Koikimo Mangaka Announces New Manga About Two Cohabiting High Schoolers

You hate it or you love it, there is no in-between when it comes to Mogusu’s romance stories. Although that has been the pattern, her new manga Let’s Stay Together might be the romance story that breaks that chain.

The story is about a high school girl who starts living with a male classmate for some reason. Although the guy is an anti-social loner, his new living situation might change everything.

The official Twitter for pixie Comic’s web manga platform comic POOL has announced the serialization of Mogusu’s new manga Koisuru Hotaru to Kurashiteru (English Title: Let’s Stay Together) from September 3, 2021.

Besides the basic summary of the story and a visual that features the main characters, we do not have anything else about the series at the moment.

Like Mogusu’s previous work, this too seems to have the potential to be polarizing. Her previous series Koikimo or It’s too Disgusting To Call This Love centers around the romance between a high school girl and a grown adult. It even got an anime earlier this year.

As you can guess, there are plenty of ways it can be received negatively. Even though quite a lot of people loved the series, there were many who could not get over the age gap thing. An interesting thing to note is that the story is based on her marriage.

Two high schoolers living under the same roof can give you the same kind of creeps, but knowing Mogusu, there might be some ways around that. There is only one way to really find that out.

About Koikimo

Koikimo, short for Koi to Yobu ni wa Kimochi Warui (“It’s Disgusting to Call This Love”), is a Japanese romantic comedy illustration collections by Mogusu. It was first uploaded on Pixiv until it got an online manga serialization on Ichijinsha‘s Comic POOL digital manga magazine in January 2015.

Ryou Amakusa, a 27-year-old playboy nearly falls off the stairs one rainy morning, a girl named Ichika Arima saves him. As if by fate, Ryou encounters Ichika again later that night; she happens to be the best friend of his little sister, Rio. Wanting to “thank” her, Ryou attempts to woo Ichika by employing his usual flirtatious tactics only to be immediately shot down, his target creeped out by his behavior. Will this impossible romance ever blossom?
