Kyoto bans tourists from parts of geisha district amid reports of bad behaviour Gion residents asked city council to crack down after rise in tourist numbers leads to increased harassment of traditional entertainers

It actually makes me feel so sad when in the manga they go outside or just open their curtains, and the streets are full of people, tourists presumably, immediately surrounding them and taking pictures of them :confused:

Hah, that was exactly my thought. I mean, there’s something of a “oh, Sumire is working herself to death again” theme that occasionally pops up, and every now and then there’ll be chapters that directly follow on from each other, but I can’t said I’ve noticed much by way of arcs, exactly.

[image] Cathm2: It has arcs? I have read all the volumes released so far - yes it does :slight_smile:
