None of y'all understand how badly I NEED a 70s shojo manga adaptation of Wuthering Heights. Preferably one that gets really weird about Nelly and Catherine Earnshaw's relationship and also heavily romanticizes Heathcliff. And makes Linton a bishonen. Are you seeing the vision

Jojo no Uta (ジョジョの詩) bu Kurata Emi. This volume contains the first 5 instalments of her Jojo to Khaki-hime (ジョジョとカーキー姫) series, published in Bessatsu Shoujo Comic between 1975/10-1976-12, a one shot, and two shorter and funnier one shots.
Although the cover says this is volume 1, from what I could tell, the series just got another volume-original story for another edition, and was never resumed. Although the adventures of the tomboyish princess Khaki-hime (also laugh at me: I thought her name was "car key" at first because, katakana...) and her kind of bohème magic painter fiancé Jojo start off with lighthearted shoujo vibes with lots of wackiness, fantasy elements and happy stories, the mood shifts to a more serious tone when Jojo recalls a near-death experience he had and encountered the soul of a man who committed suicide in Aki no Irihi (秋の入り日), and when we follow a 28-year-old teacher contemplating his life choices (marrying young, no longer being himself and but "dad", feeling like his life is over although he's still in his 20s...) in Khaki-hime no Gogo (カーキー姫の午後). I liked the more slice-of-life-ish turn it took, but well, I guess they didn't hire Kurata for drawing stories that feel too close to real life.
