Kimi no Yume o Mite Iru
so fucking beautiful. i loved it a lot. i kinda sped thru the first few chapters, half bc i didnt want to get too attached knowing he would die, and half bc i wasnt particularly that interested, but after the tragedy struck i was pretty much in tears til the end. god it was happy ending but im still in pain. yui just went thru so much and even if they end up falling in love again, its not the same amemori he originally loved. and amemori cant love him like he once did since hes a completely different individual and didnt spend his entire life pining after yui. god. such a good story tho nonetheless. their relationship dynamic completely changed too loool. i really love what it had to say about fate and the way our lives are intertwined. i personally believe in reincarnation, or at least id like to believe its true, so i just really liked plots crossing lifetimes and stuff like this. sometimes i find it difficult to cry even when seeing sad things but then sometimes i cry really easily even tho it might not be so sad for others. idk how this managed in such a short time but my eyes were leaking right on cue for the tugging-on-heartstrings moments. also i thought i was tripping when the cat started talking LOL. anyways 10/10 such a good read i shouldnt have waited this long to read it
Three Days of Happiness
ahhhh so much pain. so so so so so good. just, such a great concept and and even better execution. its tragic and supposedly ends with death but such a beautiful and sweet story. this is the first time ive thought to myself that a story was gentle. everything is just so melancholy from the beginning but it makes you feel so elated at the small happiness they find within each other and life. they grew to love each other so much its so sad but so damn sweet. ughhhhhh this is so fucking good. 1000/10. just a great read. fuck. i love every aspect i literally flew thru this. from the photographs of the vending machines and the thought process behind those seemingly meaningless pictures to the importance of making art and pursuing passions for yourself rather than others, i love every line in this manga. theyre such kind and generous people, even though their lives are "worth" 30 yen, theyd willingly give every last yen to each other. god it hurts. such a fucking good story. im so glad i read it.
Lonely To Organdy
agh what the fuck. im so sad. i teared up after somas live performance but it got so much sadder. why couldnt they just be together. ugh fuck why do i read tragedy in the first place. sigh. this was really really fucking good. i always feel like this author makes hits or misses but this is probably by fav thing by them. sigh. im so sad. 10/10 made me feel so many things.
LittleRain
so i'm reading this on webtoon where the new and updated version of this story is being released and it is SOOOO good i love it so much. the art is GORGEOUS. truly stunning. the music is so soothing and the story is just so interesting but also calming at the same time. it truly does feel like a warm hug i adore it. rain is sooo adorable hes actually so so so so so cute. and the other guy, alvin?, is . so . mf. fine. oh my god. hes the EPITOME of my type. thats all i want in a man actually LOL. they also look like gojo and getou in another universe, so love that. its actually kinda relieving comparing rain and gojo after the Suffering i put myself thru with jjk. maybe this is where hes at during his time in the prison realm ? haha ha h a. anyways the fl got some beautiful men surrounding her. the art is so stunning i could spend a day just analyzing the art and appreciating it. 10/10 so far. cant wait to see where the story is going.
Asagao wa Yoru kara Saku
:(((((. this was so sweet. ah man. im glad i didnt read this like a month ago i probably wouldve been a crying mess. and i still teared up this time too. i share a lot of similar thoughts as yuugen abt life and it really moved me when i saw the way his mom was dealing with the loss of her son. we take life for granted so often and push things off for some day later in the future without knowing if that day will really ever come. its normal but its definitely not how we should live. i appreciate the beauty in life and im hyperaware of the fragility of human life but i dont live my life to the fullest that i could. i want to change but i dont know where to start. im too tired to try starting tbh. oh well. as for the read, it was beautiful 9/10
Sea Foam
fuck i cried reading this. its so short but its so impactful. i hate the war so much its so pointless and i cant and never will be able to understand its purpose. what the fuck are we fighting for so badly that its worth the countless lives lost or ruined? its shit like this that makes me so grateful for the peaceful life i have. i can move on from this and spend the rest of my day without sparing a thought for my or my family's well being, but thats not the case for so many others and it makes me so sad. i never want to live like that either tho. 10/10
Haru No Noroi
hmm. honestly, though i understand how it feels to think that theres no one else you could possibly love than the person youre currently with, it really doesnt seem to be a good idea in their case. they themselves agree theyll never be able to get past the guilt. like, it makes sense for him to want to be with her considering she kinda symbolizes the freedom hes never had and plus hes been looking for a reason to get away from his family and their expectations. but for her...like girl. you can 100% find someone else to love. i guarantee it. and someone who wont make you have to give up your family for them. plus you wont feel overwhelming guilt every second youre with them? idk i feel like the kind of love thats needed to make you consider rooting for a couple in this circumstances have to be like passionately and madly in love and they just arent. i cant see them being in a real relationship much less lasting forever? yeah. but it made me sympathize w the fl for the situation. 7/10
The Horizon
so so fucking painful. i still dont really understand what kind of dystopian setting they were in but it was so cruel and horrible. i cried so much during the girl's story and after her death. they went thru so much. im glad he was able to live a long life and find some semblance of happiness and family after everything he went thru. fuck bro this world is so awful i cant believe people have to live w such horrible circumstances. im grateful i have a peaceful and safe life but these kind of stories really puts it into perspective for me. 9/10 but my eyes are swollen from crying
