Just finished listening to this and, already, I want to reexperience it!
Unexpectedly, I enjoyed myself so much in thinking about these characters, their dynamic and the mystery (in part because I was preoccupied both by the actual story and my own potential film adaptation of it; there is something about this setting and the people presented herein which fills me with the desire to play paper dolls and add a million little moments of my own invention to this narrative)
This couldn't have come at a better time to cheer me up <3
(Also, I cannot be held responsible for the weird way I interact with this story – it's the brain worms)
Well fuck

What if you wanted to read something new but God said "faggot! you will return to february 2023!"
I don't mean for this to sound self-important, but when I say that this feels written specifically for me...
But seriously, thank you to the author who set this beautiful retelling to paper. I couldn't be more grateful for those hours of simple joy I felt while reading it. "Throughout history, people loved one another and persevered" seems so evident a thing, but I'm just as happy each time I hear it
Pretty good start, but abruptly goes downhill for me after the New York part. Maybe I just don't care for spy thrillers and big-scale conspiracies.
(Also could definitely have been shorter!)
Why is the cover of the Penguin edition some random blue-eyed woman when they keep repeating over and over that she has green eyes? Had to remove the dust jacket while reading, it was bothering me that much
Can't believe Ariana Grande wrote a certified platinum single based on a single panel from Nana, Vol. 1, page 82.
The girls who get it, get it, but unfortunately I'm kind of lukewarm on this one. Fully convinced that I'd like it more if I read the original, in Japanese.
