It was okay, I sped through it, I wouldn't read it twice.

Hitoribocchi wa Samishikute

Shio has no friends and is known as a devil, because she often writes something in her notebook.
Though, no one has seen what she has written in it. Until that day....

To tell the truth, it's very cute at times (both the art and some of the story) but I didn't quite enjoy it. Reason one being that most of the story relies heavily on Shio's beautiful singing and other music and it's very hard to imagine. And reason two being that it's one of those reckless teenage stories of rebelling against parents and "the man" and the school and grown ups in general. As a teenager I've felt oppressed by adults on multiple occasions but I still can't fully support a story of teenage rebellion and disrespect.

It was pretty unique, the story line...not the best. The art was beautiful. By the same mangaka who wrote Suppli.

See You In Eden









This is a story about Tamako's 3 years at an art highschool. It's a story about her struggle to improve her art and prove her worth and make difficult decisions about the future.

Opinion
No romance, but it was really nice. I felt at the end like I just had finished reading a long deep novel. The story gives you that feeling you get when you are about to leave high school and you don't know what awaits you afterwards.

I don't even remember what happened anymore. It was either super super short or it didn't even leave an impression.
