Throughout her young life, Komichi has always adored sailor attire-(being inspired by her idol Miki Fukumoto), even going so far as to have her mother Yuwa make a sailor-style school uniform for her when she enters middle school. When she gets accepted to her mother's old private school Roubai Girls' Academy, she is delighted that she'll get to wear her homemade uniform; once arriving at her new school, she is surprised to find out that Roubai's dress code no longer uses sailor uniforms and have been replaced with blazers instead. Despite the circumstances, the school's headmistress happily makes an exception and allows her to wear the traditional sailor uniform. As she goes through her years of early adolescence, even experiencing some struggles along the way, she meets and befriends many of her school peers and enjoys her school life.

Oh hey, this is the one that got an anime.

IIRC JNC has one Shueisha offering (Inferior Eyes, and that was done through an agent instead of talking to Shueisha directly) so it’s possible, but I’d also suggest asking YP and 7S too.

@Torka I’m aware about 7s survey, but dk how to take it ahead with yp.

Really late to the party to respond but JN would probably be the better fit for this series. Besides the obviously faster catchup to raws rate it would have. The series is pretty steeped in Japanese countryside culture and it doesn't really hide aspects of the mc life. As some series cherry pick what is shown. Though it is idealistic in various ways itself. So where JN has series like gushing among others the amount of basically indirect nudity that shows up as the mc just lives her life wouldn't be a issue.

The manga itself is a demonstration of joy and movement in still life. Plus being a real coming of age series as the mc is playing catch up with the other cast having been so isolated growing up.
