The Secret of Friendship
Also known as: Tomodachi no Hanashi, 友だちの話, Das Geheimnis der Freundschaft, Przyjaciółki, Le Secret de l'Amitié, Il Segreto dell’Amicizia
by Kazune Kawahara, Aiji Yamakawa
Eiko and her best friend Moe couldn't be more different: Eiko is a shy, average-looking girl while Moe is beautiful and envied by everyone at their high school. Though their personalities are total opposites, the bond between them is incredibly strong. Moe might have an endless supply of suitors, but when it comes to actually dating them, she has a condition: her boyfriend must value Eiko more than he does Moe. No one has yet been able to meet her condition—not until a boy named Tsuchida appears, at least. What will Eiko do when her relationship with her best friend begins to change?

Read the full take
Eiko and her best friend Moe couldn't be more different. Eiko is shy and average-looking, while Moe is beautiful and envied by everyone at their high school. The premise is a short comedy-romance about two girls whose friendship is tested by how the world sees them.The strength is the sincerity. The story captures the small jealousies and loyalties of teenage friendship, and Eiko's self-doubt feels real. The art is clean and warm, and the pacing suits the short format.The weaknesses come from its brevity. With only four volumes, the story has little room to explore its side characters, and some scenes feel slight. Readers wanting a longer arc may find it too brief.Recommended for readers who enjoy compact, heartfelt stories about friendship. Expect a sweet, reflective read that is over before you expect.
