What series was this?
I'm intrigued.
I trust in R07's character analysis and writing to undertake such a theme realistically but after a personal experience dealing with such a thing I'd like to see the context here.
Not that a writer I admire's works could shed light on my own experiences but the conviction with which he writes strikes a chord of truth within me that I've only found in one other author, Osamu Dazai. In saying that, Ryukishi's works are the antithesis to Dazai's. The silver lining in the pain another has found in the world. His relentless hope and trust he puts into others by past mistakes of his character's and his own are a shockingly empowering thing to behold.
I can tell I'm reading far too much into this, but any input would be appreciated. Art is subjective, after all. But I can't help but feel that we are all drawn together by this single man's optimism and that inspires me.
I want to know about this work specifically because I can relate to it. And Google image search is getting me no-where.
