Synopsis
Review This is not a well-known shoujo manga. I bought it at random because I liked the artwork. After I had it scanned I had a closer look, and I must say I'm dying to know what this is about. Incestuous desires? or D.I.V.O.R.C.E.? Another for the translation pile. No furigana.
The artwork has that typical shoujo look; sparsely drawn with thin lines, while by contrast drawings of trees and landscapes are densely drawn. The figure drawing has a not-quite-serious look, and indeed in places one of the faces and the oversized teardrops remind me irresistibly of SELFISH CAROL's SUMMER VACATION by satirist Carol Shimoda.
Reason for checking it out: Interior artwork. (GC).
