Koe no Katachi

Portrayed with heavy characterization and a realistic life story, both 3-gatsu no Lion and Koe no Katachi can be a highly enjoyable read for any reader. Their story invests in human emotions as we see how much the main characters change. There is concrete relationship focus that brings out their personalities. And above all, they stick with their themes without going off track. While their premise aren't similar, the main protagonist experiences loneliness until they meet certain other characters. 3-gatsu no Lion has the additional game element of shogi while Koe no Katachi often explores the inner thoughts of the main characters.
Both are magnificent slice-of-life manga, that focus on strong character-driven drama, with believable and deep relationships and interactions between the cast.
They are realistic, portray vividly the emotions and thoughts of the characters (especially of the troubled protagonists). I treat both as my favourite slice-of-life works, with great character development and enough catharsis to characterise these manga as "faith in humanity restored".
