Description

In the vein of A Silent Voice and Perfect World, Plus-Sized Misadventures in Love is poised to be a breakout manga series! Meet Yumeko, an introverted young woman who suffers amnesia after a car accident and suddenly becomes a new person—outgoing, self-confident, and ready to take on the world.

Yumeko has never been happy—with herself, her job, her looks, her life. But after surviving a serious accident, she wakes from a coma with a completely different outlook. Where she was once withdrawn and self-conscious, she has suddenly become outgoing and absolutely in love with herself and everything around her.

Those who know her are shocked by Yumeko’s personality shift, but quickly find themselves drawn to her positive energy and joy.

Everything seems to be going right for Yumeko. That is, until she learns the accident that transformed her might have been an attempt on her life. Will Yumeko be able to keep living her best life, or will the mystery of what truly happened cause her to slip back into her old self?
