I loved this so much. It was cute and charming. Matt Bagguley did a great job translating it. I could relate to Tuva so much. Being that age is hard, growing up is difficult. Nora Dåsnes really captured the being stuck in the middle feeling so well. The art and the typography is fantastic at conveying feeling. Only reason it wasn't a full 5 stars was because the ending was so short. The resolve was short lived and I wish we got a little more out of it. But I enjoyed nonetheless.
