If you want another woman manga author who’s just as obsessed with her characters as Ryoko Kui, but the focus is on human rights and disability/accessibility/accommodation, PLEASE read Witch Hat Atelier:
There's a diverse cast of characters!!
Queer representation with a storyline focused on how partners aren't counted as legal family (like in Japan)
Neurodivergent charaters who are outsiders but end up finding a way different than the norm to solve problems
The main atelier is like a found family with Qifrey and Olruggio leading all their students together
She also focuses on decorations and embellishments in the text, giving it a more fairy tale or mythological feel!
Modern day au's often show up on her social media as well, giving us little bonus glimpses into the character's lives
And she is a huge supporter of human rights irl as well -- the same themes in her work, she fights for personally.
Anyway, read Witch Hat Atelier <3
