Sharing into the void but Given once again just impacting me so much.. When I saw Umi E, the lines about how you think you remember everything so vividly but then as time passes you it hurts a little less and you can't remember the exact details anymore but the ones that still matter are there has hit me so hard. I recently lost my dad and the grief has been so much.
I know people have opinions but when I see people call Given overrated or ignore some big aspects of it I just do get a little mad because it does have so so much heart. And I think the author has given so much to Given - I will always be thankful they wrote this and whatever they continue to choose to put out there. It became a long and intense project.
I'm going insane trying to remember what the title is:
In the first chapter it was a guy who was originally from a Hi-Tech future fighting aliens? He then blows up everything with himself since all his comrades died and then found himself reincarnated into a fantasy world as like a 15/16 yo lord (blond haired). Then typical fantasy male lead stuff happens.
What I liked was that it was not setup for him to take over the country or something like that - it was getting sort of interesting where he meets like a Prince / heir to throne on the way while negotiating to get water from a lake from where I left off.
I need more so badly
