As much as I enjoyed this story and its characters, it's getting to the point where I'm starting to feel kind of bad for the author. Most of the panels now are empty and lifeless. There's no backgrounds, no details or shadows, no screen tones. It almost feels like line-art. Is the mangaka getting too old? Does she have no one helping her? Or is she just tired of the story? Whatever is going on, the art just doesn't feel like it has the same heart in it, and it's very saddening.
