Yuki is a typical college student in all ways but one: She's hard of hearing. A chance encounter on a train leads to a serious crush...but will he give her a chance? A sweet and relatable manga romance from the creator of Shortcake Cake! Even with a hearing aid, the voices of others are an indistinct blur for Yuki. But she's never let that get in the way of a life arranged around her friends, social media, and cute fashion. She's browsing her phone on train when a tourist asks her for directions, and she's ready to panic...but the handsome Itsuomi steps in to help. It turns out her new crush is a friend of a friend, and Yuki's world starts to widen. But even though Itsuomi-kun can speak three languages, sign language isn't one of them. Can Yuki communicate her budding feelings? From the acclaimed author of Shortcake Cake, the hit shojo series with more than a million copies in print, this new work is sure to please fans of romantic stories like A Silent Voice, Kimi ni Todoke, and Love in Foc... One of the most prolific and successful shojo manga creators of the last decade, suu Morishita's English-language debut was Shortcake Cake, which has more than one million copies in print worldwide. Morishita's second series to be released in English is A Sign of Affection. Review: Uplifting, cute, romance, - This is my second romance manga, I've only just started to read manga, a change from watching anime. The first romance manga I read was "I want to eat your pancreas" a really amazing manga but with a sad side, I wanted a change, a more uplifting read, and this manga seems to be the one for me, I've finished the first part of like 3 parts? In this one manga, I've just ordered the 2nd volume, I highly recommend this if you like romance, apparently it's been a bit of a challenge for the publisher or writer to make this, especially trying to incorporate sign language into a manga, but I must say I'm very impressed and humbled by it, I struggle to read normal books, and so comics and manga are a new experience for me, and It seems to be easier and more enjoyable at the moment! I really am a fan of this manga, even though I struggle to read and become interested in books at all, this manga has captured my heart, 10/10 for being just beautiful and perfect!

Uplifting, cute, romance,
This is my second romance manga, I've only just started to read manga, a change from watching anime. The first romance manga I read was "I want to eat your pancreas" a really amazing manga but with a sad side, I wanted a change, a more uplifting read, and this manga seems to be the one for me, I've finished the first part of like 3 parts? In this one manga, I've just ordered the 2nd volume, I highly recommend this if you like romance, apparently it's been a bit of a challenge for the publisher or writer to make this, especially trying to incorporate sign language into a manga, but I must say I'm very impressed and humbled by it, I struggle to read normal books, and so comics and manga are a new experience for me, and It seems to be easier and more enjoyable at the moment! I really am a fan of this manga, even though I struggle to read and become interested in books at all, this manga has captured my heart, 10/10 for being just beautiful and perfect!

Great story
EDIT: canceled the return in the end as another friend was interested in it and didn't mind the issue, she seems super happy with it. I bought the manga since I thought it would be a cute gift, however had to return due to unfortunate print formatting. The quality and feel of the pages is great(i even appreciated the colored glossy image on the first pages), however for some reason the covers don't actually reach all the way to the edge of the actually pages(the cover is like 1mm shorter than them). This might not bother others and probably wouldnt affect most people's ability to enjoy reading it, but I am super specific about details such as this and so is the person who I intended this for. Thus why I'm returning it and finding something else(i looked up pictures of the volume online and this issue seems to be present on a lot of them, so its either intended to be that way or its a common problem). The reason I gave it 4 starts is because I didnt personally read it so i cant actually rate it and in my opinion if the covers being smaller by a millimeter on one side is not an issue for you, you should give it a try. I have heard good things about the story and the art does seem great, so it will probably be worth it checking out considering the high praises its getting. I had no other issues with the physical quality or delivery of the book

SO CUTE
Itsuomi and Yuki's story starts to develop, their lives so different but so alike. While she being deaf sees herself sometimes caged in this tiny little world, Itsumoi is a traveled person who goes out of the country to find out more about other cultures. Although it is like this, Itsuomi's sees Yuki's world as being a vast incredible one, and also can't help thinking she is cute. Yuki falls hard for him, they form a partnership that will probably face a lot of obstacles but with their understanding of each other and soft aura around them, I believe they will succeed. The art style is cute and wholesome, matching the vibe of the story perfectly. Hopefully, I can read the second volume fast! Also, the author took the time to give us some information about sign language in japan which I think it's informative and so important!

bellissimi disegni e storia
Ho scoperto questo manga grazie a tiktok, e sono felicissima di averlo acquistato. Era da un po' che non leggevo uno shojo perché, man mano, li ho trovati piuttosto ripetitivi e pieni di drammi inutili. Questa serie invece mi ha fatto innamorare di nuovo del genere: ho adorato i personaggi, i disegni sono spettacolari, e mi è piaciuto come la storia integri il linguaggio dei segni. Non vedo l'ora di leggere gli altri volumi!

Opens on the wrong (left) side but that's correct, not a defect.
I'm not sure how to rate this really, a teen granddaughter requested 1 & 2 in this series. I loved the story line. When the book came it was in pristine condition. But next I noticed it opened backwards. I was stunned. What on earth? Manufactured wrong? Defective? Send it back? I checked with my daughter and she confirmed these kinds of books open on the left not the right. Is this some aberrant New Age/Post Modern thing? Do Japanese read their books backwards? I am stunned but I gave it 5 stars because it is what my grand wanted and it's in perfect physical condition.

The art style is so beautiful
Kudos to the author for the art style of this manga. The panels are so beautiful and the characters are so well crafted and they each possess unique qualities. I also love the way the mangaka takes the time to illustrate the characters and their attempt of sign language. Great story. The only thing I hope will happen is for the MC to focus on herself and not chase Itsuomi all the time. While I understand that she’s drawn to him, I haven’t seen her once focus on herself. It’s like her whole world revolves around him.
