i started this when i was younger, thinking it'd be a cute shoujo... but this story is a tale of generational trauma, complex familial relationships, and breaking toxic bonds.
its about surrounding yourself with people that love you rather than those connected by blood.
so many different forms of love are expressed in this story. each character is complex as well as their relationships.

this story is about a little kid who—due to CIRCUMSTANCES WHICH WILL BE REVEALED LATER—lives alone and his neighbors

— kotaro is a kid that acts as though he's an adult :( so it's extremely heartwarming to see his neighbors care for him
— deals with themes of child abuse, domestic violence and neglect
