Is the plot/story wrapped up decently where it ends, or does it leave you hanging?
The body of the girl in the cover looks like a sausage.

How far in?
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I knew I recognized this from a long time ago. It was good then and it's good now.
The manga was axed, apparently.
Thank you, bro! We will revive this manga soon. Our translator is working on it.
Such beautiful art T.T
So I instantly noticed that it was the artist of tough drawing this.. lol. Somehow one of the main characters (Jo) reminds me of Kibo's grandpa when he's smiling...
Huh. I like it. Don't feel one of my pocket reviews happening, but I like it. I will say I don't find it as intimidating or inaccessible as you'd expect for something like this.
4th chapter is so moving, She has to work hard to do her art! And it makes me respect the male Mc more.
... because of a Disney movie? Lilo's not even a native Hawaiian name.
It`s awsome, I like this seriousness about life, essence and art.
And i wonder about this artist, this masculine bodies seam so old stile or is it just a preference of an artist?
When was this manga relesed?
Thanks for upload Mangalism !
Lilo sound hawaiian. I wonder if she's half-Hawaiian or something.
Wow, though the name Yutou Riro is for a girl, I've nearly mistaken it for Yuki Rito.
Sorry about that. We've fixed it. Thanks.
This latest chapter hasn't been fully translated. Either the wrong files were uploaded, or the translation isn't complete and someone prematurely uploaded it.
Oh man, the fourth chapter brings a bit of the setting into play and develops some of Jou's back story. Once again, it has some epic artwork and some really interesting characters and stories. I think you guys'll like it when we finish the release and I certainly did my utmost to once again give you a good translation. Here's hoping that you like where it's going

P.S.
I was stuck between calling him Joe or Jou; I settled on Jou because his name is clearly of Japanese origin. They sound the same. Lilo, on the other hand, is definitely the author's intent. He wanted a unique name for a unique character.
If I recall correctly, Lilo's last name, Yutou (need my eyes checked; I messed up う and り in the transliteration) roughly means 'severe winter', with the alternative interpretation as 'intentional winter'. Jou's name roughly means 'the sky's only gust' All the characters so far have names relating to their temperament/backstory
Wow, this mangaka, his art is awesome. He is very good with every detail, and very realistic, yet he is able to use so much emotion and symbolism and imagery to convey the deep inner feelings and emotions of his characters. Awesome.
SO you just going to talk to her as if you didn't fuck up her life
The art of this comic is good, and when its a comic about good art, it wouldn't have really worked otherwise.
whoah... that's some deep $*** goin on there..
*thumbs up to the story and art... its a different experience..
Whenever I read a good comic, I always find myself having to write a comment. I guess its to leave a mark not sure, anyways This was amazing!! I really enjoyed it, the art is fantastic and the plot seems to be going in a good direction definitely deserves a follow.
Pretty good. Easy to follow and may go far. NJ translating
