this is another one of those stories i almost didn’t read because i started the first chapter and decided i didn’t like the art style. but i gave it a chance, and i ended up loving it—especially the side characters. they were executed perfectly. there were so many times i just sat there laughing at the artist’s commentary or the panels themselves. there were a ton of genuinely funny moments, and i’d say i’m not someone who laughs easily. i was consistently cracking up while also getting really into the romance between the two main characters. it was honestly such a good read, i’d recommend it to anyone. the whole alien thing almost lost me at first, since i wasn’t sure i’d vibe with that concept, but they pulled it off so well. it ended up being this heartfelt, funny, and super endearing story with a really strong subplot about self-acceptance and figuring out who you are beyond your environment or family. amazingly well done—i thoroughly enjoyed this one.
