Review: I Want to Eat Your Pancreas
Tumblr media
Original title: Kimi no Suizō o Tabetai
Author: Yoru Sumino
Illustrator: Idumi Kirihara

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
________________________________________________________
I remember how the "I Want to Eat Your Pancreas" anime and manga were trending when I was in high school because the movie just came out (2018.). There were so many positive reviews, but the most memorable comments were about how sad the story was. So much so that a lot of people cried their eyes out during the film. Still, I never got a chance to read it or watch it until a few weeks ago, when my boyfriend bought the manga.
First and foremost, "I Want to Eat Your Pancreas" is about a teenage girl, Sakura Yamauchi, who is suffering from a severe pancreatic disease. One day, a highly introverted boy from her class accidentally finds out about her illness, so she takes her chance and decides to befriend him. Since he is the only other person besides her family who knows she's sick, she finds his company comforting. While they are seemingly polar opposites - she is a bubbly extrovert and he is a reserved loner, their relationship still manages to slowly develop over time.
Sakura is a very bright and energetic girl who doesn't stray away from social situations. Her personality might be a little bothersome and unrealistic at first, but her radiant attitude quickly becomes charming and lovable. Because she is so cheerful, she makes the reader forget how sick she really is. Her happiness sometimes gets cut off with a gut-wrenching panel which draws light to her poor health and unavoidable death, reminding the reader that she is just a scared little girl.
The author plays a lot with concealing the main character's name, making the other characters call him by the title of how they view him. For an example, depressing-kun. Depending on which character addresses him, the titles can get rude, mean or insulting. Even Sakura doesn't call him by his real name, even though he tells it to her at the beginning of the story. This play with names and titles is truly an ingenious tool which the author uses to set up the main character's development and personality, as well as the change he goes through as the story progresses.
While the story is often described as a bittersweet romance (even on the back of the book), I wouldn't necessarily categorize it as such. The relationship between Sakura and the boy often drifts between platonic and romantic feelings because of the intense, sincere love they experience for one another. Neither one of them knows how to process such strong emotions, but they know their bond is anything but ordinary. Even their classmates become convinced they have started dating and only refuse to admit it.
But as the story progresses, both of them realize they don't have to appease to the societal pressure to be together. Their closeness originated because they needed a friend, not because they were romantically interested in one another. And while Sakura does sometimes tease the boy and seems to be truly attracted to him, her actions are often guided by the fear she might miss out on the joys of a normal teenage life, not because she truly wants to be with him.
Moreover, the author often points out that life is about experiencing it with other people and finding your place in the community. A person cannot survive on their own, but they also do not have to appease to every single need from society. Romantic love is only secondary to the primal human need of just being seen, held and heard. This is what Sakura and the boy both learn from each other and why their relationship works.
Therefore, I consider "I Want to Eat Your Pancreas" as an ode to friendship, one which sprouted between two completely different people and which developed because they both needed each other.
The storytelling is incredible and perfectly rounded. The ending is foreshadowed, so it is not entirely unpredictable, but still shocking because of the plot-twist. The feeling of emptiness when Sakura dies is portrayed so well. Her personality had always been so loud and suddenly the panels seem so quiet after she's gone. The last few chapters are extremely emotional, to say the least. Both the author and the illustrator perfectly conveyed the feelings of all the characters, so it is not difficult to get entirely engulfed in them.
"I Want to Eat Your Pancreas" could definitely be considered a classic according to its popularity, influence and overall delivery. It offers stunning visuals, beautiful storytelling, cute characters and a satisfying, but somber ending. I absolutely recommend it, even to people who might usually not be into manga or anime.

Reluctant Reader Wednesday: I Want to Eat Your Pancreas: The Complete Manga Collection by Yoru Sumino & Idumi Kirihara 
A shy boy discovers his popular classmate’s secret -- she has a terminal illness, and she won’t be alive for much longer. She is relieved to have someone she can talk to about this, because nobody else knows she’s sick except her parents. Their relationship confuses and even angers other people. Why does this boy get to spend time with Yamauchi, and what could she possibly see in him? This manga explores the unusual relationship between these two students, and how both of their lives change from knowing each other.
Give this book to teens and adults who enjoy reading manga, sicklit, and stories about unusual friendships.

