reina's manga / #slice of life(34)

Nagata Kabi can never catch a break yet they are able to give awareness abt the realities of adult life through their manga based on their own experience. I can only hope they get better bcs they deserve it. Also someone should pick this up ToT.

everyone is a huge POS. the least unbearable was probably that teacher. sure she felt guilty but when she didn't do anything for her, I don't think she is a good character either. it was realistic also, people do have inner monologues of hatred that most of the time also reflects who they are as a person, they pick on hibari because they couldn't face their own narrative, insecurities and self. it was realistic in a sense that if you can't save yourself, you can't save others too. their redemption is somehow like clinging to hibari for help, atleasttt it was my interpretation. i feel bad for hibari and what she had to go through, just when i hoped for her happiness it was an open ending :(

to live in the countryside with the beach as your view with two lesbians and a caring grandma on top of being a novelist with a cute bf, TO BE SHUN!!!!!!

reading masterpieces like this reminds me of the fact that before mothers were mothers, they were humans too. before they were looked down by society as simply caregivers of the household (which i totally disagree w the simply bcs doing housework is just as hard as a corporate job) they have their own lives outside of being just a mother, they have hobbies, and they can be broken too. i really like stories that goes in depth with women relationships and motherhood, two women navigating life for the first time with each other. shows that mother & daughter relationship isn't always wholesome, sometimes, it is more complicated than anything. there are times that i would hate my mom's actions and words, its natural, but at the end of the day, i'll always come to her. i wish we get to have more literature like this :( we regret because we love.
