A graphic novel review website. Whispered Words, vol. 1. Ushio Kazama is girl-crazy and everybody knows it.
She has a different crush every week, and they all have three things in common: they are feminine, demure, and cute. In other words, they are the complete opposite of her best friend Sumika Murasame, who is athletic, serious, and taller than everyone in her grade.

The manga follows a typical slice-of-life formula that revolves around Sumika’s attempts to remain friends with Ushio while agonizing over her unrequited feelings. Classical Comics. Eek!
