The Planet Walks Alone
Completed. Mysterious, thrilling and 5-star worthy-read! An introspective exploration on human duality! From the amazing art and panels that feel alive to the storyline which is shrouded in mystery - it leaves me craving for more, I'm curious but also in awe at every aspect of this manhwa. How it ends may seem dissapointing, but I feel as though it fits perfectly with this series in all honesty. Can't wait to see more from this author!

This is really beautiful. Visually and story wise. I found it really comforting - emotional, but comforting. I really didn't want this to end so soon but it has, and it was beautiful. I've never read a manga with such amazing representations and portrayals of LGBTQ+ characters. The characters feel so real and their feeling are presented so wonderfully in the art - I often caught myself being in awe at certain pages' art.
Koko wa Ima kara Rinri desu.
Stopped reading, 2B picked up again. Not bad. A thought-provoking manga. There's a lot of emotions attached to each student, you see their lives and you understand and relate to them. It's good and refreshing to see a teacher and adult (although fictional) be so understanding and non-judgemental to younger people. Certainly, this manga is rather niche, the characters are unusual, not unbelievable per se, but they're quite unique. There were some moments and characters that made me raise my brow and some moments that didn't sit quite right with me but overall? It's fine. The art style isn't extremely out-of-the-ordinary, but the composition and execution is wonderful. Would definitely reccomend.

Ongoing, U2D. Heartbreaking, devastating and emotional. The art is complex and unconventional but I adore it. It took a while for me to warm up to but it didn't put me off reading it. Lots of symbolism and beautiful story-telling. Prepare the tissues because the emotional turmoil just grows and grows the more you read. Definitely not a light-hearted time, but still a comfort read for me, nonetheless.

Read this a while back, had a skim through just to refresh my memory. It's got a cool concept but idk, reading it was kind of boring and didn't rrally find any of this memorable outside of the concept. Maybe I'm not giving this a fair shot but I'm not interested enough to find out, oops...
