It was great! Although it would be nice if the pages weren’t doubled so had to zoom in all the time. But was definitely worth the zooming! Thank you!

they were restored by the power of just gals being pals.

If I pretend I didn’t see the one shot tag I can pretend there’s a chapter 2 where they work together to repair their relationship and get back together and heal.

[OmbreVengeresse]

Very good One Shot! Ty for the translate!

i guess the zombification at the end was the metaphor of her just "let's stop thinking" and consoling each other to heal the wounds in their hearts

 

[Shamz]

Hey that was a really good story. Using zombie apocalypse but the zombie apocalypse was not the real sickness.

 

[Hyacyon]

it's hard to convey the full depth of meaning from one lang to the next, but this one was pretty good!

i rly liked the metaphor and using the zombie disease as an analogy for humanity honestly

also helps the art was good!!!!

zombification at the end

I think it's the opposite. She had been feeling like a emotionless zombie but reconnecting with Caixing helped her regain herself. See how she metaphorically "transformed" back into human during the kiss. The author also talked about an "antidote" in the postscript.

The zombification was a physical representation of her emotional wounds that she never treated and as su h never healed. The reversal of it and her becoming human right before crying is showing her allowing herself to heal as she said she never cried since she had to be stoic always. Now she is finally able to cry and let all of those years of emotional damage out and allow herself to begin to heal. It is. Really beautiful message

I really like the art style and the story is touching, but maybe I am a zombie because I still don't think that Caixing deserves Kaichang's forgiveness. I'm not going to deny that there can be some healing involved in a moment of mutual vulnerability, but I have to willingly believe that this moment is just the start, as opposed to having seen Caixing do really any redeeming herself.

I have mixed feelings about this. I get it (I think) about the metaphor of zombies, of allowing ourselves to be honest with others and also ourselves. To let our mind and body get heals by others, love, acceptance. And not lettings grudges makes us insensitive and rotten. But... reconciling with someone and even more an exe shouldn't be so free?

They did break up before for a reason! We saw how she poorly presented her to her friends, we also saw how she tends not to take things seriously, and maybe there were other things too. But you can't just "Let the past be the past" and put all your old grudges under the carpet and forgive someone because there are more serious things in the world, and you have to "forgive others to heal yourself" and holding grudges don't let you enjoy life to the fullest...

Maybe it's me, but I can't just forgive someone so easily even thought they show a sad face, or they are on the verge of tears or there is a zombie apocalypse. An apology, an explication, showing that they are truly sorry for their actions and mostly that they understand what they did, and they will never do it again, that's the things that should let you consider forgiving them.

I'm not saying people shouldn't have empathy, but they shouldn't let things slide so easily. And mostly things that hurt them so deeply. Again, communication is the key.
