ty so much for this comment, I can totally feel you. this work is excellent and people generally don't get the real beauty in it.
Seriously! It's a pity we won't get to see more of this beautiful work or more work from this mangaka. I hope they're resting in peace. Also is it just me or am I the only one that gets super strong vibes that this story wasn't 100% supernatural??? I feel like the horns also represented trauma and other emotions and feelings the MC had. And when they fell off like a dear shedding it's antlers after the climax of the story and then the big plot twist at the end I could talk and theorize for hours.
yeah, I just found out they're passed away a couple of years ago. it broke my heart :( hope their and their family are in peace. now, about the story... OMG, 100% YES! the moment the horns fell off I was screaming internally like crazy! it was such a powerful allegory for all the traumas and/or strong emotions the MC had. and yes, the plot twist got me like- can't even explain! I needed more
Gave me depression. /j For those saying it's unique, you are right. For those talking shit, shut up. I've read more manga for longer than you probably have been alive and able to read. It's really cool. The author made a fantastic story. Have I seen it before? Yes. Do I think the author portrayed the characters, their insecurities, their dark sides and the conflict very well? YES. It was an incredible read. Don't hesitate to read it. I would read a whole novel about this. Even longer. The art style was beautiful. I loved the use of metaphors and you have to be properly reading everything and thinking about the story while you read this manga to actually get some of it.
