katlovesfries's manga / #sweet love(23)

A sequel and/or side story to “Back to School”. This was very cute, and felt like the cherry on top. I love that the readers get an insight to characters’ life after five years has passed. It illustrates how time heals wound, though some are deeper than others. I didn’t care for the last side story about Chiwoo and Jihuyn, but I know some people will. It just wasn’t for me as I didn’t even finish it.

This story was okay, but nothing more than that. I didn't find it particularly interesting, but the age gap between the characters is done in a nice way that doesn't depicts one of them as a creep. I didn't like the art very much either, but that is just personal preference. It did ruin the reading experience a little, though.

This was an intense story about guilt, acceptance and forgiveness. It involves a character being haunted by their past, and thinking they deserve being treated unfair as well as being abused. I didn't expect it to be this dark, so proceed with caution. Fortunately, the story has a happy ending and the abuser is dealt with accordingly, but was still very hard to get through at certain times.
