The art is a bit sparse, but it's whimsical and emotive. This exceeded my expectations (not a weird pervy series or simple tale) by managing weave a story with the tone and moral/ethical ambiguity of a cautionary fairy tale that is also infused with hope and humor along with the darkness.

Complete opposite vibes to The Girl From the Other Side. Although it’s clear that Asahi is meant to be more of a child taken care of by the dragon god, the way it’s a bit ambiguous freaks me out. Could be a good wholesome read or could be utterly disgusting and there’s no way of knowing without reading more, and I don’t have it in me to keep going. 

I'm getting weird adult/minor vibes and it's not even like she's 17 dating an immortal, she's 12.
