Manga Review: Happy Marriage, Vol. 2 Paperback



I've finished " Happy Marriage Vol. 2" by Maki Enjoji.

A working-girl romance

In order to help her father, Chiwa Takanashi agrees to an arranged marriage with the company president, Hokuto Mamiya — a man she doesn’t know — at the request of Hokuto’s grandfather. Chiwa believes the arrangement isn’t binding, but her new partner seems to think otherwise. Can two strangers living together find their way to a happy marriage?!

Chiwa Takanashi has married a total stranger — company president Hokuto Mamiya — to get her father out of debt. Hokuto has pledged fidelity to her, but then the tabloids break the news of him dating a famous actress. Though Hokuto has denied having an affair, Chiwa starts confiding her worries to Yu Yagami, a handsome new company recruit. Is the contract they signed the only thing holding their marriage together?

Reads R to L (Japanese Style) for mature audiences.

My Review:

This manga is for the older crowd because it deals with mature matters regarding two strangers who are dealing with marriage.

Chiwa is a normal girl who likes simple things but has doubts about her husband Hokuto motives.  She isn't even sure he likes her, doesn't really make sense of the game he plays at work.

To further complicate the situation Hokuto is photographed with another woman and denies he is having an affair, a new employee is hired who Chiwa has taken under her wings and a former flame wants to hire her.

4/5

Thanks Simon and Schuster Canada for sending me this manga to review, greatly appreciated!
