Lonely To Organdy

Complete | ogeretsu tanaka | 2016 released

Yknow. I want to say this hit me in the feels, but I honestly just couldn't get into it. After hitting his head in an accident, out MC is suddenly able to see the 17 yr old ghost that's been living in his apartment. MC was an aspiring mucision who's given up on his dreams after a heartbreakingly disastrous first street performance, but through his interactions with this ghost, he rediscovers his love for singing. I think knowing the ghost was... a ghost and given the very grounded tone of the story, I probably checked out emotionally before I even began. I want to say this was good and that it hurt or was cathartic or whatever, I cant. I just didn't engage with the story at all, so it didn't feel any different from all the other things I've read. I think it was just objectively good from an art, story, and execution standpoint so.... 6/10

Hate no Kouya de Vacances wo

Complete | AKAGAWA Sagan | 2020 released

Procrastinated reading this bc any romance that has space will inevitably be existentially tragic. Start reading it. Not about space. Deep sigh of relief. Two oneshots later. Space. Goddammit 7/10
