same, I like a good angst but this is just too much miscommunication no jutsu
This is something that goes outside the usual "teenage" angst we're used to, though. And I love it for that. The whole reason this comic made me cry was because of the heavy suicidal themes. It's not the usual "miscommunication" theme. It's meant to deal with societal issues that may occur based on gender and includes actual political strife only meant for the reader to infer upon first look.
The thing that upsets me is that I finally found something that treats suicide and self-harm as a serious issue, and it's being translated by someone who is just plugging into google and not taking time to care about it. The first few chapters were great. Why did it turn into google translate and cropped into 8bit shit-posting?
Don't ruin this for me
well, all we can do is just wait for official translations. Its mangago afterall. Maybe the previous translators stopped and someone is picking up after a while
ah. I may have misunderstood you, effa. When you said "miscommunication no jutsu" I first thought you meant the characters (which still applies because it needs to be addressed). I didn't fourth-wall it and realize you meant the translators were jutsuing the fuck outta me. I'm so sorry ˚‧º·(˚ ˃⌓˂ )‧º·˚
lol. its ok. I forget that the meaning of the phrase was interchangeable in angst genre.
We angst in 4 dimensions, cuz

For me, I find Violet's struggle very valid and I relate to it. However i still have issue with the plot that is built around trying to redeem Winter and make this all a big funny misunderstanding. I was already saying "DIVORCE THAT F****" even 5 chapters b4 she brought up divorce. Because his personality sucks balls. He's basically toxic masculinity without the masculinity regardless of whether he actually likes her or not. I mean, he claims to like her and do all the things like buying her stuff (which was his decision, not her) and not doing the bare minimum of listening to her, or even trying (something any human would have thought of with at least a braincell.) He is just irrational beyond human reasoning and for goodness sake, this marriage should not even be saved. So yes, I really love what the author did with Violet but just mehhh on how she's trying to make this a romance, which required ML to be redeemed despite it already too little too late.
It's been a while since a comic made me cry. The suicide themes are a bit too relatable and I feel bad for both sides. Obviously, there are third parties involved that are causing strife for both husband and wife.
I just wish the translations in the last few chapters were a bit better, because we're losing a bit of context with poor translation. It's hard enough in perfect English to imply a POV switch due to character's swapping bodies... A poor translation with this theme is not going to do well. You can't abbreviate or imply things here. There needs to be nuances that a basic translation cannot provide.
