Jay's manga / #Psychological(3)

Summary: A girl develops a complex about herself after her mother thinks of her as a hideous iguana. Review: This whole story shows why it's so important to make sure you are stable as a person before you decide to bring an innocent life into this world. The way Rika's mother saw her and treated her bled into every aspect of her adolescent and adult life, causing her to think every positive thing that happened to her was undeserved or nothing more than a joke. I believe that it ended perfectly, and somewhat gave Rika the closure she deserved, although it seems that she will never not view herself as an iguana. However, it would've been interesting to explore her mother's past and why she truly was the way she was. As with all situations concerning child abuse, it really makes you wonder who someone could've been if raised by the right people/ given better circumstances.

Summary: The ugly and shy Che Qiu Yuan was rejected after he had confessed to the school diva. He was even crowned with the nickname, “gorilla”. His self-esteem was crushed. Therefore, he decided to turn over a new leaf, “start a new life”, and transform into a dazzling prince charming. From then on, he thought he was invincible. However one day, he was overshadowed by a narcissist classmate. Review: All time favorite for sure. This is how couples should be; lifting each other up and helping your partner be the best version of themselves. I love that it dives so deeply into insecurity and what it can do to people (mentally).
