a one shot what it is and that Mangaka is new generation. even if it’s short, it’s wholesome enough. also it’s based on true story by hers mother. (I read it on website) holy crap I even can’t imagine. . . anyhow, I love itself is in opening ending but makes ppl feel satisfied, meanwhile, it’s kind of a sad storyline for sure. Mariko isn’t a complete girl since she was a child. she was bullied by hers father even him raped her . . . ok it only takes u 30 mins or less to finish it but many scenes will be always stayed in your mind, won’t be forgotten. btw, it’s adapted to movie version already, u can choose which one u easy to go.
