My Category: Illustrator Working Slice of Life
Momoko, who dreams of becoming an illustrator, finds employment in an ultra fast-paced office that specializes in designing pachinko parlors!! With the office running a yazuka-like business and employing a designer, who has a habit of suddenly stripping in the middle of the night, Momoko believes that the company employees are a bit... no, definitely eccentric!! She continues pulling all-nighters, unable even to return home... And in the midst of cigarette-filled fumes, where women's authority takes a step back, she asks herself, "What am I doing here?"

My thoughts: Really liked it, a nice mix of realism and imagination from the author. A balanced focus on both work and romance, with very clean and well drawn art. A fairly light read, has a mixture of light-heartedness and serious scenes. People related to the design and illustration industry can relate, I think. I reread this a couple of times.
