comment
Sakurako Kawawa is a high school first-year and has just moved into the boarding house attached to her school. The boarding house pairs students with roommates, so it's not long after starting to unpack that Sakurako meets her new roommate, the absolutely gorgeous Kasumi Yamabuki. While Sakurako is smitten with the beautiful girl at first sight, Kasumi quickly reveals herself to be something of an absent-minded layabout who not only didn't pack many belongings but didn't even bring a bed. Kasumi's personality awakened Sakurako's big sister instinct, and it wasn't long before she began caring for Kasumi's every need.A Room for Two, also known as Futaribeya (��り�や) in Japanese, is a Slice of Life manga by Yukiko that ended after 10 volumes. It is set up in the Yonkoma style and began serialization on July 30, 2014 in Comic Birz Magazine. It is licensed in English by Tokyopop.

Formal Characters Use Keigo: Seri, the Ojou of the cast, says that she speaks formally with everyone except her pet, and it takes considerable effort for her to address her best friend Shouko by her first name without honorifics.

Annoying Younger Sibling: Hinako often gets on Sakurako's nerves by insisting on spending time with her, or demanding that Sakurako help her study, to say nothing of her closeness with Kasumi.

Strange Minds Think Alike: Sakurako decides that if she ever has a daughter, she'll name the girl Kako, with the first syllable of Kasumi and the last of Sakurako. She's shocked when her older sister actually names her own daughter that, albeit for different reasons- all the females of the Kawawa family have names ending in "ko.:

"Freaky Friday" Flip: One "Deleted Scene" has Sakurako and Kasumi switch bodies. Kasumi is nonchalant about the whole thing, but Sakurako desperately wants to switch back, partly because she doesn't like being hungry all the time and partly because she can only see Kasumi's face when she looks in the mirror.

Say It with Hearts: When Kasumi asks Sakurako why she's the only one Sakurako uses "-chan" on, Sakurako says that she feels like a "Kasumi-chan" to her, adding a heart after Kasumi's name. Kasumi then wonders why.

Inconsistent Dub: The first few volumes of the localized manga forgo honorifics entirely, but they're included in later ones. For example, Sakurako and Kasumi call Natsuki "Natsuki-san" on some occasions, "Miss Natsuki" on others, and just "Natsuki" on still other times.

Lost in Translation: The main plot of Chapter 27 involves Shouko trying to get Seri not to use "-san" on her, as well as references to Sakurako and Shouko's own use of honorifics. Since the localization doesn't use honorifics, it's changed to saying that Seri speaks to Shouko formally, when her speech isn't noticeably more formal than anyone else's.

Chastity Couple: Sakurako and Kasumi. Neither seems particularly interested in taking their relationship in a sexual direction. The most they have done is the occasional kiss here and there, but even that is rare. It's not until the two are adults, living and working together, that the thought of even defining their relationship comes up.

Ambiguously Gay: While Sakurako's feelings for Kasumi are pretty explicit, it's hard to judge how Kasumi feels. While she certainly doesn't mind Sakurako's affection and will even show some in return, it's usually more shown as indifference, making her seem more asexual than anything else.

No Ending: The final chapter has Kasumi and Sakurako stop by their high school's boarding house for old times' sake, then have some Chicago-style pizza with Yukari, Moka and Ruriko, after which time Sakurako and Kasumi go home together. A late-series special chapter provides some closure to their relationship by having Kasumi ask if they can stay the way they are forever and Sakurako saying yes.
