New Read - My Lovesick Life as a '90s Otaku, Volume 2

Okay, internet, I'm caught up!

I finally read Volume 2 of My Lovesick Life as a 90's Otaku and my goodness - the emotions. The feeling of being a nerd in the 90s and trying to be...normal around others. It's too real.

Volume 2 finally sees Meggers embrace her otaku-ness publicly, kind of, but also not. It advances the slow burn romantic tension between the class President and Megumi in such an adorable way. You see Masamune, his anime / manga obsessed Mom, and you see that he's basically solo parenting his siblings. It brings in some sad, but also sweet moments.

Also, Megumi makes an unexpected livelong friend this volume too by defending another girl who has a hard time making female friends. It's adorable and I love every second of it.

I am so glad I jumped into this series and looking forward to Volume 3.

Photograph of a white person's hand holding open Volume 2 of My Lovesick Life as a '90s Otaku. The black and white pages that are open show a dark haired girl smiling and blushing in various panels where she is relishing the fact that someone is reading her self-published manga. In the lower left-hand corner is a light-haired boy who is also blushing a lot while looking at the same girl. In the lower panels, the girl is saying, "This book. I drew it! It's mine!"
