My husband found this for me and I really enjoyed it. The characters are loveable and I liked the art style. I don't think I've ever read a manga with disabilities rep, let alone one that takes on ableism. I look forward to more of this story.

- First off this isn’t a one shot kind of story, go into it expecting a fairly well fleshed out time line of events. There’s no NSFW, but for those looking for it, stay (and maybe cry!) for the angst and romance that Fumino creates. As someone who is hard of hearing, this story was endearing and really opened my eyes to why I shouldn’t apologize to take up space nor for embracing my disability without conforming to what’s normal. I Hear the Sunspot is an angsty, SFW, fluffy, disability diversity, and even better most of the characters are of age. Also there is more to this series, this is the first volume!
