Hooray comment section is back! I have so so so many thoughts on this manga and all of them are good. This is wildly underrated and an instant classic imo. It has such a subdued, literary quality to it, and was honestly quite a sensitive work. It didn’t shy away from Gerard’s uglier behaviors while also showing like how kind he was—a really flawed character who I loved reading about. Jacques was a pleasure, too, but I really found myself most drawn to Gerard’s backstory. That was so well written and sad!
