The Orange manga collection is the first mange series I dived into and finished. And I’m so happy that my experience reading it has made me love mangas and excited to explore! Orange is 5 ⭐️series… I loved all the characters and their personality quirks. I loved the strength of their friendship and how they found family within each other. Orange also portrays mental health (grief, depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation) with such serenity and grace. A big TW to those topics because the series follows characters struggling with the above with a really accurate portrayal of one’s internal thoughts. But overall, the message Ichigo Takano was relating to their readers was one of hope, love, courage, and strength. I’d immediately recommend this series to anyone - manga lovers or not!
