Unhealthy Romance Done Right: A Case Study

It's been over half a year (and for some of you, less than a week) hello!! These two have been a longstanding part of my teen years and I could not help but write a 16 page script on how they have thoroughly rotted my brain. They truly are an excellently-done unhealthy relationship and I really wanted to explore how dark stories in fiction (like theirs) can be a wild, cathartic ride! I've worked on this video in-between nursing school and it's been a fun, rewarding, and challenging experience! I'm nervous about posting it because being misinterpreted by others is a HUGE fear of mine, but I really wanted to try and share this even with those fears. Please read the manga on Manga Up! (https://global.manga-up.com/manga/132) or by buying copies/borrowing from your library. Toilet-bound Hanako-kun is a blast of a manga! I'm honestly considering a follow-up video on some of the extra content these two have and other characters in the series (Cafe events for TBHK have alternate universes!! Plus what Hakubo does to cope with Sumire not being there by literally reliving his trauma is wild). But it all depends!! Alien stage and some other series have caught my eye for a while (plus my own characters), so we'll see.
