The Amazing Alice Wong

I'm gonna need a spoiler-summary.

Noah is a girl? And freaked out because she discovered she had a crush on another girl?
 
This was really nice, a quick tale about trauma and denial taking heavy inspiration from the movie “A Ghost Story”, the art and writing are surprisingly polished and I’m impressed such a heavily westernized story came from a japanese artist.

I also really like how the leprechaun in clearly just an Irish Prosciutto from Vento Aureo
 
This is possibly one of the most intensely American mangas I have ever read, though not in a bad way at all. I mean, I don't mean it speaks to America at large—heck, more time is spent on Celtic folklore than on the setting—but mostly that, I cannot for a moment imagine that the author hasn't lived here.
 
While I like the whole Midwest Gothic feel to this, the pacing is weird. I liked the story, but it feels like it spent half the pages just setting up, and rushed to the finish line.
