Another special. This one is another special.

Both of these movies have fresh, funny and youthful writing and characters that give you a sneak peek into a very specific niche of nerd-dom. :) Both movies are quirky and fun but have positive, warm messages overall.

This is about Chihiro, a teenager who has only gone to an all-girls school and has no experience with boys whatsoever. One day, a boy that she sees at the train station every day asks her out and thus she begins her first relationship. This manga portrays the up and downs of first love with a good dose of humor.
