The Farthest Love in the World 1 by Mitsuaki Asou
Ayumu Isuzu lives in a world without sound. Though the world often fails to provide him with important information, Ayumu knows two things for sure: ‘Thank you’ and ‘Sorry’ look similar in sign language and he can’t ignore an unconscious man with a violin he finds in the bushes. When Isuzu pulls Touka, a brash and impulsive violin student, from the brush and takes him home, he starts a tentative friendship with Touka that becomes the catalyst these two need…
A new BL manga from the creator of Re:Birth!

Here and There and Us 1 by Thanat
There’s more than meets the eye with Makoto Sonoki, the seemingly standoffish loner of their grade. At least, that’s what Seiya Majima discovers after he and Sonoki are placed in the same class. Taking a sudden interest in his lowkey classmate, Majima asks for Sonoki’s phone number and can’t stop poking his nose in Sonoki’s business.
Popular and outgoing Majima is the last person Sonoki could befriend. Or, that’s what Sonoki thought. But after the barrage of text messages, calls, and days spent together, Sonoki realizes there’s more to Majima than his showy extroversion… and maybe something more between them?
Comedic with a touch of drama, Here and There and Us is a story about unlikely matches and love found in the slow-paced days of youth.

Here and There and Us 2 by Thanat
Much like how they were brought together by chance, Makoto Sonoki and Seiya Majima are separated by chance at the start of their third year. Still, Sonoki and Majima find slivers of time to spend time together as they prepare for life after high school… but is this time enough? As the days pass, Sonoki feels more uneasy about his relationship with Majima. Why does he feel irritated when he sees Majima chatting with other people? Is he even that close with Majima? Has worrying about Majima so much caused his grades to go down?
…Is it normal to feel this way about a friend? The buds of love from the first volume finally bloom in this volume of Here and There and Us!
