What’s See You Tomorrow at the Food Court About?
See You Tomorrow at the Food Court is a comedy-drama, slice-of-life manga series written and illustrated by Shinichiro Nariie. It initially gained popularity as a webcomic on the author’s Twitter account in October 2019 before being serialized on Kadokawa Shoten’s Comic Newtype website starting March 2020. Yen Press has licensed the series for English publication.
The story revolves around two high school girls, Wada and Yamamoto, who appear to be polar opposites to their classmates. Wada is seen as a quiet, refined rich girl, while Yamamoto is perceived as an intimidating, rebellious fashionista. However, their classmates don’t know their secret selves. Wada is secretly addicted to mobile games, engaging in a love-hate relationship with a 2D character. Yamamoto, on the other hand, is fascinated by urban legends and is a devoted fan of a particular YouTuber.
Their biggest secret is that they meet every day after school at the food court. It’s here that they can truly be themselves, rant about their day, share their passions, and support each other. The series explores their unlikely friendship and the everyday moments that make their bond special.
