Personal Opinion
The anime is often recommended for listening practice because the vocab is common and the sentences are relatively simple. It made me think that the manga might be suitable for this reading club. The anime is also very funny (and cute), so I think it should be an entertaining read.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Slice of life, so easy in the vocab department
- No wall of kana, plus the kanji have furigana
- Low text density, so can be read in 9 weeks (15 pages per week).
- There is an anime on Netflix
Cons
- Might be a little too cute for some?
