Sweat and Soap, Vol. 8

Today's manga post is on Sweat and Soap, Vol. 8 by Kintetsu Yamada. It is 192 pages long and is published by Kodansha Comics. The cover has the two main characters dressed for the beach on it. As it is the eighth in the series, you need to have read the first seven volumes to understand the story. There is no foul language, some mild sexuality, and no violence in this series. The story is told from third person close of the two main characters. There Be Spoilers Ahead. 

From the back of the manga- An Odd-yssey for Two
Now that Kotaro and Asako have met each other's families, things should be smooth sailing from here on out- right? But there's still their first company trip as a couple, not to mention some unexpected... gains... of romantic bliss to navigate. With their inner weirdos rearing their freaky heads, can Kotaro and Asako keep their ship afloat?

Review- Another very sweet volume in a sweet series. Asako and Kotaro are getting very comfortable with living together and are coming up on their one year anniversary. They are now both thinking about the future that they both want, like marriage and children. There is some humor with their co-workers, as they tease Kotaro about being weird and making sure that Asako is okay. It is all playing for fun. This series continues to have some of the best communication I have read of any romance manga. I am looking forward to the next volume.

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.
