When I first saw this manga, I was pretty intrigued by the synopsis. It just seemed really weird to me that this girl would marry some guy even though he had fallen in love with her sister. I don't really know what I was expecting, but it was pretty cute.
{Spoilers, but it's only 6 chapters so}
So this manga revolves around a multi-generational all-female household. There's a grandmother, her two daughters, and one of the daughter's two daughters. So five women in total. And it's about their daily lives, obviously because it's slice of life.
I think something that makes this manga more intriguing than others is that it doesn't paint this perfect picture of how life will look like when you're 30. The two daughters are working women, 30, and seemingly not close to marriage. The two older women are trying to mend the past and their kind of falling out with one another. If you end up reading this, it's interesting to look at their family dynamic and the lives that each one individually leads. The mangaka was definitely very smart in how they chose to intersperse knowledge here and there to let the reader come to some of their own conclusions before revealing what was really going on. And all throughout there were super lovable characters like the rakugo guy and how he fell in love with one of the sisters. That was really wholesome. Or how the other sister had this guy who fell in love with her. He helped her realize that she really did want to work full-time and to not be scared of failure. And when they never confess their love it really gets me. I dunno why, but the whole thing of "I can't tell him/her about my feelings because it'll just get in the way of their dreams" is super sweet but also stupid noble. Really just gets me feeling some type of way aiya.
Overall, I'd say it was a wonderful 6 chapters. It was short, but there was a lot of feelings and stories to be shown all throughout and it was a great read-through.
