I understand short manga doesn't have much time to flesh out it's content, but you should at least put some thought into it. I don't mind simple works but this feels like the author just wrote a manga about their favorite daydreams without bothering to make the necessary changes. As it stands, Bokutachi no Tabi isn't terrible at its core, but the shell is impressively messy with a ton of plot devices and ridiculous conveniences. If the core was more impressive I could forgive its shortcomings but as it stands, it's just a couple bland characters running away from home for minor reasons and aftersome chance encounters realize they shouldn't give up on their dreams. In the end, it's hard to find any value in a mediocre story with poor execution. The fact that it lacks redeeming qualities outside of aspects that could've been worse solidifies it's place among manga I wouldn't recommend to anyone ever. It doesn't even fail in any interesting ways.
Kana loves drawing more than anything. Everyday she goes home to find her mother and brother arguing. Only with her precious art book, does she feel at peace. However, one day her mother throws the art book out. Enraged, Kana leaves home and wanders onto the streets... (Source: Divine Sanctuary)
Considering its length, you obviously can't expect much, not to mention it's also the author's debut manga. Despite that, it was good enough to kill 10 minutes of boredom and free time. It's my second time reading Sakai Mayu's work, and I really love her characters, even though they're your average shoujo tropes you can find in any other similar manga. I can't recommend it for the same reason as Nine Puzzle: the story is too niche, and I'm sure 95% of the manga community would find it boring. But for my fellow shoujo fanatics, it's enjoyable enough to be worth our time.
