Ah. This makes me feel so nostalgic. Akaiito and Aoishiro. The former got me into VN. I think that really was my first real VN, and I didn't even play it, just read through it because of the great work of Zohar and any other related people. Honestly I never finished Aoishiro in full because it was much longer and harder for me to be invested in. It was still enjoyable even if not as engaging.
I only found these a few years ago, so maybe nostalgic isn't fully the right word. But I find that there's something beautiful about rediscovering a classic and knowing that experience can't be completely recaptured anymore. In English-speaking countries at least, I wonder if works like these will still be remembered in another decade or if they will have faded away.
So anyway I should be talking about this specific manga, but I haven't actually read it so can't lol. I will return another day to comment.
