    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 8: My Lesbian Experience with Loneliness

This manga was enjoyable and difficult to read at the same time, due to how relatable it was. The pacing and illustration were really well done, easily readable without being too fast nor too slow. It captures the element of everyday life struggles and dealing with a mental illness. Plus, just reading a couple of chapters about her life, I feel like I already understand her and want to be her friend. The challenges she faces are what many people go through and it is so powerful how she portrays it explicitly with no shame or fear. The simple pink palette gives it a nice aesthetic touch too. I definitely recommend it to many people.

Week 12: Silver Spoon

Image
The story takes place in an agricultural school where people are very familiar with livestock. Hachiken has a strong relationship he had with this pig named Katsudon every since it was a baby. He raised it and cared for it as it was his friend. But eventually, he had to give Katsudon away and bought his meat, and made a pork barbeque. He was sad and did not take it for granted, as he appreciated more than anyone else. And eventually, Hachiken gave everyone a wake-up call that livestock is not just animals but their friend who gives you life. Animals are cherished and appreciated, giving them the rights that they deserve. This anime gives a really strong message that animals give us food on the table and we should be more appreciated for them than ourselves who work for the food. It truly makes me think how much we are not thankful enough for the sacrifices these animals make and I believe every animal needs to live a happy fulfilling life because they deserve it more than we do.

Week 9: Cyberpunk

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.
