I feel so bad for the girl, she lost her family, then her new family one member at a time, was nearly raped by a retarded, had to see her companion nearly taking a dark turn, realized she was fed human meat, had the scared of losing her last loved one and once her life had a silver lining even a promise of a happy life with the one she loved, she dies, I know the kid also had a horrible life but damn, that girl never cought a break.
The art was gorgeous, the story well structured and the ending full of hope, overall this is a great work and even deserves an award, however.... like every tragic stories I will not read this again, at least not for several years, beautiful as they are, I honestly hate dramatic tragic stories, I read or play works of fiction to escape the a cruel reality of life not to be reminded of it and increased 10 fold.
Nothing wrong with the story it's just my personal preference.
