Synopsis
Fashionable and upbeat high schooler Aya falls head over heels for an employee at a local CD shop. He's got an air of mystery about him, great style, and an impeccable music taste. Little does she know—this supposedly male employee is actually her female classmate Mitsuki! Mitsuki generally keeps to herself, but since her seat is right next to Aya's, she can't help but be extremely aware of the other's crush. Revealing the truth is out of the question for Mitsuki—but perhaps getting closer to Aya wouldn't be so bad...Edit

Well, I am a sucker both for music AND lesbians, so this is a perfect pick for anyone with similar tastes!
Let me start by saying I love, love, LOVE THE ARTSTYLE!!! I'm a huge fan of mangakas using one leading colour (like in Nagata Kabi's memoirs), it really captures your attention from the get-go. Character designs are also top-notch, I'm very pleased that I never encountered the oh-so-known problem of not being able to recognize even the main cast when presented with some new characters. All in all, I think it's one of the best looking GL's on the market to date, right next to ...

Preliminary (87/? eps)
A Yuri manga that SERIOUSLY needs an anime adaptation, as well as a whole lot more of recognition. I hope more people read it and aren't put off by the shorter chapters. It's such a lovely slow burn romance between a loner who loved western rock and a preppy girl who also happens to love the same genre of music - and a slight missunderstanding.
The story focuses on two things: music, and their slowly developping relationship. And in a way, it reminds a lot of the themes we see in Bocchi the Rock. Loner and anxious girl is slowly coming out of her shell by ...

Every now and again you come across a manga that really feels like it breaks the mold, either in the art style that it uses, or the kind of story it wants to tell, or the way it wants to tell it. Kininatteru Hito ga Otoko ja Nakatta seems intent on doing all three.
The art style is extremely distinctive - possibly even off-putting if the front cover is all you've got to go on - but it's really worth bearing with because it's actually beautifully drawn and suits the story perfectly. Characters are expressive and fluid, backgrounds are nicely detailed, the use of lime green ...
