it’s a very raw and beautifully written story about bullying that shows how weak and how isolated it can make people feel. loved it so so much, wished there was more as it captured the feelings perfectly.
it also shows us the inevitable and slow deterioration of kojima and it felt so real. i do wish i could have known more of her ending.
beware though… there is like two scenes of the main kid jerking off…
