Idk about this one i liked the netflix show better lol… the main character was sometimes highly relatable but most of the time just gave me the impression that the author has never actually interacted with a woman ever. Nor a black person. The lengths to paint the main character as a “slut” was also so unnecessary and unrealistic idk. Its a no from me

I love this 😭 classic shojo but really addictive and has like a supernatural undertone kind of? Rural shinto practices etc. The characters are really young but its not gross, its extremely relatable and feels true to my adolescence and is also a cautionary tale of exploitation of young girls which i think is important. Also the art is amazing.

This was pretty sick, a little hard to follow at times if you don’t realize the main character is like daydreaming half the time. The ending was so awesome
