乙嫁語り chapter 17 + atogaki, which finishes volume 3! This was another sombre volume end. The atogaki portion took me a really long time to read since it was so dense, and also I got distracted a lot googling and reading more about the little tidbits. It happened with the last volume in this series too!
I found the Kansai-ben really intense in that series when I first started reading it, but reading along with the BBC (link) was really helpful! I think if you have questions while reading and post in those threads even now, people might answer them. Other than the Kansai-ben, I don’t personally find the series too difficult of a read (so far; I’m only on volume 2). I think you could consider trying it if you’re comfortable reading other slice-of-life manga?
As for resources, I find this chart helpful for referencing the standard dialect equivalents of some Kansai-ben expressions. The rest of the website seems pretty good too, although I haven’t explored it that much. It’s not comprehensive though (that would be really difficult), so I often google “phrase + 関西弁” when I can’t find something there or in my dictionary, to see what comes up.
