Kare no Ondo

SPOILER: ..............................................expect an affair.................................. If you're not okay with it then you might not like this manga, but I feel that everyone saw it coming. It's not their fault in my opinion, and I can understand why it was hard to fight the urge to. Story: Just as mentioned, it's really straightforward. A girl who is physically abused by her father (ever since her mother left them). She's beat so much and often her bruises are somewhat permanent. She tries to hide them. She encounters a man studying to become a doctor who also has problems with his relationship. He sees her bruises and from there their relationshipbegins. They face obstacles with trying to be with each other and trying to forget each other. Art/Characters: is not my style. But nothings wrong with it. Both leads are weak in their own way, but together they find comfort. Some might comment saying he's the bad one having an affair and cheating, but you know what? That's totally expected when you aren't given the option to leave. Romance: It wasn't enough development for me. It's not my style for the female lead to be protected all the time. I question why he fell in love with her. Where do you draw the line between pity and feelings? But its enough I guess. I like to believe it was their first encounter being love at first sight. Overall I rate this manga a 7ish. Less then 7.5. It drags a little more than I would like. I do have to say I was satisfied with this manga. The characters really had to make decisions of their own for once. Being selfish is hard for some people. I enjoyed this manga because I can relate. Feeling like you've been living the way family wants you too, but you grow tired and finally have to make a selfish decision so you can finally be happy. Give this manga a shot. Worse thing that can happen is dropping it haha.
