Wow, what an amazing story!! Incredibly well written and had gorgeous art on every panel. I feel like for better or worse a lot of things were left unsaid, but the drawings said a lot in its place. It has a very optimistic happy ending, but it feels well deserved for all the characters who fought for their happiness and have become closer as a community that have each other's backs. Can't believe it took me so long to read this one, highly recommend!!

The chapter where Daichi destroyed the wall with the crowbar and came to terms with how she wanted to live her life felt especially powerful to me :')

I came back to this after reading it a while ago and somehow saw it in a new light...I think the first time I was enraptured by the characters themselves, this time I was able to think more deeply about the artistry, the metaphors, the themes. Beautiful ughhh

Have a round of applause!
I personally think all that X-sexual and X-oriented stuff to be pretty weird to my ears and thus I don't like hearing about that kind of stuff in the stories I read.

But this just works and although I feel complicated at times when reading this enigma, I don't feel like I am being forced to accept any political ideal or like I'm hearing a lecture on this theme.

And I'm a sucker for symbolisms, so that's really a plus for me!

Although I am still a bit peeved that there are some things I just can't know in the end, I am satisfied with our two gay couples and one fresh out of the closet man!

x-gender and such is just what they call that particular thing, why do you dislike hearing about it?

This may be the best manga I've read on this website! I'm not kidding (all though I have many favorites)!!
This made me change my mindset a little and try being more open to everyone around me and think, maybe they are secretly outed. Ykwim??
Overall I really like anonymous and how they are there for everyone even tho (heh) they just kind of don't care...like they wont ask!! I love it!! because I feel like that's a good way of letting someone open up to you rather then writing a whole essay saying "open up to me! Ill comfort you!"...I feel like most venters just need someone to listen and not care (especially me, I just want someone to stfu and listen and forget).
Anyway...Yuri is peak....my lesbians get married so joyously <33 (poor old man tho)
artstyle...wooo where do I begin? it is....BEYOND AMAZING? its so detailed and well written and I love every character design there and how the art is like so crunchy yet so smooth....yum.
amazing ( ◜‿◝ )♡

The was a good read but I’m not a fan of how invested I was in the cross dressing boy’s story only for them to be written out until the very end. Then they come back and told the protagonist they’re not sorry and won’t apologize after saying extremely awful hurtful slurs (“get fucked in the ass and die fag”) over one (very insensitive I’ll admit) remark, left a very bad taste in my mouth
