My Alcoholic Escape from Reality

My Alcoholic Escape From Reality. Nagata Kabi, seeing the author draw out a manga of their real experiences, is comforting seeing how they got there and where they're going. Although, it goes to say Kabi previous experiences felt more personal and emotional tied together. Often dealing with loneliness and depression. This is moving forward after having a hit wonder with their previous manga series, 'My Solo Exchange Diary' & 'My Lesbian Experience With Loneliness.' At this stage in their life, Kabi-San is still dealing with anxiety and fears that she chooses to resolve by drinking their problems away. Only to develop an acute pancreatitis and havingto deal with it for the rest of their life. Oddly enough, I find that all the more enjoyable being that I have a fatty liver, however it wasn't' caused by excessive alcoholic consumption. So this really stuck home with me because my doctor would constantly ask if I was a drinker or smoker, which I'm neither of. Anyhow, the artwork continues to improve and is why I love reading Kabi-San work, there's warm feeling about her art-style that I'm fond of. A welcoming sequel that readers of Kabi should read and see her rehabilitation through this part of her life.

I love this author. This is the second manga I've read from her and I don't regret it one bit. Being able to follow again another story of hers, is again a very good experience not only as a personal learning, but also very fruitful in general. It may be important to talk about something more serious first before continuing to write. I highly recommend this story for all types of teenagers in particular, who may consume alcohol to deal with their anxiety, I imagine that if you are in this situation, or even you who want to understand who is going through this, they cancome to understand this world around you and even yourself much better by reading these 13 chapters. I think one of the big questions that make not only this, but also "my lesbian experience with loneliness" being so good is without a doubt the author's honesty. Her ability to write down everything that happens to her, her thoughts, even what she finds most embarrassing, the situations, her fears, her happiness, her moments of relief, but without hiding the fact that she thinks that (there is a chapter which is her wondering if she would really publish a story that claims she is an alcoholic, claimed that she was afraid of other people's judgment and her low self-esteem doesn't help and her revealing that it adds a lot to the manga as a whole), show that she is an excellent, phenomenal , perfect autobiographical manga writer. After all, this is exactly what everyone seeks by reading biographies, we want to know the writer's thoughts, what he feels, how he feels about what he feels and even the fears he has for feeling it and Nagata, Kabi manages to pass them all these feelings masterfully. Her honesty not only makes the work a perfect biography, but also makes the stories much more relatable and realistic, in addition to adding a lot to the times that the author addresses themes in her life, such as low self-esteem, depression and addictions. Such an approach flows excellently well, containing thoughts that many who have been through this have already felt (I asked more people before writing, it's not just my opinion here, there were 14 "interviewed" and kind of everyone said at some point "I thought that already". Not to mention that everything is very "didactic" the message the author wants to convey is very clear, her thoughts collide with this message, everything in the story manages to fit perfectly into a single "lesson". I'm going to talk, after all I think it's up to a lot of personal interpretation. Finally, I reinforce what was said in the second paragraph, as well as "my lesbian experience with loneliness", "Genjitsu Touhi shitetara Boroboro ni Natta Hanashi" is undoubtedly a very important reading, besides presenting an absurd quality in its beautiful art. Grade: 9 (I didn't give 10 because another manga of hers is already in the top and in my view they kind of complement each other a lot).

My first experience with Nagata's autobiographical oeuvre and, despite the relatable means of self-medicating with alcohol, it's mostly a lackluster cautionary yarn about the too-obvious perils of alcoholism itself with not much else to speak of. It of course takes courage to be as vulnerable as she is throughout, however her transparency in this regard wears itself pretty thin given the singular through line at play and sparse creative wiggle room on either side of her rehabilitative stretch. There's no denying her uniqueness of artistic stylism though, which leads me to believe that I should've just started with either My Solo Exchange Diary or MyLesbian Experience with Loneliness. Oh well.
