at first he said she was like a sun then changed his mind. is this a bad thing or good thing?

I finally found the time to read it, but won't have the time to comment properly just yet.

I loved it, felt sad but also excited, even knowing where the flashback would lead was interesting for the aesthetic spectacle and the introspection.

Even for a self-published manga series, I'm enjoying it quite a bit. I'll leave a review and a rating on the main page. You seem to enjoy the praise, as you should, so feel free to read it later.

Let me give you some unsolicited advice as a western reader. The "trigger warning" is entirely unnecessary and superfluous. Have you seen even one Japanese manga with such a warning preceding a chapter or volume? There is no risk of a seizure or other similar issue in static media, and that's what that kind of warning is supposed to be for. Furthermore, it reduces the impact of the story. Let the reader experience the poignant and shocking moments themselves and come to their own terms about it. Do what you like, of course, but in my experience, when you treat your readers like proper adults (you are an R18 artist, a good one I must say), you'll get proper adults as readers.

Now for this one, it's up to readers intepretation! :>

Thank you so much for your input!
Yeah now that you mentioned it, there are no warning like that even for the most vilest shit i've read on the manga.
I initially put it on the chapter because recently something similar happened in my country, and sadly he succeeded in his attempt.

But yeah thanks!
I will no longer hold back in the storytelling

This has been going REALLY well! The execution of humour and serious moments so far is very nice. Awesome artstyles. Excited for future releases.

Hmm. I’m guessing that neck scarring is supposed to be rope burn from hanging, but it’s 1) too big and 2) too uniform (in that it’s all around the neck instead of only the front).

This type of scarring would only really occur in deep knife tissue wounds, not rope burns and I’m assumimg no one tried to decapitate her…
