Now live on Kickstarter, get an exclusive look at Isaki Uta: The Lost & Found Collection. Already backed, the box set features four acclaimed manga stories about life, love, and loneliness, including “Mine-kun is Asexual.”
“Isaki Uta’s works are gems in the world of Japanese LGBTQ＋ comics,” said Irodori Comics’ translator ITSUKI. “The relationships between characters aren’t cookie cutter and show the rawness and intensity of discovering one’s sexuality and gender identity. It makes queer individuals like myself feel seen and that these kinds of stories are worth telling.”
Of the four, check out a preview of Mine-kun is Asexual below!
In “Mine-kun is Asexual,” Mine doesn’t like sexual intimacy in a relationship. He can kiss a girl, but it’s not something he wants to do if he can help it. But Murai loves him so much that she’s willing to overlook the fact that she can’t hold his hand; that she can’t cuddle up next to him when they watch movies together; that she can’t fall in love with him the way that she hopes to be loved in return. In the eyes of those around them, is this even a relationship that’s meant to last, or is it a train wreck just waiting to happen?
