Unusual pattern choice for this modern high end obi, inspired by the famous Zo to Kujira-zu byôbu (Elephant and Whale folding screens) painted by mid-Edo animal lover artist Ito Jakuchu.
Those folding screens were rediscovered in 2008. There is apparently no hidden allegory behind the whale/elephant pairing beside the fact that artist once saw an elephant and a whale and (rightly) went "well they're neat".
Those screens were ordered to be displayed during Gion matsuri, and whimsical patterns were often favored for this occasion.

If I had a nickel for every time I heard about a manga about a plus-sized woman who works in a lingerie store by a mangaka who previously drew a yuri series, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.
(The other series is Lingerie no Megami-sama by Yuni, currently it’s pretty new and little information is available about it in English but it looks good so far.)

Nazumi is looking for a new job for the first time since her job was closed. When a customer makes fun of her chubby figure at a lingerie store she started working at through a friend, she is taken out by Leo, a junior high school classmate and former delinquent whom she has been wanting to meet for a long time.
Saw this new manga recently and wanted to share the premise and a few art panels on here. It's by Kujira who also made Switch Me On! and even though I wasn't too interested in that one I liked the art and the way she told the story.
And yaay chubby lead who isn't there to be the joke for once🥳
