Quirky Cat
Summary:
Hikari hasn’t experienced love for herself or ever really craved that. Instead, she’s become addicted to shipping her friend, Mari, and a cute guy in class. It started out as a fun way to pass the time and was harmless. After all, she was merely rooting for her shy and pretty friend.
But then Hikari started confusing the events in her mind with reality, and things began to get a bit messy. This change was but the first step into chaos and confusion, forcing Hikari to rethink what she wanted.
Review:
I See Your Face, Turned Away Vol. 1 is a funny and sweet story worth checking out. It’s also not the most memorable story out there, so dive in, enjoy it, and move on.
This tale has some classic elements, including Hikari’s shipping of friends and her confused feelings. It makes for a solid story. It might have been better if it delved a little deeper. Hey! Who knows, maybe that will happen in later volumes?
Things to note: The pacing is a bit on the slower side, which may result in readers struggling to stay invested. Meanwhile, the artwork is entertaining and sweet. It’s perfect for the story, and I would happily read something else by this author for the artwork alone!
