As the two women come to rely on each other, their relationship starts to grow into something complicated.<\/p>\n<strong>Get the Book:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/4ogcmns\" target=\"_blank\">Amazon<\/a>\r\n<hr \/><\/div>\t\t<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">\n\t\t\t{\n\t\t\t\t\"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\/\",\n\t\t\t\t\"@type\": \"Review\",\n\t\t\t\t\"datePublished\": \"2026-04-02T05:00:07+00:00\",\n\t\t\t\t\"description\": \"Days of Love at Seagull Villa Vol. 1\",\n\t\t\t\t\"publisher\": {\n\t\t\t\t\t\"@type\": \"Organization\",\n\t\t\t\t\t\"name\": \"Radical Dreamer\"\t\t\t\t},\n\t\t\t\t\"url\": \"https:\\\/\\\/pastelgoth.net\\\/blog\\\/manga-days-of-love-at-seagull-villa-vol-1\\\/\",\n\t\t\t\t\"itemReviewed\": {\n\t\t\t\t\t\"@type\": \"Book\",\n\t\t\t\t\t\"name\": \"Days of Love at Seagull Villa, Vol. 1\",\n\t\t\t\t\t\"author\": [\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t{\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\"@type\": \"Person\",\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\"name\": \"Naoko Kodama\",\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\"sameAs\": \"https:\\\/\\\/pastelgoth.net\\\/blog\\\/book-database\\\/author\\\/naoko-kodama\\\/\"\t\t\t\t\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t],\n\t\t\t\t\t\"isbn\": \"\",\n\t\t\t\t\t\"numberOfPages\": 167,\n\t\t\t\t\t\"publisher\": {\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\"@type\": \"Organization\",\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\"name\": \"Seven Seas\"\t\t\t\t\t},\n\t\t\t\t\t\"image\": \"https:\\\/\\\/i0.wp.com\\\/pastelgoth.net\\\/blog\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/manga_daysofloveatseagullvillavol1.png?fit=250%2C356&ssl=1\",\n\t\t\t\t\t\"datePublished\": \"2020-11-24T00:00:00+00:00\",\n\t\t\t\t\t\"sameAs\": \"https:\\\/\\\/www.goodreads.com\\\/book\\\/show\\\/53317364-days-of-love-at-seagull-villa-vol-1\",\n\t\t\t\t\t\"genre\": \"Slice of Life\"\t\t\t\t},\n\t\t\t\t\"author\": {\n\t\t\t\t\t\"@type\": \"Person\",\n\t\t\t\t\t\"name\": \"Jamie\",\n\t\t\t\t\t\"sameAs\": \"https:\\\/\\\/pastelgoth.net\\\/blog\\\/\"\t\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t, \"reviewRating\": {\n\t\t\t\t\t\"@type\": \"Rating\",\n\t\t\t\t\t\"ratingValue\": 3,\n\t\t\t\t\t\"bestRating\": 5\t\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t}\n\t\t<\/script>\n\t\t\n<h2>Review<\/h2>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pastelgoth.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/manga_daysofloveatseagullvillavol1-page.png?resize=300%2C426&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"426\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-30502\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pastelgoth.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/manga_daysofloveatseagullvillavol1-page.png?w=300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pastelgoth.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/manga_daysofloveatseagullvillavol1-page.png?resize=211%2C300&amp;ssl=1 211w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><strong>Days of Love at Seagull Villa<\/strong> is a yuri manga about a city girl starting over and finding love in the countryside. Mayumi is a late 20&#8217;s woman that flees to city after a dramatic breakup with her fianc\u00e9. She starts over in a rural town and moves in with her new landlord Rin, an outgoing tomboy raising a child on her own.<\/p>\n<p>The first few pages of this manga are simply gorgeous. Kodama&#8217;s art style is very cute and the colored pages are wonderful. There is a lot of fan service which wasn&#8217;t personally for me but I could ignore it. I liked the three main characters well enough and am interested in seeing how their relationship grows.<\/p>\n<p>Plot wise, this manga moves pretty fast and I think some of the interactions between Mayumi, Rin, and little Hinata are a bit excessive. In addition to the main romance, there is a secondary story developing in the background between two middle school students. They add a little drama to the story, but it&#8217;s weirdly incestuous and it really spoils the whole vibe of the story. Despite my hang-ups, I am invested enough to continue the series. <\/p>\n<h2>Quote<\/h2>\n<p><center><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cAround here there are only younger girls, so I think she&#8217;s really <em>happy<\/em> that another girl around her age moved here.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><\/center><\/p>\n<h2>Content Warnings<\/h2>\n<span class=\"ubb-spoiler\"><a class=\"ubb-view-spoil\">View Spoiler &raquo;<\/a><span style=\"display: none;\" class=\"ubb-thespoil\">Bullying, Dead Family, Incest, Infidelity, Nudity, Sexual Assault <a class=\"ubb-hide-spoil\" style=\"cursor: hand; cursor: pointer;\">&laquo; Hide Spoiler<\/a><\/span><\/span>\n<h2>About the Author<\/h2>\n<div class=\"ubb-about-author\">\n<h3>About Naoko Kodama<\/h3>\n<p>Kodama Naoko is a Japanese manga artist.
