Synopsis

Kabi Nagata's downward spiral is getting out of control, and she can't stop drinking to soothe the ache of reality. After suffering from unbearable stomach pains, she goes to a clinic, where she is diagnosed with pancreatitis—and is immediately hospitalized.

I love this author. This is the second manga I've read from her and I don't regret it one bit. Being able to follow again another story of hers, is again a very good experience not only as a personal learning, but also very fruitful in general.

It may be important to talk about something more serious first before continuing to write.

My first experience with Nagata's autobiographical oeuvre and, despite the relatable means of self-medicating with alcohol, it's mostly a lackluster cautionary yarn about the too-obvious perils of alcoholism itself with not much else to speak of. It of course takes courage to be as vulnerable as she is throughout, however her transparency in this regard wears itself pretty thin given the singular through line at play and sparse creative wiggle room on either side of her rehabilitative stretch. There's no denying her uniqueness of artistic stylism though, which leads me to believe that I should've just started with either My Solo Exchange Diary or My ...
