A small pool of images and words holds a sea of feelings and emotions. This describes what "Kimi no Yoru ni Fureru" is. Two people dealing with their internal conflicts find refuge and comfort in each other. The narrative deeply explores the introspection of each character, with every interaction full of emotions that soothe their emotional and psychological wounds. I like how the external conflicts are not the main focus, but rather their impact on the characters. The author lavishes poetry in every action, which is present even in moments of physical interaction. These are not merely moments of lust but bring a semiotic of deep connection,both physical and emotional. In a few pages, captivating characters are presented, each with their human complexity, imperfect and flawed, but perfectly fitting together.

Synopsis

Chinatsu and his older brother, Fuyuki, have been trained by their father to become professional assassins for their whole lives. However, Fuyuki is slain as a result of Chinatsu failing at his first job. Chinatsu is discovered by a blind boy who lends him a shoulder to cry on. The trauma still haunts Chinatsu five years later, and he is unable to kill any of his targets as a result. While waiting around the streets, he recovers a stolen object owned by Kasumi, the blind boy he had met back then. As a token of gratitude, Kasumi invites the assassin to his home that is located in a traditional Japanese inn. Chinatsu learns that the boy sees himself as a burden to his family due to his disability. Despite being complete strangers, Kasumi feels a connection with Chinatsu and asks him to be his friend, to which the assassin readily agrees. But Chinatsu discovers more from being around Kasumi's kindhearted nature, and he realizes he may have found a way through the darkness of his life: a light worth protecting amidst the abyss.

The story shows how, despite all their differences, the two protagonists are still very similar to each other, not because of their pasts, but because of their experiences. This work warmed my heart on this rainy day, with a smooth narrative where all the characters are absolutely well written and have development in only 6 chapters. Not to mention the art, which, my God, is splendid. I like how even the intimate scenes are portrayed as an emotional connection and not simply touching... I also like the play of colors that the author-san uses with the characters. Original - A história mostra como apesar de todas suas diferenças,os dois protagonistas ainda são muito parecidos um com o outro, não pelos seus passados, mas pelas experiências. Essa obra deixou meu coração quentinho nesse dia chuvoso, com uma narrativa suave onde todos os personagens são absolutamente bem escritos e tem desenvolvimento em somente 6 capítulos. Sem falar da arte, que meu Deus do céu, é esplêndida. Gosto de como até mesmo as cenas de intimidade são retratadas como conexão emocional e não simplesmente toque... Também gosto do jogo de cores que o autor-san faz com os personagens.
