Akari contends with low self-confidence. The Asagaya Tanabata Festival brings these tensions together, placing Hiroto’s outlook in the middle of a difficult summer for his circle. The volume looks at how people cope with uncertainty, work stress, impending parenthood, and grief—and how one person’s way of facing life can be hard for others to understand.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Manga readers interested in contemporary everyday-life stories and relationships.
  • Readers drawn to stories about work pressure, parenthood, self-confidence, and uncertainty.
  • Those following Hiroto and the people in his circle from the first volume.

Book overview

With a carefree outlook on life, Hiroto knows better than anyone that slowing down is sometimes the best way to move forward.

At 29 years old, carefree Hiroto Ikuta doesn't have a girlfriend, a full-time job, or a plan for the future--and he couldn't be happier. Hiroto's breezy attitude isn't easy for everyone to understand, though. In a world filled with anxiety, confusion, and grief, Hiroto and the people who surround him are all just doing their best to figure out this thing called life.

The summer weather isn't the only thing heating up around Hiroto's little family home. Hiroto's best friend, Hideki, starts growing increasingly worried about becoming a father; Yomogi, Hiroto's new friend, begins to crack under the stress of her busy real estate job; and Natsumi's friend Akari struggles with her self-confidence. For people under so much pressure, Hiroto's laid-back demeanor can be downright frustrating. But with things reaching their boiling point at the Asagaya Tanabata Festival, Hiroto's positive outlook might be exactly what everyone needs to relieve the tension.