Hi, I thought that this would be a good time since everyone is off from school or quarantined I would make a list of some good books and anime and movies to help bide the time until everything is good again. also, I know animal crossing just came out so people will be playing that but I know some people can’t afford the game or even want to play it so.

those are only a handful of movies I have to recommend. some can be found on Netflix or Hulu but if anyone wants to know where to watch some of the others then send a message and let me know and I will help out. now from the anime. most of the anime I am recommending is mainstream but not all of them and most can be found on Netflix and Hulu. This is because I cannot afford other means to watch anime and the last time I watched anime on kiss anime my computer got a virus. also, a lot of the anime that I get recommended is mainstream. My cousin watches as well so I tend to watch with them a lot. I try and watch other anime as well but just because someone considers an anime mainstream doesn't mean it is bad.
anime: kill la kill, children of the whales, Durarara!!, sword art online (the Japanese version), Gurren Lagann, Jojo's bizarre adventure, haikyu!!, blue exorcist, full metal alchemist brotherhood, cells at work, death note, Ouran highschool host club, the disastrous life of Saiki k., one punch man, black butler, aggretsuko, neon genesis Evangelion, devilman crybaby, anohana, beastars, carol and Tuesday, rilakkuma and Kaoru (I know this isn’t anime), the devil is a part-timer, amagi brilliant park, black butler: book of circus, blue exorcist Kyoto saga, danganronpa: the animation, demon slayer, Durarara!!x2, fire force, future diary, high school of the dead, school live, love live, monster Musume, my hero academia, the promised neverland, sailor moon, sailor moon crystal, seraph of the end, terror in resonance, tiger and bunny, double decker Doug and Kirill, Tokyo Ghoul, Tokyo magnitude 8.0, another, and yona of the dawn, robihachi
once again these are only a handful and most can be found on either hulu or netflix. now for the books, I will split the books into two categories. manga and novels. so here they are.

these are all of my recommendations for a fun coronacation. also, please take all of the necessary safety and sanitary precautions and stay safe. while I do support a lot of things that normal Christians don’t I am one and am praying for everyone’s safety. even if you don’t believe in God that is ok. I respect your beliefs and you have every right to not believe. No matter what I am keeping everyone in my thoughts and prayers. please stay safe and clean everyone.
p.s. keep the carona memes coming!

Happy Monday!
This week I’ll Be Reading:
The Complete Sherlock Holmes Volume 1 by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
Our Dreams At Dusk Volume 1 by Yuhki Kamatani
and Cinder by Marissa Meyer
And I Finished:
Attack on Titan Volume 28 by Hajime Isayama
Whispered Words Volume 3 by Takashi Ikeda
Secretly, I’ve Been Suffering About Being Sexless, by Togame
Love Stage!! Volume 4 by Eiki Eiki and Taishi Zaou
Candy Color Paradox Volume 2 by Isaku Natsume
Kakegurui Twin Volume 3 by Homura Kawamoto and Kei Saiki
I Want to Eat Your Pancreas: The Complete Manga Collection by Yoru Sumino and Idumi Kirihara
and Kase-san and Bento (Kase-san and... Volume 2) by Hiromi Takashima
Hello and Happy November!
@books-take-flight and I had to postpone finishing Cinder because I had a Halloween party that was taking up a lot of my time, but I ended up reading a lot of manga, especially after Halloween (I’m sorry!!). So we plan on finishing it this week. And I also hope to read Our Dreams at Dusk, it’s caught my eye for a while now and I’m really excited to see how it turns out.
I got to read a lot of manga this week, but a couple of my favorites were I Want to Eat Your Pancreas, Candy Color Paradox, and Kase-san.
I have FINALLY got to read I Want to Eat Your Pancreas! It was SO sad and I already want to reread it! Sakura and our main character are such an inspiring duo as she learns to live with her fatal pancreatic disease.
Candy Color Paradox is a quick, addicting read. The characters’ polar opposite personalities are not only incredibly entertaining, but they help give the characters depth and give the reader a story easy to immerse themselves in.
And I’m more than stoked to be able to get further in Kase-san! I was worried that, since I had a long break between reading volumes 1 & 2, it wouldn’t hold up to my high opinion of it, but seeing Kase-san and Yamada fall in love is still one of the sweetest stories I’ve read! I can’t wait to read more of this sugar sweet romance!
That about wraps it up this week, happy reading!

July Favorites
I’m not the biggest fan of summer. It’s been in the 90s here for weeks, and Sev and I have mostly holed up in either her bedroom or mine, the only places in the apartment with window unit air conditioners. I’m looking forward to the end of July, and the end of August, if I’m being completely honest. The heat makes me lethargic and grumpy, feelings that are compounded by this whole coronavirus…
