Welcome to Litsy!

My dogs expression is mine too. This is a very very dark horror manga about a man who stalks the cool guy he has a crush on and falls into a much much worse situation. It does do a job of giving you extreme dread throughout, but I can‘t say I liked it. 3.25⭐️

#manga is a terrific way to get reading in when a #toddler is present.

and as always, I love libraries! #fantasy #nonfiction #medicine

3/5⭐ I like the sweet and serious moments between Shiva and Teacher, but the lack of answers to the same questions that have been asked for several volumes is getting kind of annoying.

My first manga! Was a cute and cozy story and I have book 2 on deck already. I‘m in a bit of a slump and this was an easy, cozy read to help ease me back into things. 😊 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

It's not just the ray of sunshine little girl amongst the many cursed creatures, it's that the author/illustrator has such a fine sense of when to add just a touch of the absurd. Remarkable that something so gothic provides this many giggles.

This volume is more emotional than the last three. It deals with some very taboo scenarios (age gap and student/teacher) and it deals with the emotional repercussions that near the end, overflow. That being said, I was snorting at this panel (which I think is my favourite), as emotions were boiling over. I can‘t handle someone falling, even if I‘m tearing up. 🤣

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I liked it alot it was fun fast to read and a great shojo manga that made me want to read more shojo

I think if you have to wait for each volume, you can get frustrated with the storyline, but back to back, you see the simplicity in Nakamura‘s storytelling mesh wonderfully with the detail in their art. Nakamura‘s not going to tell you something is happening, they‘re going to show you with tearful eyes, clenched hands (watch the hands 🥵) and hostile glares.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I live for Nakamura‘s art. Long, lanky and fluid, people are almost animalistic/reptilian in some way. It is hard to explain but it‘s gorgeous. A simple beginning to a story: two boys meet and enter into a friendship, almost relationship. They‘re feeling each other out, and it‘s sweet and heartwarming.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Reviewing the whole series here because I think on a volume to volume basis, you can see the flaws in the storytelling (random jumps in time, somewhat choppy), but as a whole, it‘s a wonderful story of two guys with different forms of trauma trying to navigate life and a new relationship. It‘s sweet, hilarious at times, and tough at times. I really enjoyed Mio and Shun.
