Motoka no★Shokudou

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.
