''Manga no Tsukurikata'' (''How to Make a Manga'') is a {{manga}} [[MostWritersAreWriters about]] {{mangaka}}s [[MostWritersAreWriters by Auri Hirao]], which ran in ''Comic Ryu'' from 2008 to 2014. It is also about GirlsLove, although it's mostly hidden in {{subtext}}: Kawaguchi and Morishita don't kiss or openly announce their relationship, and the former is still reluctant to acknowledge her feelings, but she doesn't deny it either, and there's a plenty of hugging and tender touches. The drawing style is rough (maybe, deliberately so) but slightly more realistic than the usual {{Moe}} style, probably to emphasize the {{realism}} of the story. If you are searching for FanService and comedy, you may [[MoveAlongNothingToSeeHere move along]] now, but in case you look for an evenly paced, laid-back yuri romance, ''Manga no Tsukurikata'' is the right choice. Also, take a look if you are a fan of Hiyori from ''Manga/LuckyStar''.

* GirlsLove: It is a meta-GL manga: it's about female mangaka, at least one of whom wants to write yuri manga and the other is in love with her.

Two TRS efforts in one.


Asuka Kawaguchi published her first manga at the age of 13 but for the six years since then, she couldn't produce anything new despite desperately trying to. Her problem is the lack of topics she is interested in enough to write about. Noticing that BoysLoveGenre and YuriGenre works are selling well, she decides to take a shot at the genre, but first, she needs to "gather experience" and starts dating her [[SenpaiKohai kohai]] Morishita, who has previously professed her love for her. Very soon, she discovers that Morishita is actually "Sachi", her favorite manga artist writing under a pen name. As the story progresses, the two experience [[SliceOfLife highs and lows in life]] but by supporting each other, they make it through anything and the [[PseudoRomanticFriendship bond between them]] grows ever stronger.

* SenpaiKohai: Kawaguchi is Morishita's sempai.



* WillTheyOrWontThey: Kawaguchi maintains an ambivalent attitude toward her relationship with Morishita, even though she admits they are dating for real. So far it looks like [[spoiler:they haven't even kissed yet]].
** Actually, one topic of debate seems to be in Chapter 32 [[spoiler:whether or not Kawaguchi and Morishita did anything in bed. Kawaguchi gets on top of Morishita after they both confess to being lonely without each other. And then the chapter ends.]]

* PseudoRomanticFriendship: At one point, Morishita thinks that Kawaguchi will abandon her when "she grows up" and marries. Kawaguchi assures her that since she is already an adult, it won't happen any time soon.

* {{Filler}}: Chapter 38 is a non-canon story about the cast gathering for Kawaguchi's birthday. Someone even points out the obvious PlotHole of Morishita being present for the party despite her having moved to Tokyo by that point, and she just laughs it off by breaking the fourth wall and saying it doesn't matter since this chapter isn't related to the overall story anyway.

* ReplacementGoldfish: When it becomes clear that Yoshinaga is not going to give up on Morishita, Kawaguchi tries to trick her into falling for Nomura, who greatly resembles Morishita.

Zero Context Example. Tall Dark And Bishoujo has been renamed to Aloof Dark Haired Girl which is an aloof or composed female character with dark hair. If you\'re character does fit that trope than add Aloof Dark Haired Girl with context explaining why the character fits the trope.


* TallDarkAndBishoujo: Subverted or even deconstructed with Kawaguchi, who meets all appearance requirements (including a blond kohai girlfriend) but utterly misses the personality archetype, being a disgruntled, unmotivated slacker.
