NOOOoooOOOo I swear every shoujo manga uses the same recipe with misunderstanding as the main ingredient
the romcom and drama formula
plankton could only hope he had it
Yeah.. as the chapter progressed I had a feeling his last body was going to end up as “that person”, tho the passing of 30 years was surprising .. wonder how this would end..
10/10 reread this after a few years and did not fail to make me cry hard again.
Wasn’t gonna cmmt but I feel like I have to since this webtoon is SO undeservingly underrated & more ppl should know abt it;
The whole webtoon comprises of only 22 episodes but it is easily one of my most favourite creative works that had greatly influenced my general perspective and outlook on “life”.
Every chapter is so well done and unique- it positions you to really contemplate the consequential impacts following the actions and choices you are making in life. raw and human. After Death acts as a light reminder of everyone’s inevitable death whether a person is deemed “good” or “bad”.
- “You think that death is nowhere close in your future, so you tend to care less about it” “But just being aware of it can change things” -
I’m a fat sucker for words and especially love the dialogues in After Death- the authors are geniuses in art direction where they structure each episode so well the stories become so life-like and every encounter with the characters forced me to become emotionally attached to their life story despite the shortness of it all. It is just so well executed. I can’t say it enough, it’s so difficult to find manhwas/mangas/work etc that can express something so meaningful in just a few picture panels and words. I could say more but honestly just read it yourself and you’ll understand.
**HIGHLY recommend to read this on WEBTOON instead since most chapters are accompanied with beautiful music that amosphercially contemplates each story. It makes a huge difference. The cmmts by other readers will also provide more depth and understanding to the episodes. Also simply reading and liking the chapters on WEBTOON will support the author. please.
If you’re still thinking of whether to read this, do yourself a favour and JUST DO IT- it’s rather short anyways and a great experience. I wish I could reread it again with a fresh mind.
“so where does the trauma come in” LOL he was so serious hahaah
I am SOO satisfied with the ending but I rlly did feel like a clown excitedly scrolling & slowly anticipating to see future Touma’s face- i even had my imagination ready with his hair grown out .. even a small snippet of him smiling at the end would’ve been good TT ah my heart
WHAT NOOO so unexpected- I wanted the mc and mr. Fahrenheit to meet irl at least once, especially after his words in their last conversation!
SO CUTE
although i don’t mind it only being a cute and fluffy story, a part of me lowkey wants a love rival to be thrown in future chapters when their relationship had developed further + seeing a flustered Ueno jealous muhah
also if this series does continue to become longer, I think i would tear up if there were a future timeskip and they got married since I’ll prob be attached to the characters lmao
haha “white blood” had a feature in the karaoke screen! love when manhwas make small collabs like this
