Kimi No Sukina Onnanoko No Katachi (“Shape of Your Favorite Girl”) [English, 189 pictures], by Maruta
I’ve got a globally positive take on this newly released tankoubon.
The good sides: original enough story lines (that would have deserved more chapters to fully bloom, IMO), a shade of drama and mystery in the second half, and, most importantly, vivid, splendid, beautifully detailed drawings, with close to zero censorship, Maruta’s got major artistic skill, it’s massive pleasure for the eye
The bad sides: rant at me all you like, but I’m extremely uncomfortable with this manga because of the near-loli second half of the manga. It’s past that supposedly, but it’s almost there, and I felt it was a pity, a waste of opportunity to fully develop this second half’s potential for drama and poetry…
Kimi No Sukina Onnanoko No Katachi was commissioned by Job Truniht; the first half has been released by Flammz (proofreader), Job Truniht (proofreading), Kusojijii (translator), T.Starrk (proofreader) and Hurp Durp, from THMMY-Scans. The second half has been translated by N04h and edited by Herzer. Thank you very much, all of you

Recompressed version incoming!
As of usual when ☑ the archive is quite big for its number of pictures, ☑ it offers a significant gain, ☑ the images are not in damn too high resolution, and ☑ I have enough time to do it, if it may help, I’m offering you a smaller version, in which I recompressed the images.
There should be no loss of quality for the naked eye, only a loss in megabytes.
The zip shrunk to xx MB.

I honestly didn’t think you would share this book because of its second half, so color me positively surprised.
By the way, Oliver, you should do some sidebar link housekeeping. For example, Anime Nation is very much an ex-retailer these days.
As I wrote, that made me feel very uncomfortable, yeah. But once I made the effor to read it, and not just rely on a pair of untranslated pics, I saw I couldn’t go and accuse it of being loli, so be it, I can bear with not being at ease with stuff.
I should indeed, also, check those sidebar links, urgh. I don’t even dare check if I remembered to add 2d-market
While I’m at it, thanks for having supporting this project through all those years, Job, we owe you more than one
The first half was wonderful. I gave it a 4 b/c the second half just wasn’t that good. Like Groundhog Day, it was the same story over and over with minor variations.
