Jarulf reviewed Galaxy Next Door 1 by Gido Amagakure
Good start to a cute romance with a twist
Another romance manga, this time with a hard-working and struggling mangaka taking care of his younger siblings. He is assigned a new assistant, a beautiful young woman who almost seems a perfect fit for him.
The basic premise here, with its own twist, is that of a young couple who will have to get married before they even know each other. This first volume moved things along a little quicker than I expected, the author seems to acknowledge that this might have been expected, with an almost fourth wall breaking little joke. The art and panel work is good, more than competent, and I think it shows they know what they are doing.
I liked it, even if I would have liked things to move a little more slowly. A few more scenes outside the house would have been nice too. It'll be fun to follow this and see how …

It'll be fun to follow this and see how Amagakure deals with the various tropes of the genre (not that I'm particularly knowledgeable) and where they are taking the story.
