The Bride of God
oh god this was really, really good... the scene where the fellow guard turns into a fiend, revealing what they truly are, is incredibly well composed. i want to know more about this world. what specifically causes a mutation this consistent and this permanent? radiation is random, so maybe it's something like the gasmask children from doctor who, where nanomachines "fix" people based on a flawed template?

on side story 8 okay first I'm in mourning for jooin's long hair second this is incredible and i related to jooin a lot, growing up with even mildly controlling parents will fucking break you, especially if you're the creative type. also, the depiction of depression was top-notch?? like people usually think of depression as sadness, but that's not what it is. sometimes you do feel sad, but mostly it's feeling nothing and having no energy. everything you love stops being fun and you desperately crave for it to be fun again but you know the problem is you. you pretend nothing is wrong and smile and laugh but inside you want nothing more than to put rocks in your pockets and get to know a swimming pool. it's not even being sad, it's just a crisp psychological pain that feels like it's squirming under your skin. and the cruelty of depression is that you're aware of all this! you're so keenly, deeply aware... but you're a video playing without wifi and everything is out of focus because the thing that's supposed to drive you just... isn't edit: jooin's long hair is back i can die happy now

OUROBOROS：ウロボロス
finished ch 81 this is an incredibly good portrayal of trauma, asexuality, poly relationships, and many other things. becoming sex-obsessed after sex-based trauma is so relatable; i got sexualized way too early and at some point started clinging to everything about sex (even if i've never had it) because then maybe i could feel normal. maybe then what happened was normal. it takes over your life. if i wasn't simultaneously also repulsed and terrified of sex, would i have fallen into Woo's shoes? i don't know. I want side stories. I want to see what happened after Woo saw Nayeol. The ending is open. Did he somehow reconcile with Bonguk and Sujo?
