- This manga will make you feel uncomfortable. Written by Inio Asano the author of Punpun, this story definitely pushed boundaries as far as they can go.

Asano knows how to make the reader confront intense realism in his narratives. That’s why they hit so hard.

What are you doing here?
Agree
It's absolutely a story that's difficult to digest but, for as uncomfortable as it is, A Girl on the Shore touches upon aspects of human relationships that most anime/manga never would dare to. The thing is, a lot of teenagers do go through these kinds of relationships, as much as we wanna pretend this isn't the case. Not to say too much but I went through some strange relationships in my early/mid teens and seeing a story contextualize some of those experiences I went through, well, it just made sense to me. A story that comments on the nature of those kinds of relationships is a story worthy of being told for those reasons, I think. Especially because it isn't as if A Girl on the Shore is glorifying any of it.
Well said 💯.
Well, I'd liked the story if it gave reasonable causes which is usually something that bothers us to think of, especially for teens, it isn't like the series is glorifying this but since this is supposed to involve around a younger audience throwing it at them just like that is not a good idea imo.
@@moh6734 finally. Thank you.
@@moh6734 Causes for what, having sex?
@@moh6734 What are you talking about ? that teenagers can't able to handle this manga or this manga is totally unrealistic?
This story explores sexuality in youth in the most realistic way I've seen in fiction. Because of the inherent taboos around the topic the theme of teenage sexuality is rarely touched upon but when it is we all know that we've been through something like this. Both characters attempt to both express and cover up emotions that are too embarrassing to say up front to the other through the most vulnerable medium of affection, sex. It's a mistake that even adults make but there's something so viceral about it coming from kids, like both their naivette and maturity all come into conflict through the adult act. Perhaps it's just because I have a very calloused heart and libido, or perhaps this is how many of us felt too, but I didn't feel uncomfortable or pleasured by the things I saw in this story. It's an emotional story of two kids not knowing how to love or even know that they're in love and fumble through those emotions while maintaining a friends with benefits relationship, something that I know real people go through.
well said, mad respect for you.

Inio Asano will make you uncomfortable.
Guys, if you like Pun Pun, I highly recommend watching Teeaboo's read along of it. It's like a therapy session mixed with deep talks
@Inu Ryu can you share the link?
having someone read and process it while i am lets me absorb the information better i love teeaboo’s reading
The shower chapter takes uncomfortable to a DIFFERENT level💀

Your recommendations often make me feel uncomfortable, that's why I love your channel.
I don't think he grew as a person that much. As for her, I think the silver lining is clearer: Don't expect to find happiness at the shore if all you do is look out for trash. They both used their time together as a mean to escape what they really needed. Also, I see many people fail to point this out, but he was abusive towards her, but that's empaty for broken people, if you feel worthless and start to experience the others around you as equals, like listening to the same music or having the same struggles, you feel they are as worthless as you. That's why her new boyfriend tells she is what he was looking for, that's why the other guy from school realizes all he need was to talk to reach her instead of waiting, that's why she sees the sea at the end, beyond the beach and the sand.
I can relate to an extent. I've had a relationship with a girl which sometimes confused me and her too. She has this notion that we can stay platonic, cause she's against different religions relationship (I never cared about any of that). I loved her with all I have, sometimes it's beautiful, sometimes I felt like she was distant. There's times that she won't even let me kiss her, and there's times that we can be really intimate. I thought it was really cruel of her to do that. In the end I knew we both have trust issues, but I'm willing to take that chance, alas she hurt me instead. I can understand why she did that, but I feel like we could never go back to the way it was ever again, no matter how hard she tries to recreate that. So I move on, but it feels like evey attempt that I make to grow or find someone else always ends up in a failure or disaster ever since.
