Modern Issues: Tatsefully Dicussed

LOUHEE September 15, 2020 8:51 pm

I'd like to read something that talks about modern day issues that is executed *well* and not half-baked and barely researched. Like mental illnesses, e.g. schizophrenia, dissociative personality disorder, paranoia etc...

I know they're out there! I just am having trouble finding them unfortunately.

Stuff like, Shimanami Tasogare: http://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/shimanami_tasogare/

Or Blue Period: http://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/blue_period/ but maybe more in depth than this one?

    Um, this isn’t really about mental disorders but it’s realistic if that’s what you’d like: http://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/ani_no_hanashi/

    It’s a bit exaggerated (as most stories are) but it hits the mark pretty closely for homophobia, racism, etc

    Sounds pretty legit, I read the description and it seems OK, I'm iffy with yaoi when it comes to modern issues since the mature scenes either enhance the emotional experience or diminishes it - hopefully it'll be a good read! Thanks for your recc again (〜 ̄△ ̄)〜

    It’s a Bl and the character has like anxiety and trauma because of the past. Idk if it’s what you’re looking for but it is pretty good and sad at the same time

    Yoohoo! I will tell you what I think if I finish all of it - but so far I'm 7 chapters in and here's how I'm feeling: the art is really good - the artist is good a visually representing the MC's feelings of anxiety through the drawings.

    The sudden bursts of colours at sexual scenes are quite smart, like it represents the anxiety sort of being forgetten for a minute but... the sex scenes itself? Just sort of exists. I feel like the author is just throwing in sexual content to keep readers which kind of ruins the solid storyline. Like I don't mind them being in the story, but I feel like they could've been done far more tastefully and be better timed,

    So, so far: good, but could've be way better

    Yea I totally also felt that but I loved the portrayal of anxiety in it

    Thanks for telling me your thoughts ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶
    I also love to see how others view manga that I’ve read - gives me a different perspective on it
