My Brother's Husband, Volume 1 (Otouto no Otto, #1)
by
I was talking with a fellow anime-manga fan friend about the unlikely if eye-able way female manga artists portray gay guys for their primarily female audience, and wondered if actual gay guys would draw it differently; this was recced as a good basic example of the art-style differences, the story-line also dubbed "Gay 101 for straight folks", which turned out to be a fair evaluation. A Japanese man gets a visit from the Canadian widower of his late twin brother. Much learning follows on both sides. A gentle slice-of-life story, complete in two volumes.