Not a romantic relation, bt i had a friend and i mean like really close friend - we did share pretty personal stuffs with each other , we knew how the other one was feeling just by saying a single word- bt in the end she just turned away from me and i can understand more than anyone else why she did that- yet that shit hit hard and i still have trust issues- now i don't believe in any sort of relations- and uk what sucks the most- i cant even bring myself to hate her cz i know why she did that - rather whenever i remember these shits, i just end up hating myself- and people ask my why i don't like to socialize- this whole event legit fucked me real hard-
And yeah- i hope that u will also be able to get out of this shitty feeling and become stronger- best wishes for y'a
I just hate how much people were shitting on the girl in the comments. They were both kinda toxic to each other. And yes she was selfish but she made it clear from the start that she just wanted sex. He also used her. Yet ppl were calling her a bitch and all. When they're both children that are navigating this weird world...
I need an update...did" getting back together" happened yet or not?
@@pussydestroyer69285she still did brought it to herself, fell for him as for the guy just agreed due to what he was going through, it's a really complicated topic, both are still at fault but at the same time we can't blame them for they are still kids, they might have said real shit to each other but none took action to end it sooner until it was too late
I really love how you can switch between videos that are comedic in tone to more in-depth videos in which you talk about the works seriously.
Bro the fact that you were choking down tears was so real. Seriously that's crazy
I didn't even realize it my voice sounds similar but I'm not almost crying 😂
Obviously not his best work but I still loved this manga. I can understand why some people don't like it, but I love that Asano doesn't shy away from the gritty realism. Kids have sex. Kids can be depressed. Life isn't always sunshine and roses. Being a teen is weird and confusing, and for some it's brutal.
As a person whod never been in a relationship before, I wonder what it really feels like after reading the whole series, cuz I really didn't feel anything other than the lonely part. Or am I just un empathetic
That’s literally me I’m currently 18 and have never been in a relationship so to me reading the manga wouldn’t really effect me in.which is really sad because it looks like a manga I can really get into if I wanted to.
it truly broke me down because i’ve been through what koume’s been though
I was fortunate enough to be in 4 different relationships with 4 slightly different dynamics. I Haven't read this yet but I have read punpun before and after I got into my relationships. My first love doesn't parallel aiko (thankfully) but there are very similar dynamics that speak forth from my past when reading about aiko and all I can see when looking at aiko is her. Without these experiences beforehand I hadn't had as much of a connection so it might be a lack of parallels to your life that might make it harder to connect to.
Me too.
I remember reading A Girl on the Shore and thinking if I was reading a hentai at first. But then the Asano greatness came around. I don't think it's as good as Solanin or Dededede, but it was definitely a short and interesting read.
eyy

Hi
I like the fact your using Gehrman’s theme while doing this recommendation about this uncomfortable story as if he’s about to teach these kids a lesson
Made me realized why I love psychological mangas so much. There are stories where it’s messed up in a bad way and there’s messed up in a good way. The way they show the characters and do unexpected or immoral things will either get hate or love. Some will hate it because they don’t like how the character acts (maybe they read or watch stories that the mc gets better with a happy ending) and some will love it with how realistic and raw it is, we can see how the characters gets affected from their childhood and seeing their relationship build up or break apart because of the trauma that they can’t seem to move on to. I love stories with sad endings too because it’s life, not everything is happy you need to sacrifice your happiness or part of yourself for the benefit of your family or maybe yourself… I read a manga before and it made me cry, I would say oh how I wish he deserved better but that’s the thing in life, the people and the environment changes them, with their feelings suppressed for so long they become crazy and impulsive breaking the image they portrayed to others or how they used to act, people are now throwing them under the bus without truly understanding what the character went through or feeling right now. Making them suffer and just…like I said psychological… There are hidden gems there if you don’t look at the ratings (bias imo)
Honestly one of my favorite video you've dropped in a while, I love your more down to earth and personal vids
You hear the emotion in maskeds voice man the way he described it makes me really want to read this story and just the narrative just sounds so good and emotionally in depth and just so down to earth as we are as humans and what we go through in our times of struggles and needs and how we deal with those needs. Thank you for the recommendation
as a confused teenager this manga is really realistic
I was thinking of asking this story as a birthday present since I heard good things about it. Happy I did some more research before informing my parents xD
Happy birthday !
