Recently, I just received Look Back by Tatsuki Fujimoto via buying it from books-a-million as well as with a recommendation from my girlfriend. The single-volume story, written and illustrated by the same author as Chainsaw Man, revolves around two girls named Fujiro and Kyomoto, both talented manga artists since middle school, with the latter being introverted/an otaku. As the story progresses, it tells of their friendship/partnership over time from the beginning of middle school to the end of high school, with having artistic jealousy and the social development of Kyomoto.
I believe this story is short, but sweet as well as a great volume to read in but a day. It also speaks with coping with life and death, especially with their reoccurring short manga panels from middle school as a metaphor for their journey/life over time. It makes me wish that there was more, but at the same time the knowledge that the length is just right.
