Goodbye, Eri by Tatsuki Fujimoto

3.0

It feels like a critique of the way people often idealize the dead, willfully ignoring their flaws simply because they're gone. This manga parallels real-life eulogies which tend to focus on the 'goodness' of the person they are mourning even if they were bad people. This is point is illustrated in the manga by Yuta potraying both his mother and Eri in a positive light despite them abusing and being a bitch to him respectively. Overall, the message of this book is clear, but the aftermath you have to sit with as a reader is complex and conflicting.
