Okitegami Kyouko is a famous detective who solves cases in a single day. In fact, she has to, since her memories only last for one day before they 'reset.' However, for important things, she writes messages for herself down on her body with a special pen. One of her common clients is Kakushidate Yakusuke, a man who is often wrongly suspected of committing crimes. There is also a live-action drama adaptation of this story.

Ichie is the owner of a dressmaking shop. Her grandmother started the shop and now Ichie runs the business. Her clothes are made with an old sewing machine and are very popular. Following her grandmother’s will, Ichie only makes clothes for individuals and turns down offers to turn her clothing into a brand. This manga has been adapted to a movie of the same name, and the English title of "A Stitch of Life." [Asian Wiki]

=======================================================


My opinion:
Kyouka Ayakashi Hichou - If you're a fan of the supernatural, historical setting manga and mysterious abilities, then you should check this out.
Okitegami Kyouko no Bibouroku - Fans of NISHIO Ishin will make this manga a must read - plus seeing how the detective can solve a case so quickly should be interesting.
Tsukuroi Tatsu Hito - Another manga that has been turned into a drama, if you like dramas and slice of life manga or have seen the live action drama and liked that, then you should probably take a look at this manga.
