VOID by Ranmaru Zariya, Ranmaru Zariya

4.0

This one is kinda upsetting at first, and I realized, so does her other works. Void is heavy, direct, and explicit as all reflected in Zaria's other works.

This series revolved around a sort of twisted retaliation from an old betrayal that mellowed out to be love. Human punishing humanoid, as if there could be anything more empty as nothing as this idea. Of course, the dead won't hear your raging heart. The object that he left is merely a memento; a body without soul. But that is what the story is actually about.

Void is the empty feeling, the untouched bird cage... wanting to catch life if he'd be lucky enough to get it. After 7 years of the uninhabited, hollowed chest, Maki finally got the chance he lost to give his life meaning. It was when a friend (ex-colleague) gifted him a humanoid that mirrored his dead traitorous former lover's appearance and memories. Bewitching, tormenting—a hauntingly beautiful tale of grief and acceptance. This is such a gem.
