I’ve been reading this ever since it first came out. Was a little cautious at first because DID is misinterpreted all the time, but I’m actually surprised how accurate this one was. Also, the editing team, y’all are absolutely wonderful. Thank you so much for putting all that information together for each and every chapter. I already know a lot about DID, but I’m so happy people can learn more about it through this story. Ok one more thanks. Mangaka, thank you. Thank you for not romanticizing mental illness, trauma, or DID. You showed it for what it was, not sugar coating it, or making it part of the romance. While two alters were in love with the main character, I don’t think that necessarily mattered. It was the same as two people falling in love with another, and not the fact they were both alters. I loved this manga, so go read it. Edit 1: This may just be a mistake, but it says ongoing even tho it’s supposed to be completed. Volume 3 edit 2: nah, no volume three. Just side stories, still enjoyed them tho :)

Cute story, really bad representation of DID. Did not get the timeline on trauma right AT ALL, no repeated or recurring trauma from childhood, and overall the information was extremely misleading. All it takes is some research on wiki and that would be better than this garbage. If you’re going to write a story on a misrepresented community like DID, the least you can do is put any kind of effort towards research and accuracy. truly, a disappointment on the authors part. art is great tho lol
