    I was actually so surprised by the heavy topics this manga ACTUALLY ADDRESSES?? There aren't many who talk about the issues of homophobia for bi/lesbian girls and how alienating it can feel to like a girl but also not really know if it is friendship or romantic love? Compthet is also tackled although I think it can develop so much more throughout the rest of the story with Em as a character, and Taka's bestie is just so supportive didn't even blink an eye when she was telling her about her sexuality. Really pleasantly surprised by this, can't wait to read the following parts!

    This is my first encounter with Bonam-Young's writing and oh boy did it charm me to the bone. I'm not one to connect with short stories even if I am already familiar with the author's writing and characters, so I did not expect very much from this work but I was gladly surprised. The prose I believe it to be not only so well done that it completely immerses the reader from the very first page, but the characters also felt so real and developed even in this tiny compressed story; dialogues are realistic and although sometimes a bit cheesy I was eating it up!! And the plot was soooo original, I don't remember having read a story like that. Sending kisses to all the beautiful lesbians from the 1900's who couldn't be out then, I hope you are happy wherever y'all are, and proud of the advances we have achieved! Overall quite successful in what it wanted to achieve, I found myself wanting to read more from the author after having such a great time with this short but beautifully written story <3
