There’s something exciting about discovering a manga that explores one of your hobbies—particularly when said hobby is relatively niche.
Kimi wa Houkago Insomnia follows two high school insomniacs who inadvertently revive their school’s defunct astronomy club while using the observatory as a safe place to sleep. Required to perform actual club activities, Nakami quickly becomes interested in astrophotography, for what better hobby could an insomniac take up than chasing elusive clear night-time skies?
The manga chronicles his initial forays into the art and his budding but awkward relationship with Magari, stalked all the while by a sense of impending tragedy.
It’s unfortunate the astrophotography isn’t always on point.
