Every Star in the Sky
Insomniacs After School, volume 8
By Makoto Ojiro
Insomniacs After School, Volume 8 is the eighth tankōbon in Makoto Ojiro’s contemporary manga series. Serialized in Shogakukan’s seinen manga magazine Weekly Big Comic Spirits, Insomniacs After School has been ongoing since May 2019. The English translation of Volume 8 was released in 2024.
Grumpy insomniac Ganta Nakami and ebullient insomniac Isaki Magari bonded over their discovery that the only place either can sleep is their school’s observatory. Various consequences followed: to keep using the observatory, the pair had to restart the astronomy club. More significantly for Ganta and Isaki, they eventually realized that they were a couple.
Ganta cannot sleep because he fears what the next day will bring. It may be ominous that Volume 8 begins with a discussion of Isaki’s health.
