This is one of those manga in which each chapter is a situation and the stories don't usually go from one to the next (apart from the fact that the characters obviously change / mature and still think about these situations).

This was recommended to me tagged as a Josei - it is very much not that.

I think Alice-san Chi no Iroribata seems like a warm story, one that wants to tell a tale about reconnecting, patience and everyday life and the relationships we have in them through Alice and Harumi, moreso Harumi. Don't get it twisted, Harumi is the main character - not Alice. How we, as readers, see Alice is through Harumi's eyes.

Which I'd say is my biggest turn off of the manga. I was already confused why a supposed "Josei" and "story about Alice" was opening the first page with a direct ...
