Life GN 1
Two decades after its initial release, Life presents a viciously recognizable picture of the social hellscape that middle and high school can be.
― First published in 2002 and partially released by Tokyopop not long after, it would be easy, and maybe even comforting, to write Keiko Suenobu's Life off as a relic of the past. The art certainly upholds this wishful thinking; Suenobu's style is very much...
