Introduction

“I like my boss…”

She was the ace of the track club but stopped running after an incident: Akira Tachibana. She can’t express her feelings too well and is always misunderstood as being ‘cool’ by other people. She works part-time at a restaurant called ‘Garden’, where Masami Kondo has been store manager for many years. Kondo is overwhelmed by the attention he gets from Akira, who overflows with feelings for him.

Many will fondly remember this story after experiencing it, for it shows the many different ways rain can fall softly in a love story.

Adaptation

The manga was serialized from August 2014 to January 2016 in Shogakukan’s Monthly Big Comic Spirits and then biweekly in Big Comic Spirits from Vol. 8.

Koi wa Ameagari no You ni gained readers interest as ’pure and orthodox love story’ and won the ‘Manga Grand Prize 2016’, ‘This manga is awesome! 2016’ and is the highest-ranked featured work in the men’s category. The number of sold copies exceeds 1.75 million and is finally being adapted into a TV Anime which will be broadcast on Fuji TV’s Noitamina block.
