otakulys's manga / #death(132)

Aw. Short and sad little artsy piece. Not much going on, but the art was interesting. Too bad it's just a little snapshot.

Pretty weird and random so far. We'll see what happens.

I don't know why I'm torturing myself with this, knowing how it ends. I thought I could handle it, then the flashbacks showed up. I don't know if I can take watching a sweet, beautiful love develop, knowing that it all falls apart in the most painful way possible, with no happy ending. But here I am.

Eh? That escalated quickly. Way too short, and pretty weird. Was that dark humor, with her casually being like, you idiot, now I'm gonna die? Or was it just an awkward point of dialogue? Either way, it was too short and abrupt to leave much of an impression.

Mixed feelings so far, as this is a weird freaking manga. Oddly gets LESS weird when the hell brothel comes in. But I like the art, even when it's strange. I'm intrigued, at any rate. I hope it doesn't disappoint. Four chapters isn't enough to be sure, but I hope that it's long enough to satisfy what it's set up. Also, lol at whoever tagged this as "slice of life."

So sad! D: Very beautiful, though. This artist is great at that. I cried, just from these few short pages. She draws crying boys so well. I'm getting a weird, crying boy fetish here. Anyway, if it had been a bit longer, it would have been even more painful, so I guess I'm glad it was brief.

Golly, mister! You didn't have to have a bunch of guys gang rape me to show you liked me! Next time, just ask me out! Tee hee!

Eh. I guessed the entire thing by the description alone, and I assume most other people will, too. It had some potential regardless, but the translation made it hard to get into it. Still, an effort was made all around, so that's worth noting.

I knew what to expect, and I read it anyway. Now I'm ugly crying and trying not to sob. This is such a beautiful, tragic story. They just loved each other so much. The back and forth from when their lives were happy and their futures were ahead of them just made it all that much more painful. I just hope there's a heaven for things like this. In a fictional world, we can decide for ourselves that they're together again in death.

Nothing really happens here. It's just super sad. The idea of slowly losing someone that way, to the point of them not even knowing who you are, is pretty heartbreaking.
