@r3naknyght I think I disagree. while I liked most parts of the chapter, that she didn't break down fully into total ugly-cry mode like the wn had is a real shame, like the most they did was slightly darken under her eyes to show she looks "terrible". even beautiful people get real fucked up when they start abloobloobloo-ing, and the way it was shown in this chapter visually didn't really feel like it matched the emotion of the dialogue, just some light tearing up in the corners of her eyes, her face doesn't scrunch up, etc. completely different series of course, but One Piece totally does it right. When you are really just sobbing your heart out, you ain't pretty. you got snot running out your nose, rivers of tears streaming down your face, mouth contorted in grief or anger, brow furrowed as you squeeze your eyes shut, face wrinkled as you tighten the muscles in your cheeks. The artist for this is really good most of the time, but I don't think they have much experience in doing dramatic expression changes on manga character faces like that, or didn't want to sully the beauty of Iris, which if that was the case, would make it that much worse.
Also, I couldn't wait and read ahead to the current WN translations(196 or so) and boy howdy this series is real good, I can't wait to see this entire arc visualized and some other scenes later on in manga form as well. The current WN arc if the manga gets that far will be absolutely brutal to see visually I think
