Akira Tachibana is a 17-year-old high-school student and former track star who ruptured a tendon and has been using her free time to waitress at a casual family restaurant, a job which would be utterly boring if not for the staff's manager, Masami Kondo, a 45-year-old divorcee whom Akira has completely fallen for.The story follows Akira's attempts to confront Kondo with her feelings and the way their relationship develops after he realizes she looks at him as more than a co-worker.It also explores the main duo's relationships with several side characters, such as Haruka Kiyan, a member of the school's track team who feels hurt by Akira's cold, avoidant behavior; and Chihiro Kujou, Kondo's old college buddy and writing partner who has become a successful author in the years since they grew apart.After the Rain (恋は雨上がりのように, Koi wa Ameagari no You ni, "Love is Like After the Rain") is a seinen romance manga by Jun Mayuzuki. It began in 2014 and ended in 2018 at a total of ten volumes. Kodansha released the series in English as a five volume omnibus set.A twelve episode anime aired during the Winter 2018 season. Production was handled by Studio Wit.

The Stoic: Akira’s Longing Look towards Kongo isn’t any different from her usual unemotional expression. The viewer can tell what she’s feeling based on her actions, but she doesn’t emote otherwise.

World-Weary Waitress: Kubo is a diminutive waitress with huge lips and a penchant for snarking at their manager, Kondo, such as pointing out on one occasion when he forgot to zip his fly, or lambasting him for always apologizing to customers.

Bittersweet Ending: The manga ends with Kondo finally rejecting Akira outright when she visits his apartment on New Year's day, after which Akira stops working at Garden. Both have obviously grown stronger from the experience, with Akira entering rehabilitation and Kondo working on a new novel, but they never meet again.

She actually cuts the hair of the newest member of the kitchen staff, a high school boy whom she develops a crush on. (It's also reciprocated).

Body Motifs: Being a track runner, Akira's feet and toes are used symbolically through the series to convey her feelings. She has an ankle injury with its consequent physical and spiritual scar, dances barefoot in the opening while proclaiming innocently her love, later gets a pink pedicure and high-heeled sandals when trying to look pretty to Kondo, and also does a little happy dance in flip-flops to celebrate summer break.
