i saw a comment that states "I don't really think...her being fat or bigger was the issue in this. At least the issue for the Mc. The fat on the character was more of a metaphor based on the negativity and hatred she'd felt all her life. That's why it like...melted off her, it wasn't a good thing for her. and the Mc even mentioned she was still cute when she was bigger so...
I dont think the point of the story is fat=bad but fat = coping mechanism from years of trauma" i remember clearly the mc says something about the girl's body still being kinda cute.
Maybe I missed it while reading
Fatphobia on point in this one. The art is beautiful though and the story seems promising.
