Senryu Girl

川柳少女

Nanako Yukishiro is a cheerful high schooler who never speaks aloud — she answers everything by writing senryū, short seventeen-syllable poems, on strips of tanzaku paper. Her classmate Eiji Busujima, a former delinquent now in the Literature Club, falls for her and starts composing his own clumsy senryū to reach her. Most chapters run as four-panel strips that string together the pair's quiet exchanges over everyday school moments.
