The year is 1920, the 9th year of the Taisho Period. Lifelong philomath Kiyo Fukasaku is ecstatic when he's admitted into the Imperial University, and can't wait to begin his new life in the nation's capital...that is, until he gets lost and already finds himself on hard times on his first day in the big city.

Jun 23, 2024Overall, The Yearning Fox Lies in Wait is a delightful release that manages to tell its story in just 5 chapters, leaving nothing unsaid and proving a satisfying work. It may not appeal to everyone due to the slow-burn nature of the plot, but certainly, it will find its audience.

Sep 05, 2024This story is a cute and tidy one-volume romance that seems a little slow to start and ends rather quickly, but nevertheless offers readers a little bit in a lot of areas. There is romance, historical fiction, a dash of food manga, and some mythology thrown in for good measure. The illustrations are pretty but nothing especially stand out. The bonus chapter has a little bit of spice, enough to satisfy some romance readers who might have thought this title was too chaste for them, but not too much to keep this from school library bookshelves.
