Thank you, NetGalley, for the opportunity to read I Want to Love You Till Your Dying Day 1 by Nachi Aono.
This dark yuri manga took me by surprise with how twisted and intense its world is. Sheena is a cautious and anxious warrior. While, Mimi is cheerful and carefree, fearlessly diving into battle. When Sheena is injured one day, Mimi takes it upon herself to heal her, sparking the beginning of their deepening bond. I'm excited to see how their relationship evolves as they face the challenges of both love and war.

Thank you to NetGalley and Kodansha Comics for an early release copy of I Want To Love You Till Your Dying Day by Nachi Aono.
I Want To Love You Till Your Dying Day has an interesting premise, I liked the art style, the characters, and the story. These magical children and the war aspects were interesting elements to read about however there was some stuff questionable stuff in this manga. The “Healing” aspect of the book could have been worked a little differently, it was a little uncomfortable to read those scenes when knowing how young these characters are not to mention the adults are partaking in these “healing” magics too.
Mimi and Sheena are both decent characters, I liked Mimi and her story elements. The war, battle, and her abilities are interesting to read. I feel that I needed a bit more from Sheena to really enjoy her as a character. I don’t know if I would continue this series or not, I hope the romance doesn’t blossom until the characters are older more 15-17, I feel the healing element would be more acceptable between the students if they were aged a little more appropriately. (This is around the age that young adult romances are)

Thank you NetGalley for the EARC. I was very surprised by this manga. I went in blind and didn’t even read this synopsis. I enjoy dark fantasy, and it seems like It will be very dark. I like the complex nature between the two main characters, how one is often going to battle, and the other is training for battle, and how their perspectives about the war differ, affecting how they see each other and interact. Sheena is slowly waking up to the realities of war against their ideologies. Mimi and Sheena are both young, but this reality has been placed on them since birth. I want to see how the Sheena pushes Mimi and how Mimi pushes the Sheena. I like the concept of a training school for magic users and a mysterious war. Themes of death and love. Excited for this release and volume 2.

Yuri de fantasy avec pour toile de fond une guerre et des enfants soldats. I Want to Love You Till Your Dying Day est bientôt adapté en anime par le studio ROLL2. J'avais très envie de découvrir ce manga.
Ce titre choc attire tout de suite l'attention. Les thèmes sont sombres malgré une couverture pétillante et Mimi qui est très positive et naïve dans ses interactions.
L'univers et l'histoire sont intrigants, surtout la fin du tome qui donne vraiment envie de continuer. On en sait assez peu sur l'extérieur de l'école, Sheena ne sortant pas ; mais Mimi laisse penser qu'on verra bientôt ce qui se déroule en dehors de l'établissement (et ça s'annonce prenant et sanglant !). le manga a du potentiel.
J'ai bien aimé ces prémisses, le seul bémol, c'est l'infirmière adulte qui prend plaisir à soigner ses élèves adolescentes en les embrassant (même si c'est le "concept" de la magie de soin, c'est déplacé).

This was a foray out of my comfort zone, since I mostly avoid moe art styles, especially in yuri. However, I was pleasantly surprised at how compelling the worldbuilding and plot are. Manga that feature children as warriors in an SFF dystopia will always be morbidly addicting. I found the side characters more interesting than the main ones in this volume, but I imagine that may change as the narrative advances! I was also genuinely glad to see that it’s not really very service-oriented (of course, you expect and then do find some gothic elements!), even though the budding romance is a bit fast paced, depending on how you look at it. Solid 4.5⭐️!
