Life Chapter 80 Discussion

Really bad manga. Forced melodrama throughout the entire thing. Manga was way too hyperbolic for me. Not to mention that the friendships that Ayumu develops with Miki and Sonoda just kind of happened so easily and they become besties just like that. The relationship with Toda and Sako just ends up dissolving without any explanation? Glad to be over with this one.

damn this was honestly one of the best manga i've read.

I'm conflicted. On one hand I really liked the ending, and I definitely appreciated that Manami ended up in juvenile detention, but on the other hand, there were some things that felt rushed. For example, Sako faced no consequences for r*ping and blackmailing Ayumu. With the way the story went, I definitely thought he was going to get what he deserved. Also, the teacher with the short hair, I forgot her name, how on Earth should she be allowed to teach? She entered a relationship with a teenager! That is illegal and should have been on her permanent record.



Other than that, to those who say this isn't realistic, educate yourselves. I am a victim of bullying, and this is exactly how teachers and superiors react to situations like these. They do anything they can to sweep it under the rug and find a way out. The only unrealistic aspect of this manga was that Manami got caught and sent to juvie after, and this is rare, Ayumu sued her. Usually this doesn't happen.



Great manga overall, super underrated.

that ending was a little bit meh, it shows ayumu grow as a character from a position where she needed to be supported to a one when she herself supports others, in this case miki, but besides that, i disliked how somethings were dealth with

1. I feel katsumi didnt get any real closure, he barely confronted his dad in a few pages and later on is shown to be in his home and thats all, ayumu didnt confront him the same way she confronted anzai, and katsumi didnt confronted manami, and he didnt got any punishment or real closure, nor any words towards his relation with toda sensei, she just gets busted for it and then they simply split
   
   
2. I find a little bit idiotic how anzai ended in the reformatory because of the bullying and not the murder attempt but i liked how she didnt really repent, anzai was irredemeable to very end.
   
   
3. How anzai herself need to convince ayumu to go the fucking police, in fact, how no one ever goes to the police in the first place despite all whats being done to ayumu
   
   
4. Having lots of characters crying over guilt felt annoying, infuriating even, yes they feel bad for being meanies to ayumu, it was clearly conveyed the first time hirose cried over it.
   
   
5. How Sonoda was barely a character, it feels like he was introduced in order to give ayumu an heterosexual romantic interest and he never went beyond that role.
   
   
6. Miki leaving felt a little forced, like since manami had been dealt with there wasnt any other possible source of drama, i guess she leaving serves to reinfoce the notion that ayumu has grown to be a more independent, capable girl, but i think the same could have been portrayed without her leaving.
   
   

Besides those points, i liked how ayumu finally gets a fresh start at the school free of bullying and being welcome by her classmates, all in all, i liked it, i give it a 7 out 10.

I am happy with how the manga ended up but sad that the story ended. Life was most currently one of those story's where you want to follow the main character and know that everything goes positive in there life. For all the characters you kind of wonder what happened to everyone and not just ayumu. I wonder if miki will come back to see ayumu and invite me to there wedding lol jk, or will manami change her ways once she leaves jail or kasumi if he'll be punished for his acts against those girls. I don't wanna bore people but I loved this manga!
