I didn't really want this to be my first anime review, but I somehow had a hidden urge to write this.

I hated this anime. with a firey burning passion in the first 4 episodes.
Mainly because that sister (sort of-ish) rape scene disturbed the hell out of me and pretty much spoiled the entire anime for me.

The it was if the anime suddenly found out it deeply offended me after a few episodes and suddenly made direct anime refrences to all of my favorite animes. (as opposed to all those other anime refrence-ing animes, to which I couldn't make heads or tails of.) They made refrence to Rozen Maiden, Sailor Moon, Haruhi, Fruits Basket, Sayonara Zestobu Sensei, all of my beloved animes.

As the story progresses, I got less and less creeped out by that creepy rape-ish sister complex because I

A. brushed it off as fanservice
B. saw that she just has an-overbearing sisterly love, and later it shows that they are sisterly friends and doesn't do it on a regular basis.
C. She probably did it for the lulz.

So if you hate the anime with a passion like I did, give it time. read more

I have to admit, I've only just started reading this manga, and this is my first review.

A manga like this, with such a taboo plot, doesn't usually hit this close to home. Not to me, but with my very dear childhood friend. This is captured perfectly, the step-father's attempts, the mother thinking the child is lying, then when the mother was backed into a corner, she had no choice but to kick him out and beg for forgiveness.

Some of us have gone through things that happened in this manga, some can relate on another level, (for me it's the fear of men I have because I knew a molester like a neighboor, and my friend's brave struggles.) or just you want to see things from a new point of view.

This stories struggles with a strong and brave heroine, who faces her fears every day no matter what, and the people who grow to care about her.
This is a truly amazing manga. read more
