there are some works of fiction that are not inherently painful; it struck you so deeply, however, to the core of your soul--drawing tears with its tenderness and softness. this manga is one of it. it is not painful, no, not tragic. but, no matter how, it surely will bring tears for the readers. maybe because the manga completely capture how stuffy first love can really be. maybe it's the beauty of its simplicity, the imagery on every pages. the simple yet stunning art style.
simple, yet powerful story.
