It handles all of these with maturity and tact imo. It's incredibly unique compared to most VNs.
Although there is a lot of suffering, there is a lot of love and even light-hearted bits sprinkled throughout, so it's not just a gloomfest. But it's a very, very heavy read.
I can handle that, I just like to know what I'm getting myself into before I decide to buy something.
Imagine someone ripping your heart out, dropping it on the floor and stomping on it, smashing it to a pulp and then slapping a "luvs and kisses" bandaid and giving it back to you. And you enjoy it.
But nah, it's a heavily emotionally exhausting based ride that runs off of pain and heartbreak but ties well in a very satisfactory ending. Tbh the first half of it or so is kind of ehhhh but once you get to a certain point « Cow Poopoo » GETS REAL and it's soooooo good. It took me a couple days to finish it, but the last half of it I kind of did in 2 days and I was a mess. Bawling my eyes out, snot everywhere, my sleep cycle just a wreck, etc. etc. But totally worth it. Definitely try to space it out if you do end up getting it tho. That « Cow Poopoo » takes its toll.
It's a treasure and I recommend it highly. But it is a tough ride, ngl. Was a very cathartic experience for me.
