It's good to read all these small facts that have big implications and I appreciate the author's honest but what good is all that if she doesn't act on it. Only feeling bad about it isn't enough.

It quite surprised me because it was more thoughtful and philosphical than I expected it to be. If fighting and war is all you ever knew, how do you find a place for yourself in the world when there's no fighting anymore?

It's cute and lighthearted. But I don't get why they keep it a secret and as of now, there's nothing super special about the characters or the story. Which is okay, maybe it's just a feelgood manga and we all need that from time to time
