From the title alone, you'd think that this would be some ridiculous lighthearted comedic manga. However, due to the mangaka's previous works, I expected that this one-shot would have its dark undertones. Thus, I was pulled into reading it. (Minor Spoilers below) As it unfolds, you come to realize that this is a story of trauma, grief, self-destructive coping mechanisms, and the harshness of reality where people judge yet fail to understand or even help at all. Sometimes all it takes is one person to take notice and do something about it, and I think that's what the mangaka wished to portray to us through this one-shot.I enjoyed the message of the story and I hope we all try our best to reach out to those who might be going through a tough time.
Part-timer Leo has fallen head-over-heels for sex bomb Angelina Jolie, and is saving up to visit America so he can meet her...and kiss her?! What could be behind these passionate feelings of his? (Source: MangaDex)
Such a dumb premise, I imagine a world where this was my intro to the author, what a moment it would've been. This author's line of work centers around tragedy through the eyes of innocence. A boy, living through a horrible situation, with only one thought, to kiss Angelina Jolie. In essence, this story was a little pocket of tragedy, sprinkled with how such innocence is peeled down to reveal the actual themes of the story. Trauma, something scary for all of us, something you can't escape with anything. A coping mechanism is to simply eliminate thoughts and silent moments, to not allow anything otherthan a goal. Without spoilers, this story is in reality an amazing ride of letting go and accepting life as it is. I loved this one-shot to bits, and it'll be one I recommend to anybody I can. In terms of technical aspects, art is always great, story 10/10, and characters are great. Overall, I enjoyed this one a lot.
