After reading Frieren at the Funeral, I was looking for manga with a similar tone. This manga, while not easy to digest and sad at some parts, is very heart warming in its own way. The kind of burden that Nina must be living with, I can't even imagine. What a wonderful story.

Yeah, it's going to take some time with how blurry your vision is probably going to be, but it's worth it.

The art and the idea great, but the first three quarters of the one shot could've been cut in half.