I'm uncomfortable because i can corelate the theme of this story into my real life relationships and forces the reader, me in this case, confront and mirror back my own experiences and forces me to see the good and bad in my own past.
This story makes me uncomfortable because of how grounded in reality this is
You can relate?
Let me just tell u this I never simped even before the word simp become popular I always put myself on a good level I never belittle myself for a girl or a women if a girl dumped me that was it then I was never talking to her again honestly
I'm in high school rn. Who is going thru all of this. I feel like some of us do. But it's so overhyped and overplayed in the media. Teens having friends with benefits is definitely not a common thing. Idk atleast that's how I feel. I could be wrong
This sounds painful. I'm in. Thanks for the recommendation. Also, I can hear your voice quavering at certain points. It's always great to know a story can hit someone personally, and I can clearly tell it affected you. Maybe it was just a slip in your voice, but to me it sounded like you choked up emotionally there. I can appreciate that for a review. Keep it up Masked. Adding more as well, but I appreciate the content. Hope you're well man, stay safe.
It's Inio Asano. That's all that's gotta be said.
His stories just hit hard.
i read punpun, i cry, but at the end i became stronger, punpun is not just a story, is a way of thinking, punpun can hurt you or help you, it depends on your mentality and how mentally strong you are
Where do you guys read manga??
@@lilii6914 mangakakalot
Inio Asanos style of character designs is super fucking distinct
My heart is going Pun Pun...
༼;´༎ຶ ༎ຶ༽
Oh god, even after reading Punpun this left me drained
this is actually my next Asano read! started with Punpun then Downfall and most recently Solanin(my new fav manga) and can't wait to read this story!
Read Dead Dead Demons too :D
this is the worst tipe of relationship that a teenager can go on. Personally I didn't feel uncomfortable, maybe because i went through this relationship and I saw that it represented probably one of my worst phases by far with my ex friend with benefits. The moment I read the manga I burst into tears, and it remembered me when one of each is attached to other, but the other one can't feel the same and they start to using you.
Nice video man, I felt the lump in you throat towards the end there 👌
Nice video bro,I can tell this one really hit you.Thanks for reading and reviewing this one for us👍
Inio Asano be like: And then.... depression.
Goodness, I hope you're ok... Thank you for telling about this. It has helped... a bit.
This manga hit way too close to home. But everyone has to move on eventually
yr videos can always put me to sleep - thanx bro
yo bro ik its kinda unrelated to this video but would you be making a separate video about "kokou no hito" i think that manga deserves more than it gets and its very high up your list too
Intentional or not Hearing the very real emotion in your narration gives this story/video adds some beautiful tragedy to it ( I mean that in a positive way) saying that As someone that's never experienced a relationship like this or romantic relationship.
God I need to read this. Just hearing the summary I simultaneously felt a weight off my shoulders and also a kinda crushing realization.
A lot of my relationships I had in school were with people that had a very negative relationship to sex. Later I found out both of us were kind of seeking the same thing, we both were abused when we were younger and because of that we were doing just like these characters, filling a void. We would do that same bs of doing very sexual things but trying to just remain just friends, because we didn't wanna lose that person to talk to.
To this day kissing is a weird thing for me. I've done every whorish thing you can imagine with men and women but the idea of kissing someone is outright scary to me.
So yeah this one hits really close to home with me.
You covered this perfectly❤️
Perfect music choice for the video BTW:D
It’s always a good time for depression
You really helped me understand the ending of the manga, thank you bro inshallah I hope you got through the trauma of reading it
When you brought up how relationships mark us. Man, that cut deep. Now I gotta sit back and think about my past relationships.
