A dramatic, funny, and painful romance manga between two women about how, sometimes, you need to run away in order to find where you truly belong. Perfect for fans of coming-out yuri like How Do We Relationship? and masters of adult drama like Akiko Higashimura (Princess Jellyfish) and Takako Shimura (Even Though We're Adults).You know that one person you just can’t forget? Not the one that got away, but the one you had, until suddenly you didn’t?Maki’s first love was her high school classmate, a girl named Midori. But Midori broke up with Maki at graduation, saying they were now "too old to be fooling around dating girls." Ten years later, Maki still can’t get Midori off her mind, and when the two women reconnect after a chance encounter, Maki realizes that, while her feelings haven’t changed, Midori has long moved on—in fact, she's engaged. Yet the more Maki hears Midori talk about her soon-to-be-husband, the more red flags she notices. And Midori has another secret, one she hasn’t yet shared with Maki. Will it be the last blow to Maki’s hopes that their romance might be rekindled? Or will it be the push that sets them on a new path—one they’ll travel together?

I have diminished expectations towards yuri manga recently because they've been kinda bland. [b:The Summer You Were There Vol. 1|60258259|The Summer You Were There Vol. 1|Yuama|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1662443672l/60258259._SX50_.jpg|95013999] felt too melodramatic without rational payoff. I say yuri manga have been bland, but it's actually not true. [b:Whisper Me a Love Song, Vol. 1|52163972|Whisper Me a Love Song, Vol. 1 (Whisper Me a Love Song, #1)|Eku Takeshima|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1599883108l/52163972._SX50_.jpg|71677707] is fantastic and [b:Akuma no Riddle, Volume 1|21945476|Akuma no Riddle, Volume 1|Yun Kouga|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1397774286l/21945476._SX50_.jpg|41249750] fails no one. What I enjoyed with <i>Run Away</i> is the more adult relationship, loneliness and its repercussions, and what a little love can do. And yeah, there's a bit of that amusement towards the Japanese proclivity that most manga and anime show. That one can only love another deeply if they are from their past somehow. With Midori and Maki acting as mirrors to each other to show how one can live for oneself versus letting the loneliness be a problem that leads to wrong (or at least, false) answers, it makes for an interesting narrative. Maki's character may seem lacking given the interiority of her concerns. I'm here to say that sure, her hesitation does not make for riveting plot and story, but it's important as a foil to how Midori acts seemingly without care.
