Pain all I feel is pain. God of Children is a manga about a young boy Makoto and Yukari and their unconventional childhood romance. It's unconventional because Yukari is a Goddess of the local shrine. If you know anything about Shinto and Japanese religion (if you can call it a religion) then you've probably been exposed to these ageless Gods in control of shrines across Japan. In this particular case only young children and animals can see these ghosts (which is a common trope across various cultures and in literature). The boy goes through trial after trial with his friends and the girl eventually withsome hostility and a love story sprouts out after a while. This one-shot has some very particular interest in photography with some of the coolest pictures being shown at the end of the one-shot and the depressing ending which you've probably guessed by now but goddang (ha get it cause she's a- yk what nvm) it, I feel dolorous. Photos play a big part in this manga and honestly they look great, you can tell the author spent a long time making this one-shot look good. If I can knock it for one thing it would be the whole "oh I want to be a child forever" cliche which I did not enjoy.
