10 years where I loved you the most

Complete | Choda | 2000 released

Let’s just say I’ll never read this again. It was sad enough that I read backwards from the last chapter to lessen the pain (as I read the comments beforehand) and I still decided to quit. I’m glad I never read from the beginning otherwise I’ll never get over it. There was no happiness, no hope, not even a glimmer of redemption in this entire story. Those who suffered the most died. The main cause of all suffering lives, I guess to suffer alone, but it feels terribly unsatisfactory, like a killer getting away with murder to atone for his sins by himself. Justice was never served. Nothing could have made this bittersweet. This story was black and blue from the beginning and it ended that way too. Crying as I’m typing this. Never. Ever. Read. This

One of the most realistic and bittersweet manga I’ve ever read. Even after everything they’ve gone through, especially the poor Uke, I can’t believe he only lived until 52. With all the shit that life has handed him, I was hoping they’d make it to 90s together, hand in hand, but the overall vibe of this manga is just one big tragic happiness. At least they ended up being family, with loving parents and supportive friends. But the tragedy seems so realistic I almost wish it was sugarcoated a bit more just for satisfaction
