a bittersweet romance
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
I want to register a different opinion on this manga than the reviewer below. Not only did I like Ms. Sakurazawa's art style a lot, but I liked her storytelling style. It's very lyrical and oblique, which seems to be the other reviewer's complaint, but I find it to be a great strength. One is left to read between the lines a lot, to hear the unspoken. It's very romantic and bittersweet. I don't typically like manga in this genre; I'm normally more of a sci-fi or horror manga enthusiast. Nevertheless, I found Between the Sheets to be enchanting and emotionally compelling--the sense of melancholy and longing is overpowering. Highly recommended.
