That was actually great.

I was about to get out, being played with by the author hinting some ecchi stuff incoming, but the truth really was well done.

I think I would have like it better if the girl died.

I thought it'd turn into a weird hentai for a second there, but I definitely wasn't expecting this kind of development. It was well executed.

I guess the author gives us trickery with the cover but i understand that the story deals with cancer patients and their last days whoever he is i have feeling he is about to make a great seinen manga in the near future when he i about to become a professional one.

Not sure how I feel about the last 2 pages, but this was great!

I sorta called the whole thing though, but that didn't stop it from being really sweet!
The 2002 Tokyo Mew Mew adaptation is not as great as you remember it being.

At first, I thought this was gonna turn into hentai soon. Maybe the daughter did die, cos the father was looking sadly at his phone. I have a feeling that she lived though.


I liked this piece of work.

RE-READ. Never thought I'd find this little piece of doujin to be in MAL.

Elegant trolling. At the first, I thought, "Maaan... Another loli crap?" After read it on and on and on...



Gotta hand it. If Bleach's troll can be as elegant as this, I'd be happy.

8/10 for that elegant troll.
HOW TO SAVE ANIME IN THREE SIMPLE STEPS

  1. To have Mars of Destruction, Skelter Heaven, and Pupa properly adapted in TV series form by Madhouse
  2. To have Inferno Cop properly adapted in TV series form by Bones, director: Urobuchi Gen
  3. An anime crossover of Mushishi x ARIA x Haibane Renmei.


Should even one of the above conditions cannot be done, anime is still at risk.

I decided to read it because I saw it in the top doujins and then saw everyone saying it's not what it looks like.
Indeed, it's not, but it's still misleading and has some very disturbing lines. I didn't like it.

Well, somebody mentioned this in MAL in a positive light as a surprising piece and I decided to give it a go...

...I didn't like it. Regardless of the always too invasive aspect of perviness and risky stuff, it turns that the twist is not particularly well delivered, and neither does the situation look real or thorough enough. It was a nice curiosity at most, but I didn't get invested on the characters and their erratic relationship, with a writing that seems more focused on delivering and revelling in the troll to catch the readers off-guard than on actually making interactions look natural.

I think she actually died, just look at her father, he's way older than before but she still looks the same, not to mention she's wearing (if i'm not mistaken) a winter uniform even though it certainly is summer.

I've heard that Obon is a celebration in which the dead are returning to their homes, maybe that has something to do with this.

I'm glad I gave it a chance and I'm glad it didn't turn out to be something sick XD

I really liked the short story. Though we don't know if she's dead or she lived and used the uniform that her father gave her. Still he looked a little aged and even had bleached hair, though the author put is that the story was an inconclusive end. So that means that this short story is up to your interpretation. Personally tha argument that she lived is strong as incense is also used for killing bugs, the father wasn't crying from the the video(expected especially when the kid you raised dies), and looked behind himself.
Yeah right there is no way a doujin about vomit exists.

A bit of an ambiguous ending there. She could be dead or alive at the same time. But I'm assuming she is dead.

Then what we saw on the last pages is her ghost or father's imagination?

I guess that I spoiled myself reading the genre tags before reading just so I can verify what I'd be reading but they still got me in the first half not gonna lie.

I nearly teared up over how he spoke about his plans to be with her every step of the way past her surgery. I was glad that she somehow made it but reading the other posts here and rechecking the ending only to see it making sense was an oof. Damn.

I know this wasn't a hentai going by the tags, but I was expecting some dirty comedy mango at least. The cover and few first pages were truly misleading, but it turned out to be pretty wholesome and emotional, glad I've read this.

You had me in the first half not gonna lie. Maybe I should've checked the cover more carefully. As you can see, the "dad" is crying too. It turned out really sweet, though I'm not so sure what happened to her.

It's interesting how this mangaka keeps having this style to have odd, creepy or perverted concepts turned into comedy with legit drama at times.

It's kinda funny, and bittersweet, but soothing in the end for the fact that the surgery is successful in keeping her alive from her illness.
Funny, I actually thought this was a creepy sexual harrassement type of story from the cover for a long time. Decent One-Shot. 5/10.

Honestly, I didn't think it was all that great. I mean, for what it is, it certainly isn't terrible either, but I really think it would've benefitted from being a bit longer. :\

Am I the only one who didn't think it was that sad? Like, I understand that the subject matter is inherently sad, but I just couldn't get attached enough to the characters to really feel anything... :\

That would have been pretty cool.

While no, the dad is not a creep after all, this was executed in a strange way, and the ending was not very good.

Most misleading cover art ever, but it's by design so it's actually kinda genius.

It's kinda bittersweet how you can interpret how the surgery went
