dark emotional hopeful inspiring reflective sad tense medium-paced

5.0

This manga was a heavy, emotional read BUT I can not explain how wonderful and relatable this mangaka's story was to me and anyone facing a difficult parent/child relationship. I really enjoyed how the author described this frustratingly numb feeling that many people face as well as the guilt and frustrations that come with it. 
If you are looking for a good Non-Fiction manga to read, and aren't afraid of raw emotions- totally give this one a go.
