Tai's Manga

started out weird and intriguing and ended with me in TEARS. Very funny but with an underpinning of melancholy that becomes more pronounced in the later chapters, genuinely creepy and the art is...an acquired taste. Basically if u like ito junji and sweet highschool romance with a big side of goofy comedy then i strongly rec giving this a try.

this is like a modern fairytale in the vein of Tim Burton (but less goth..y) and Guillermo del Toro (but less grotesque). To give an idea of the tone. And as for The story itself, you’ll see elements of tarzan, frankenstein, the shape of water and to a lesser extent pinocchio (he just wants to be a Real Boy! This can actually apply two characters in the main cast...) and dare i say a smidge of edward scissorhands? I do want to be clear though, its small elements that add a sense of what kind of story you’re in without feeling derivative or cliche at all. Perhaps the greatest achievement of this comic though is it somehow brought out serious pathos from a character that is a Talking Bird. (anyway i loved this so much pls read it)
