Tramps Like Us Vol. 1

♥ to those of you on my flist who recommended Tramps Like Us (nee Kimi wa Petto). I'm halfway through volume 1, and it's utterly charming and unlike anything else I'm reading. In some weird, backwards sort of way, it reminds me of Maison Ikkoku, which of course is my favorite manga of all time, so this is all kinds of good.

The premise could so easily go over the top into complete stupidity, but it hasn't yet. :D

Isn't it MARVELOUS? I love the art and the characters--Sumire and Momo and even the supporting characters are more complex than I thought they would be (Momo can be a right bastard sometimes, and Sumire I adore forever for being intelligent and confident and having BALLS). When I read it I feel like I'm reading shojo for grown-ups.

I pause for a moment of "Maison Ikkoku" love with you.
