it’s definitely something you need to be prepared to read。my broken mariko is a moving and emotional look into what it’s like to lose someone you love to suicide, to feel like you weren’t there for them when they really needed you, and to find a way to process that grief。 It is definitely not something you go into unprepared for the kind of emotions presented, but it will in the end leave you with a very bittersweet feeling。for a brief second, i thought this was a new piece by anno moyoco from t it’s definitely something you need to be prepared to read。my broken mariko is a moving and emotional look into what it’s like to lose someone you love to suicide, to feel like you weren’t there for them when they really needed you, and to find a way to process that grief。 It is definitely not something you go into unprepared for the kind of emotions presented, but it will in the end leave you with a very bittersweet feeling。for a brief second, i thought this was a new piece by anno moyoco from the cover art。 not sure why i thought that as waka hirako clearly has a distinct style。 the art was all over the place and cartoonish…and perfect。 while i can see those who read it expecting such serious topics to have serious, detailed, and smooth art - this art style added depth to the characters and, for me, improved everything about it。this was a heavily character-driven story and the characters were very well written。 mariko was realistically written as a victim of abuse。 tomoyo was realistically written as a friend who never knows what to do when seeing their friend suffering。 the pain and emotion on each page was real for each character presented。 。。。more

Raw and honest, it did well for a manga this short。

Zermeen

this absolutely broke me while i read it and it really captures the emotions and how raw they can be so well

Una historia cruda sobre la pérdida de alguien。 Está muy fuerte, pero me gusta la forma como está contado todo, con las emociones tan palpables de la protagonista (el duelo, sí, y dentro de él, la desesperación, la negación y mucho, mucho enojo)。 Los elementos cómicos me parecen necesarios cuando se tiene una historia que toca temas complicados (el abuso, el suicidio), aunque a ratos me cortaban las otras emociones que estaba experimentando。

Bello, intenso ed emozionante。 Mi ha provocato e fatto pensare a cosa io do importanza, a come uso il mio tempo e al fatto che anche solo un granello di bellezza è presente dappertutto。。。 Se questo era l'obbiettivo, con me ha fatto centro。 Anche i disegni mi sono piaciuti, particolari ma comunicativi。Unica pecca, forse, scorre/finisce un po' troppo in fretta, un capitolo in più sarebbe servito。 Bello, intenso ed emozionante。 Mi ha provocato e fatto pensare a cosa io do importanza, a come uso il mio tempo e al fatto che anche solo un granello di bellezza è presente dappertutto。。。 Se questo era l'obbiettivo, con me ha fatto centro。 Anche i disegni mi sono piaciuti, particolari ma comunicativi。Unica pecca, forse, scorre/finisce un po' troppo in fretta, un capitolo in più sarebbe servito。 。。。more

Enjoyed it, really good characters。 However, there was one chapter in the middle that I didn’t quite understand。 Also it ended on a bit of a weird note though, it felt unfinished。 I hope the artist comes out with another volume。

Great art and the story was very compelling。 A one-shot that handles suicide, abuse and being left behind。 It's a sad story that really left a mark on me。 Sure, it's been done before, but the art style makes it worth it。 (The second story was a bit unnecessary and just decent。) Great art and the story was very compelling。 A one-shot that handles suicide, abuse and being left behind。 It's a sad story that really left a mark on me。 Sure, it's been done before, but the art style makes it worth it。 (The second story was a bit unnecessary and just decent。) 。。。more

Mi è piaciuto? Sì。 Indubbiamente。 Mi è piaciuto tanto? Forse no。 Voglio dire, non mi aspetto che partecipare alla perdita di una persona cara ad altri possa essere PIACEVOLE, nè che possa essere intenso quanto la perdita di persone care a me; trovo perfino ingiusto chi se la prenda con questo titolo perché non gli ha fatto davvero sentire le stesse emozioni provate dalla protagonista。 Qui la differenza la fa la percezione del singolo e io ne ho apprezzato la lettura dalla prima all'ultima pagina Mi è piaciuto?

My broken Mariko est un one-shot bouleversant, d’une justesse rare dans le traitement des émotions。 C’est une histoire de deuil et d’amour-amitié superbe, intense et puissante qui nous prend aux tripes autant par les mots que par les dessins。 Par contre, prévoyez les mouchoirs parce que vous allez ne pas en sortir indemne。Critique complète sur yuyine。be!

