Host is down
Well, it managed to strongly hold my attention all the way through. When u read this kind of thing it’s not about happy feels or liking what happens (you want that read a different genre). It’s more about how much the story draws you in (either positively or negatively), how much the story affects you and how much the story sticks in your mind after reading (I tend to think if you don’t remember the story in a week, it mustn't have been very good). Though tragic and a little traumatising this one shot managed to meet all three of the categories above.
Abstraction
Intriguing concept, though it takes a few pages to get (then you have to go back and start at the beginning again) and a very imaginative and somewhat ingenious concept. It would have probably taken an extremely long time to work out and put together this art work. But the art/concepts are, at times, a little off putting. The Manga only has a VERY loose and short storyline, giving a heavy focus on the art - it’s basically one large piece of art.
Ousama no Kyuujitsu
⏯[]-️-[]⏭2 oct2020 —5️ ️ It’s been eight months since Kakurai, CEO of a preeminent domestic apparel enterprise, last had a vacation, when he meets a pickpocket. That pickpocket turns out to be a young man named Kei. Upon meeting Kei, with his sharp, rebellious eyes, Kakurai’s attracted to him, so he decides to take Kei along with him. At first, Kei acts like a wounded and cautious animal towards Kakurai, but then, seeing Kakurai’s mature behavior and sincere attitude, he begins to open his heart. Will the adult who has everything-social status, reputation, money, etc- finally be able to encounter his true love for whom he’d throw it all away?!
