For the very selfish reason that I am in love with this manga, and I would love to see it translated into English......

https://comic.pixiv.net/works/7856 (you can read the last episode here)Title: Yuki to Sumi (Japanese) / Snow and Ink (direct English translation)
Author: Marita (https://twitter.com/kara4ma4)
Medium: Manga
Publisher: Kadokawa
Volumes: 3 (third and final volume coming out 2022.07.27)It's... it's... so good!!! It's a sci-fi, time travel, reincarnation love story. It ripped my heart out and then put it gently back in my chest.
Description from Baka-Updates (which doesn't do the story justice; https://www.mangaupdates.com/series/un44zv3/yuki-to-sumi-marita):
"Company employee Tokiwa lives with his cousin Asagi. The two of them were living their normal, comfortable lives until one day, intoxicated with liquor on the night of Tokiwa's birthday, they began to reveal their deepest secrets...
'The truth is, I remember my past lives.'
'The truth is, I'm a time traveler.'"Oh, please! The time traveler is looking for the person he loves! And the reincarnator doesn't even know he's looking for the person he loves!!
The story is beautiful, classy, and a sophisticated take on the usual SF/fantasy elements. The art is beautiful. (Sorry, I can't figure out how to post images...) The last episode just got released yesterday.
