Ive read this years ago but Im that petty and there will be some spoilers ahead...
Plot
At first glance the story is so interesting. Soko who is the main character has a not so great past family issues and definitely a terrible husband. She has an abusive husband and at one point she just cant take it anymore and asks for help. And of course she gets help from none other than your local insecure lesbian Chiyomi. Chiyomi is an old friend of hers and it is very obvious that she was in love with Soko. Knowing this Soko uses Chiyomi to try to save herself from her miserable life. Like I said the plot is very interesting and theres nothing I love more than two lovers killing the abusive husband and running off together. However the story sadly isnt just about this
Problems
Everything starts to get worse after Chiyomi kills Sokos husband. There are just so many things wrong with Chiyomi that I geniuenly dont know where to start. Dont get me wrong I wasnt expecting to see a normal relationship in this manga and I was actually into the toxic relationship they had. But the execution of this was not for me.
Anything good to say?
I actually liked the visuals. The art wasnt perfect but it was very unique and pretty in my opinion.
Overall
The plot is very interesting so its a shame that Nakamura decided to go this way with the story. I wasnt expecting any sort of happy ending to begin with but overall this just wasnt for me. Mainly because I couldnt care less about the characters at some point. Their emotions felt hollow and their motivations inconsistent... I really wanted to like this manga but I couldnt. Despite its promising plot the problems Ive discussed ultimately prevented me from fully connecting and engaging with the story.
