true, very true, i also found it depressing, only because i feel like it was a "real" plot. there is no happy ending (i don't think there is), it felt like it could be very relate-able, the story wasn't "manga" like where bad situations usually/always turn out in the main character's favour.
but yea, it was good, and super depressing, left me feeling sad.
ah, just noticed the psychological and slice of life tags, sigh~ i should have read that before reading the manga xD
If you become too conceited without any actual talent, living on hope... give up.
Hmmm... if I could sum this up in a couple of words I'd go with, "Sweetly Pathetic." What I mean by this is, it was interesting in a depressing way.
