How Do We Relationship?, Vol. 2 by Tamifull
4.0
Because these two have a contrived beginning to their relationship, they take nothing for granted, which I really liked. They have frank discussions about their relationship--and particularly about sex. I'm used to yuri manga that has a lot of blushing and hand-holding and meaningful glances. This is one of the few that I've read that has sex scenes, and they don't feel like fan service or the male gaze to me. Whether it's in sex or conversations, I appreciated that they're often realistically awkward. This is not a romanticized relationship: they are both complex, flawed people, but they are trying to improve.
This isn't flawless: volume 2 contains a possibly transmisogynistic joke, unless I'm misinterpreting it--though it also might have a trans character. There is a side character who gets a subplot who discussed not wanting to be in a relationship because they would "have to be a woman." I look forward to seeing how that arc continues in volume 3. Saeko can also be pushy with Miwa--and she definitely needs to stop groping her in public.
