Sweat and Soap, vol 6

 

Today's post is on Sweat and Soap, vol 6 by Kintestu Yamada. It is 192 pages long and is published by Kodansha Comics. The cover is Asako and Natori being cute. As it is the sixth volume in the series, you need to have read the first five volumes to understand the story. The intended reader is someone who likes sweet josei manga love stories. There is no foul language, mild sex and sexuality, and no violence in this manga. The story is told from third person of the main characters, Asako and Natori. There Be Spoilers Ahead.

From the back of the book- Wouldn't It Be Nice
Despite all the anxieties and obstacles, Asako and Natori's relationship has proven its staying power. Since deciding to move in together, they've found a home they both likes, and a new chapter in both their lives has begun! But now that they've taken this adult step, there's an even bigger one looming up the staircase...Can Askao even think about marriage without breaking a sweat?

Review- This volume shows what makes this series to great, Asako and Natori's communication skills. They run into some small trouble from misunderstanding what the other wants and they have to have a adult conversation about it. It is very normal, the mild fight is seen as a good thing and they come together to work towards a solution. The art continues to be solid, the side characters are fun and memorable, and the story is sweet but realistic. I recommend this series. 

I give this volume a Five out of Five stars. I get nothing for my review and I bought this manga with my own money.
