Short, simple and straight to the point, pretty much expecting for a more darker backstory about the family tho.

More messed up than i thought, and that's considering i knew it was incest. It makes me think that the author approaches her work like art - not really for others, but more as a way of expressing a thought, a feeling, experience of a person. However, I am realising not everything should be expressed, and not all ideas/inspirations should make it into artwork. This manga seems like an example of this.

Man this was painful to read and not because of the story. I get that this is the author's art style and it's probably intentional but damn the lack of emotion and expression on the characters faces is literally the downfall of this manga. Not saying that if they were expressive the story would be better but at least u would have a better read on it. I understood the whole thing up until the last ch, idk maybe I'm just so stupid to the point where smthg so obvious went over my head but at the same time they could've explained it better too. And the lack of emotions damn hell didn't help. Why sacrifice a story in the name of art for the sake of being artistic and making it hard for readers to follow (either that or the artist just isnt good at drawing expressions which might be the case but still😭)

That's way is a josei instead of a Shoujo 🤭 it's mean for older audiences.

I wouldn't say that this shouldn't be expressed. But it's true that not every work of art is meant for us. This one clearly wasn't meant for you, and that's ok.

I'm really not sure how to feel about this one. Beautiful, melancholy, tragic and disturbing. The art style put me off at first, but I think it was the absolutely right style for the story being told in the end. I really liked the imagery of a moth to a candle flame, that was a perfect metaphor for this story. Sometimes beauty both entices and destroys us.
