    I like this comic and your art stye. I can relate to this so much because I remember when I moved from the England to Sarasota, it was hard for me to make friends because everyone in school knew each other since they were kids. I was often alone and bullied because I was an immigrant so I was very introverted until I went to Ringling. And I felt like once I got to Ringling I made many friends and I can easily socialize with people because I share common things with them.

Week 9: Cyberpunk

Image
My experience with the Cyberpunk genre is Psycho-Pass and Neon Genesis Evangelion. This genre opens up a whole other world of what we would predict the future would be like such as technology and mixed cultural traits. It is almost like we merge with technology and even builds our identity. The question that every character goes through is what makes them human or who are we as humans. And the show reminds you that in reality. In the show, Psycho-Pass, each person has their own psychological data and it's measured how healthy our mental state is. But who has the right to judge and who is the technology that gives us who is right or wrong? Emotions are always challenged and that is common in the Cyberpunk genre.

Week 3: Gekiga

I don't know how I really feel about "Cigarette Girl". It took me a while to get into reading it just to get used to the style of Matsumoto's writing and progression. On the other hand, the context was very light-hearted and just entertaining to read. A simple slice of life of everyday life with a little humor.  However, I was not very fond of the art style. In last week's topic, I mentioned how I love Tezuka's simplistic style but with Matsumoto's style, I did not like it. I felt that his style felt bland, despite the comical moments. When I pick a certain manga, I usually judge whether I like the art style or not. I did manage to pull it through and get to understand the story a bit but I would personally not want to continue reading it.

Week 13: Oishinbo

Oishinbo generally is about cultural foods and what is in them that makes it good and how they are made. It is quite relaxing to read as it is not story-heavy but instead it tells you the many facts and appreciation of foods from other cultures. It makes the story feel more realistic. I also like how it is not exaggerated with characteristics like a lot of other shows do such as Food Wars! Shokugeki no Soma. It is a nice break to read about the cultural aspects and the value we have in our foods today.
