"Is it ever too late to go back to your first love?"
Pink Candy Kiss is one of my favourite mangas ongoing right now. The story doesn't shy away from how messy and complicated this type of reconciliation and how it can hurt people around them. Especially from Ema's friend, Kanon, who constantly does remind her that these feelings exist, but understand how those feelings impact more than just you. It helps knowing that the reminders of their obstacles, their circumstances, the reality of what their desires are continued to be in the forefront.
They know this isn't right.
And yet, it balances the topic

I think the way this manga set up the nuances of first loves, whether to let go or to keep going with the present, who loves you and who will love you, and everything in between was wonderfully done.

I am excited to see where the rest of this series goes but as it currently sits, I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys a more messy, toxic dynamic between their main couple.

I cannot begin to express how discombobulating and pointless this way.
Joy was the true villian of the story. Girl wanted to have her cake and eat it in bed with Hye-Yeon. She knew she had to choose one of them, neither Namsu nor Hye-Yeon wanted to be in a poly relationship nor wanted to share Joy. But guess what!! Joy said fuck all that. What's extra annoying is you don't find out that she basically decided to keep both until closer to the end AFTER we find out that she slept with Hye-Yeon. Half of the time you did not know what was going on. ... |
