My Gemini

This manga absolutely gutted me. I'm not one to be emotional, especially when reading, but after finishing this I ended up crying myself to sleep. A really bittersweet manga focusing on secrets, grief, and regret. I found this story to be really interesting. I've seen many stories have their own takes on twin characters, and usually they end up falling under a stereotypical personality type. However, My Gemini had a more unique and in-depth personality dynamic for both the siblings. They are much more than being each other's twin half. Both siblings have their own personalities, secrets, feelings, and relationships outside of each other. The bondwith each other as well is extremely in-depth and complex; displaying sibling love, admiration, and jealousy. I found how the story handled the mystery to be extremely well. I tend to find it easy to determine who is who in identical twin stories like this. However, this one really stumped me. Whenever I thought I was completely sure of myself, something else would happen to make me second guess myself. It is hard to figure out which is which when, even the siblings at times, have a hard time figuring out who they are in that moment. A really solid storyline with interesting characters and relationships. It finished strongly with an extremely bittersweet ending to suit the characters.
