About Honey Lemon Soda
The Honey Lemon Soda anime is an adaptation of Mayu Murata’s manga series of the same name. The manga was first published in Shueisha’s RIBON in 2015 and currently has 25 main tankoubon volumes as of April 2024. In addition, a live-action film based on the series was released in 2021.
Yen Press summarizes the plot as:
Middle school left Uka Ishimori with nothing but scars—to the point where she’s forgotten how to laugh or cry or even say “hello.” But a chance reencounter with a boy with lemon-colored hair invigorates her, giving her hope that maybe, just maybe, life can be that much sweeter if she finally reaches out for help.
