5.0
Divided into four sections or "reincarnations" that get progressively more beautiful and joyful even as Ritvo slowly progresses further toward his death. One or two lines feel cringey (fuck you fellow millennials, I'm sorry the high schooler with a members only jacket was mean to you once but cool and cringe are both real qualities you sometimes have to confront) but overall this is sublime.
Graphic: Grief and Cancer
Moderate: Terminal illness and Animal death
