Blue Period.

Ongoing | Yamaguchi tsubasa | 2000 released

Edit: Feeling incredibly conflicted. News about the author has come out and it isn't great. Nothing to unusual for a manga a in all honesty but I built my hopes up thinking someone who's capable of creating Blue Period can't also create some really morally-skewed and damning work at the same time. Blue Period means so much to me, I will continue reading but I can see why people have stopped. I also feel very betrayed and hurt even though I don't know the slightest thing about the mangaka. My top manga reccomendation of ALL TIME! I've never been so entranced by a manga before this one. Every chapter, every volume and every panel leaves me a bit more breathless than before. The story it tells feels so real and tangible--realistic struggles, people and issues! plot and art are both so stunning!

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.
