Superb review and article. I think you encapsulated much of your experience in taking the manga in and the article shows you were still 'digesting' it. That is a great way to give a review. You also bring up a great point about content creation today where algorithms dictate practices and as a small content creator on a major video platform; I often struggle because I don't want to use the same attention-grabbing/keeping tactics to methodize my content by. We have gotten to the point where Cliff Notes are now seen more important than the works they give information on and real fans or interested parties will stick around if the presenting personality is worth their time.
Thank you for sharing this article and your experience. I may never read the Manga but your experience of it is just as entertaining and thought provoking. O7
Thank you so much for the comment! I'm glad you were able to appreciate the essay.
I didn't want to go too deep into it here, since it probably warrants its own article, but I think this new age is fundamentally changing the way we engage with art and artists. It's a conundrum as an artist; is this just me adapting to the new nature of content or am I part of the problem? worth thinking about :)
