I only bought Umibe no Onnanoko because of the author, while i didn't expect it to be as good as Goodnight Punpun i did expect some level of similarity between the two.

A Girl on the Shore feels like its replacing deep, thought provoking mature themes with sex. I did come into it expecting at least one sex scene but it was a bit ridiculous at the amount of them. If it focused more on the character's psychological state more i think it would've been more enjoyable. Don't get me wrong, it does show the character's psychological state, just not as much as i would have liked. The ending was also weak in my opinion.

The art was amazing, as expected. Had a few full page panels which were really nice.

Overall an enjoyable read that i would recommend. If it had focused more on what the characters are feeling rather than what they are doing, it would've been better.