Please do your research on the trigger warnings。 Overall great I wish it was longer。 I also cried a lot :)

Lolwa

I personally loved this book so much and I related to Shiinoo a lot。 If I ever get the news that a friend had passed I will most certainly react the same way Shiinoo did。I cried a lot while reading this (I read it in one setting less than 40 mins)。The side story didn’t make me cry as I was still thinking about Shiinoo and Mariko so I might have to re read it again :)

A beautifully illustrated but solemn read about Tomoyo trying to fulfil her lifelong friend, Mariko's, final wishes。 Throughout the story she fears about destroying all of their beautiful memories with the darker parts of their lives。 Hirako's characters are so lively and the author does an excellent job of conveying such a range of emotions throughout the story。 In addition, the backgrounds and paneling kept me wanting to read more!I thoroughly enjoyed this short story and the one shot at the e A beautifully illustrated but solemn read about Tomoyo trying to fulfil her lifelong friend, Mariko's, final wishes。 Throughout the story she fears about destroying all of their beautiful memories with the darker parts of their lives。 Hirako's characters are so lively and the author does an excellent job of conveying such a range of emotions throughout the story。 In addition, the backgrounds and paneling kept me wanting to read more!I thoroughly enjoyed this short story and the one shot at the end! 。。。more

Powerful yet brief story of grief, deep connections, strife and regret。 The ending felt a bit unfinished, but overall I was moved by the portrayal of losing a dear friend unexpectedly。 The emotions felt very palpable。

This hurt like hell

Valerie Birtell

This is a very heartbreaking one-shot。 It deals with suicide and abuse so please read with caution。 The final chapter ends in a way where we get a separate mini-story rather than a continuation of a major plot twist at the end。 Although, if this plot twist was written in further detail this story would be double as painful。 I recommend this manga but please do read with caution。

A quick, tough read that explores abuse, survivor's guilt, and a range of other emotions that occur when someone close commits suicide。 Having experienced this myself with a close friend, watching Shiino go through the cycle of grief was like viewing a memory through a murky lens。 My only complaint is that it felt so short。 A quick, tough read that explores abuse, survivor's guilt, and a range of other emotions that occur when someone close commits suicide。 Having experienced this myself with a close friend, watching Shiino go through the cycle of grief was like viewing a memory through a murky lens。 My only complaint is that it felt so short。 。。。more

You can't really "enjoy" these mangas/graphic novels。 But you can most definitely feel them。 The anger, the depression, the rage and mostly the grief。 I don't have any other words, I just really want to hug the author and have a beer with her。 You can't really "enjoy" these mangas/graphic novels。 But you can most definitely feel them。 The anger, the depression, the rage and mostly the grief。 I don't have any other words, I just really want to hug the author and have a beer with her。 。。。more

1) I hate the smoking cliche 2) I don’t think really does anything for mental health 3) protagonist is annoying 4) why the random western? I don’t care for westerns so I just browsed through it。 I just think this was pretty but lacked story, a character, making sense。

Content warnings for this book: suicide, self harm, physical and sexual abuse, incest。Now, despite all that, my only complaint about My Broken Mariko is that it wasn’t long enough。 I wanted to see more of Tomoyo’s journey with Mariko’s ashes, to see how she would cope with suddenly losing her best friend and the only person she has in her life。 I’m by no means disappointed by the ending- it was absolutely stunning- I simply loved it so much that I wanted more。 If you like Asano Inios work, I thi Content warnings for this book: suicide, self harm, physical and sexual abuse, incest。Now, despite all that, my only complaint about My Broken Mariko is that it wasn’t long enough。 I wanted to see more of Tomoyo’s journey with Mariko’s ashes, to see how she would cope with suddenly losing her best friend and the only person she has in her life。 I’m by no means disappointed by the ending- it was absolutely stunning- I simply loved it so much that I wanted more。 If you like Asano Inios work, I think you’ll like My Broken Mariko。Oh, there’s also a weird short story at the end of the book; I don’t really know why it’s there, and find it an odd choice to include。 The tonal change is jarring。 。。。more
