Incredibly charming manga about a woman running a restaurant-hotspirngs on a small planet. Each chapter is a sort of one-shot with different guests coming to the planet, sometimes with more connection to Motoka, but often times completely random and sharing their life stories. These stories are always interesting, impactful, and filled with emotion even though they are quite short. The sci-fi context of the story really enables a variety of interesting plots framed inside the vast reaches of space. You aren't sure what guests will come next as they can come from anywhere, and often that enables the author to play with interesting plots andbring in side characters that have a lot of charm. Fantastic read, manga doesn't try to be anything other than itself and doesn't overstay its welcome.
In an era of space travel, there is a small restaurant in Jupiter's orbit named after its owner, Motoka. People coming to or leaving the stars come through her small restaurant, and she always has something to serve that speaks to her customers' hearts and memories. Some may say that the universe itself conspires for the curious encounters to happen at the tiny asteroid, it being in the proverbial fringe between the pale blue dot and the space beyond for the travelers, who while visiting find answers that they may have not been looking for, but whose questions lingered in silent vigilance, ever present in the back of their minds.
