this caught me off guard
the opening scene was like what the fk
but i loved it and this made me feel sad
we deserve to enjoy what we enjoy even if it has no meaning <3 the small “empty” moments matter most of all sometimes
not only reproducing!!

"Before You Go Extinct" consists of short stories, telling us about different animals facing extinction (in a way). When I first started reading this arc, I was expecting a different kind of extinction, and while the concept is difficult to explain, I enjoyed reading this arc.

However, the art was a bit confusing at times and this made it difficult to tell the characters apart. Despite this, I did find it very interesting, some short stories more engaging than others. I would definitely read other works of this author.

A solid 3.5, rounding up to 4.

A collection of small stories about animals pondering the meaning and meaningless of life.


What I disliked
‣ confusing art style
‣ confusing storylines


Review

I received an ARC of this book.

DNFd at 35%

Absurd and confusing. I had no idea what was happening or what the point was. Honestly I can't think of anyone I would recommend this one to.

I think I was expecting more realistic stories of the animals facing extinction and what might trouble them.

I am not sure what to say about this its so cute yet emotionaly forward at the same time.
The manga has many small stories of different animals with different stories , alot of them are dark and ask many philosophical questions about the meaning of life and the types of cultural practices.
There are themes of murder, death and violence but the images of the animals are extremly cute so I would be careful because this is not a cute manga!
I would be intrested in picking up a second volume as its pretty intresting!
