AliceInYaoiLand's manga / #murder(5)

Wow. I don't know entirely what to say. I think this manga perfectly portrays how many sides there are to everyone. It shows how everything can be messed up just because of one mistake, it affects so much more than what you realize. This manga also showed over and over how devastating things can turn out just by not telling people how you feel or explaining things better. It shows how you have to be careful of your actions and exactly what you say. This manga...showed so many sides of each person making you feel differently about them every time you found out something else about them and their life. The ending was so sad I cried. So many emotions were given to me by this manga. There are things in here even I myself still have trouble understanding, the emotions I mean. It shows how hard it is to comprehend your own emotions and it just also happened to include emotions I have felt before and couldn't understand at the time. It also introduced ways of thinking, ways of feeling, and ways of interpreting things differently. This manga was definitely worth a read. It was both refreshing for me personally and downright heartbreaking at the same time. I've always hated how people portray "mental illness" and frankly I hate when I even hear those words. People always blow things off. "well, there were mentally unstable that's why they did it". IT'S NOT THAT SIMPLE. IT'S NOT JUST THAT PLAIN AND SIMPLE. I HATE THE LABEL I REALLY DO. THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO ARE HURT AND CONFUSED AND DON'T KNOW HOW TO ACT OR UNDERSTAND. THEIR ACTIONS ARE UNPREDICTABLE BECAUSE OF IT BUT THEY AREN'T CRAZY, THEY ARE THE SAME AS US BUT EVERYTHING INSIDE THEM IS JUMBLED & TANGLED UP. YOU WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND HOW OR WHY THEY THINK AND ACT THE WAY THEY DO. I HATE THE LABEL "CRAZY" "MENTALLY ILL/UNSTABLE" THEY ARE STILL PEOPLE. THEY ARE A MESS AND POSSIBLY UNREPAIRABLE BUT STILL, PEOPLE AND STILL HAVE EMOTIONS. IT IS NOT RIGHT TO DISMISS EVERYTHING THEY FEEL, EVERYTHING THEY'VE GONE THROUGH IN LIFE, AND EVERYTHING THEY MIGHT'VE DONE AS "CRAZY". *sigh* So yeah, this manga made me feel many things and I am very happy I gave it a chance. This mangaka is incredibly amazing. I can't though, the ending hurts I still wanna cry WHYYYYYY *sobs intensify* (I can't believe I basically read like 74 chapters in a day holy sh*t) I need a better life...

This was surprisingly pretty good. I didn't rate it high merely because I'm not into the crime genre. However, this was actually kind of interesting. What stood out to me the most was Kairi~ I looove his character. His character is so shady yet seductive and his character design is gorgeoussss. He is such a hoe, but I even like that about him lol. It's not often that an author can create a hoe that you don't instantly hate. I'm going to save this manga purely because Kairi has been added to my imaginary list of favorite characters. I felt kind of bad for not rating this a 4 star just because I was thinking "this genre isn't my particular cup of tea" at first. However, after thinking it over, there are some details that haven't been cleared up. It seemed like this story had a little more to tell. It doesn't feel unfinished though so that's good. But yeah, 3 stars is about right for my opinion on the manga as a whole. On a side note, I was really happy when I realized that the author was focusing more on the investigations and the murders. The fact that it's a yaoi was put on the side. (But when it was yaoi time...it was YAOI TIME) The point wasn't that it was yaoi. It wasn't about a romance forming either. I liked how it was just in there, like it didn't need to be but it was, and that just made it feel like gay is just normal and can be present without being the focus, you know? Idk I've always been kind of upset at how hard it is to find good stories with interesting plots (whether it be books or movies) that include gay people WITHOUT the fact that they're gay being a focus. They're just there, and it's "normal", that's all I ask when watching or reading everyday entertainment. I'm ranting pointlessly but whatever, meh. To put it simply, I appreciate the author's effort in the story without soly focusing on the yaoi aspect of it
