emotional fast-paced

4.0

Trigger Warning:
suicide attempt

This volume was a lot about the making of the movie the gang is making and also about Shoya figuring out his connection with the group.

I really enjoyed that the author isn’t skipping out on harder subjects. This manga is a lot about abuse (physically and mentally), call-out culture, and toxic behaviors.

As for the art; I do also really enjoy when Shoya doesn’t like someone, there’s just a giant X over their face, and then when he’s on better terms with them again, the X goes away and you can see their face. It really conveys the dislike and how unbothered Shoya is with them.

I’ve said this so many times while reading and reviewing this series but I am SO GLAD I HAVE THE WHOLE SERIES RIGHT NOW. THAT ENDING!
