Insomniacs After School Manga, Volume 1

 


My Thoughts:

How lovely and very Asian to find a secret, unused hangout spot in school to have  a club house, or a place to hide and sleep in peace from all the pressures of school. This is about two insomniacs who are able to create almost a dorm and club house in an unused observatory. Need to keep others away? Just plant a ghost story about a suicide and everyone will steer clear. 

This is a hilarious manga about two teens who really found the ideal spot, at least until one faculty uncovers their secret lair. To stay now, will the two teens actually be a part of the new astronomy club? What other abandoned furniture will they find to make their secret spot a home away from home?

From the Publisher:

Two sleepless teenagers find kinship as they escape to their school’s astronomy observatory.

Unable to sleep at night, Ganta Nakami is cranky in class and unpopular with his classmates. He discovers that the school observatory, once used by the now-defunct astronomy club, may be the perfect place for a nap—but he’s not alone. Fellow insomniac Isaki Magari is willing to share the observatory with Nakami, and a friendship between the two begins as they bond over the most unlikely of things.

Dark rumors about what befell the members of the astronomy club keep people away from the school observatory, and that’s what makes it the perfect sanctuary for Nakami and Magari to get some much-needed rest. Unfortunately, the school faculty can’t allow its unsanctioned use. But if there were a 
new astronomy club, maybe these two insomniacs could have a place to call home!
