The Beatles made a 11 minute version of Helter Skelter.  Really matches the mood of some of these chapters.

Ummm........just curious, are you being serious here? I only ask because Helter Skelter was one of the heaviest, most driving hard-rock songs the Beatles ever recorded, and the synopsis for this story seems to hinge on the phrase "a light-hearted story" and the Slice Of Life genre tag...........that seems to be kind of a contradiction. 

 

Just curious, tell me if I'm seeing something wrong, I have to say the phrase "like the 11 minute version of Helter Skelter" certainly has me interested.    :)

But to say that this light-hearted story and Slice of Life is much the same as saying that the Old Man and the Sea is a story about a man catching a fish.

Hmmm....I see. Well I'll have to give it a try then, it wouldn't be the first title I didn't think the synopsis gave an entirely fair shake to the actual story.  :)

Well as dystopian futures go, it has a very light touch.   :)

 

There have been a couple of chapters that have tempted me to add a shoujo ai tag.  *smile*  The story is so sparse that it makes the events and feelings that do appear really stand out.

 

Although the setting is after massive depopulation and sea level rise, the tone and art aren't so different from Kotonoba Drive.
