Strange habits aside, this manga was a terrible decision on my part. It left me a blubbering mess, and, having just watched the anime adaption (and crying over that as well!), it will definitely be taking up the free real-estate where common sense should live in my head on my mind for a while. This manga has taught me a lot about self improvement! The courage touch society again! And most importantly, to love...! a b c d e "Kimi no Suizō o Tabetai Coming-of-Age Novel Gets Anime Film in 2018". Anime News Network. August 6, 2018 . Retrieved January 15, 2018.

The manga focuses on their differences of these 2 very different people by showing a lot of their interactions: a boy who has been isolated from society and has decided to submerge himself into the world of novels instead, and a girl who has had numerous friends and has spent happy memories with them throughout her life, but without showing her secret. An odd pair, I first thought. But I didn't think this novel would be so successful in presenting them together throughout the story. Sakura's friend, who always glares at Classmate-kun. She doesn't know about Sakura's disease even if she is her best friend. It's original and it's honest. I Want to Eat Your Pancreas will certainly tug at your heart strings. I did not cry at this one but it did make my heart swell to double its size. It's one of those books that you finish, put down, and then sit in silent reflection for a few minutes before you're able to move on.

This book doesn't cover up the fact, or say maybe it'll turn around, that our main heroine is going to pass away. But the amazing thing the book does is take you on a life, however short it is, to see how you can enjoy it. And it gives you a reason to question what life means to you, and the people around you. It hits every single emotional bit it is supposed to. Apart from that, this story also explores what relationships mean to us and how they define us, and what it truly means to be alive. How people impact us in the same way we impact them. The innate beauty in being able to recognize ourselves in others, as living, breathing human beings. For context, I think it needs to be mentioned that I don't cry over books that often. As a result, some weird part of me seeks out all the 'tear-jerker' media I can get my hands on to see if it 'works' on me. (Typing this out makes me seem like even more of a weirdo than I already am/have accepted I am. If you're concerned, don't worry, because I'm concerned too.)

a b Ressler, Karen (March 15, 2018). "Seven Seas Licenses I Want to Eat Your Pancreas Novel, Manga". Anime News Network . Retrieved March 15, 2018. I Want to Eat Your Pancreas seems like, at first, just another doomed romance. Boy meets terminally ill girl. Girl changes boy's worldview, or vice versa. Boy and girl fall in love. Girl passes away, leaving boy brokenhearted, but better for the time they shared. I Want to Eat Your Pancreas is one of my least favorite manga this year. However, regardless of my frustration with the protagonists, I liked the overall message of the story: You can enjoy life even if you have a terminal illness. Optimism is immensely difficult to achieve in this case, so cancer victims who learn to live with the idea of dying soon are inspiring in their own right. What made me like this even more is our bookworm male protagonist and Sakura's favorite book, which is one of my favorites too. 📚Really liked it, the art carrying a melancholic feel but also a bright atmosphere as well. Perfect for this kind of story. I hope the anime adaptation does just as well on that.
