I didn't know this manga would leave me feeling how it did. Im writing this review with the vaguest idea of the manga. I read this years ago in high school. I expected what everyone else expected. Boobies. Instead I got traumatized by what should've been a quick skim read.
I dont remember what it was that got me so invested in the story that I ended up forgetting my original intentions and became invested in the characters so much. I became attached to these characters, interested in everything going on in their lives. I remember when I finished this manga, I was actually crying. A near-hentai manga made me cry. It left me in tears and so emotionally scarred that I locked it in the back of my mind, never to resurface again until recently. I decided to try to find it. Lo and behold, it was this, and I wasnt the only one who felt that way after finishing this manga.
I know recommending a manga that traumatized you probably isnt a good idea, but I know it was so damn good that it never left my mind. Maybe soon I'll regain the courage to read this again, but for now Ill leave you with an 8/10 and a strong recommendation to read this manga, not for the boobs but for the plot.
