In this raunchy, wry, and witty teen sex dramedy, everyone thinks Chiyomi has disappeared, and suspicion naturally falls on her boyfriend, Minami. Buy Chiyomi's merely shrunk to six inches tall- and moved in with him! This miniature life may have an upside: The couple is growing up (if not growing taller) by learning how to navigate logistics, jealousy, and the cat. Written and drawn by cult celebrity/performer/acclaimed author Shungiku Uchida, Minami's Lover originally appeared in the countercultural manga magazine Garo in the 1980s. It's been adapted for Japanese television several times, proving that Uchida's exploration of gender dynamics and intimacy- the form of a fairy tale about a couple literally learning how to take care of one another- is an enduring one.
