Ng._.uyen's manga / #Rape(46)

Ok, this actually has a pretty cool plot and if this was a full manga (and not a one-shot doujinshi) I'd totally binge this. Overall this was cool and I really like the art style.

This was generally a really heartbreakingly beautiful story. It really encompasses an example of a situation where a person cannot forgive themselves for what they did so they deal with that pain by hurting themselves, nicely. While this exact situation may not be real, the author definitely expressed those emotions of pain, retreat, and guilt through their writing very well. The dialogue between the characters and especially their facial expressions was on point and really helped add even more emotion and depth to the story. I also really loved the author's art style for both stories, it is briefly mentioned in the "authors comments" that they produced both stories within the span of 3 years. You could see how their art style changed and gotten better while at the same time still was able to maintain that aspect unique to this author. Overall I generally did enjoy reading this story, and it gave me my dose of sadness that I need once and a while when reading tons of BL's daily.

Since this is technically "ongoing" I have no idea how this ends, HOWEVER, I did watch the live-action? The movie? IDK, whatever it's called I watched it, and tbh not my cup of tea. I think just seeing REAL actors acting out these kinds of situations just makes me ULTRA uncomfy. So I read the manga right after and have to say that I definitely enjoyed the manga more, HOWEVER, it still goes to stand that this is not my favorite genre so I didn't enjoy it as much as I have other manga. The plot was interesting but this is just not my thing.
