Hige Wo Soru Soshite Joshikousei Wo Hirou นิยาย & เรื่องราว

The main character in 'Hige wo Soru. Soshite Joshikousei wo Hirou' is Yoshida, a salaryman who ends up taking in a runaway high school girl named Sayu after a drunken night. Yoshida’s life takes a sharp turn when he finds Sayu sitting on the street, and despite his initial reluctance, he lets her stay at his place. What makes Yoshida so compelling is his moral struggle—he’s not a saint, but he’s trying to do the right thing in a messy situation. The story dives deep into his internal conflicts, his past relationships, and how he grapples with responsibility versus desire.

Sayu, the runaway girl, is just as central to the narrative, but Yoshida’s perspective drives the story. His interactions with her, his coworkers, and his ex-girlfriend paint a nuanced picture of adulthood and loneliness. The series does a fantastic job of balancing his flaws with his kindness, making him relatable without glorifying his decisions. It’s rare to see a male lead in this genre who feels so grounded, and that’s part of why the story resonates so much.

Man, 'Higehiro' really hit me in the feels! If you're looking for something with that same mix of emotional depth and unconventional relationships, you might dig 'Three Days of Happiness' by Sugaru Miaki. It's got that bittersweet vibe where loneliness and human connection crash together in beautiful ways. The protagonist's journey from despair to finding meaning through others reminded me so much of Yoshida's growth.

Another hidden gem is 'Welcome to the NHK'—it tackles social withdrawal and found family with dark humor and heart. The dynamic between Sato and Misaki has that same 'broken people helping each other heal' energy. For lighter but still meaningful takes, 'My Youth Romantic Comedy Is Wrong As I Expected' explores similar themes of social outsiders forming bonds, though with more comedy.

I totally get why you'd want to check out 'Hige wo Soru. Soshite Joshikousei wo Hirou' without breaking the bank! There are a few places where you might find it online for free, like certain manga aggregator sites or fan translation groups, but I’d really encourage supporting the official release if you can. The series tackles some heavy themes about homelessness and relationships, and the author’s work deserves recognition.

That said, I stumbled upon some chapters on a few sketchy sites last year, but the quality was hit or miss—some scans were blurry, and translations felt off. If you’re patient, libraries sometimes carry digital copies, or you could wait for a sale on platforms like BookWalker. Either way, it’s a story that sticks with you, so it’s worth experiencing properly.