When they fell asleep holding hands, I broke down.
i think this one just hits people deep because it’s relatable. growing and the affects relationships have on us as people when we inevitably move on
When I first read it a few years ago I loved it and wanted to talk to people about it but I never recommended it to anyone it's the only thing I loved but never recommended to anyone because of what it is to me if you find it you'll love it but it's near impossible to recommend it to anyone I was just in my local waterstones and saw it was by Asano and thought bought it blind basically I should've known something was weird about it when I got ID'd for it never happened before or after XD
I'm picking this one up when I finish Vagabond, I'm also a big Berserk fan now thanks to your quality taste in manga bruh ❤️
God damn I haven’t even read this thing yet and your making me want to cry already
i was in the middle of reading goodnight punpun and it made me so sad but i currently stopped and now i want to read this
This was my first work by Asano a couple years ago and oh boy. It was to real fore at the time.
this made every vein in my fucking body feel intense pain bro...
because I know how it feels, I have been thro some shit like that, for 2 fuckinv years I could not move on.
I isolated my self, lost friends, got diabetes, fucked up my school and plans, all because I could not accept it for a long time.
now m feeling way better, but when ever I remember what happened and the shit I did to mh self, my whole body feels so painful..
I need to read girl on the shore. Almost got hype cause I thought this was a new short work from Asano.
Man I picked this up on a trip after reading and loving pun pun, and shit man was it a trip
As soon as I saw Inio Asano art style I knew this would be a good video
Fuckin love you Asano no matter how hard you break my mind
He ate her poop bruh what did asano want to say with that?
game is game
It sounded like you was bout to cry at 5:57 you ok, Masked Man?
It's been a while since I've read A Girl on the Shore. But since I'm rereading Punpun right now, I might as well revisit AGS again.
Am I the only one who deeply enjoys Inio Asanos works? Not in a "the sadness of the characters makes me happy" way, of course. I just remember there stories positively, as very valuable life lessons about staying true to yourself, not letting shyness take away life opportunities, not caring about other's opinions so much and generally enjoying the good things in life before they end. I find it both paradoxically sad and captivating the way Asano never points any conclusion at you. He just tells you a story, one that could be taking place the moment somewhere on earth (maybe in more than one place), and lets the choices of it's characters, which are neither good or bad but simply humans, simply take them to their place. I think he's also an absolute master at describing emotions. At settng a tone to the life periods the characters are passing through. I absolutely love his work.
this manga was both confusing and uncomfortable to read but man was it worth it, such a great story that showcases quite the taboo topic perfectly.
I cried I just want them to end up together
In speaking of manga i'm currently reading HolyLand right now it's been pretty great so far along,with that i'm also reading Junji Ito's Frankenstein and tomorrow i'm going to watch the Nana Anime.
This was very impactful!
I’ve been wanting to read this for a while and now I will 100%
its been a months since I've read my last manga and this is the one I reading right now for a comeback.
The poop panel will forever be stuck in my mind, ever since I read this a while ago.
Going through this rn, I've never been so confused in my early adulthood
I bought this.manga blind banware of his work. And man this series really drives into the emotions
Ayo asano why you making my man cry ಠ益ಠ
I've read a good bit of his stuff which might be mental olympics at some point but I'm looking forward to reading this one uncomfortable or not let's go
AND THAT S WHY IT IS GOOD.The asano strong point is make everything looking literally like reality and doing it well too.Whatever you read hit different cause of this

Gherman's theme playing in the background. i forgot how fire that track was
Inio asano, the king of depressing story
I loved punpun and ive been debating on reading this but i dont think id be able to relate to this as much since im a virgin lmao
@Unknown TimeX i feel that, objectively speaking it doesn't realllllly go into anything that in depth and goes througha few generic themes. But that being said no journey has ever personally made me feel as understood as PunPun did, it really helped me figure out a lot of stuff going on with myself.
Me being 13 and reading this made me regret life choices
whenever i hear a reviewer choke up multiple times during a review i know i have to read it.
This is the type of story "the less you know the better~"
Im a simple man. I see Inio Asano, I click.
It was a disturbing read indeed. The manga was adapted in a movie that appeared in theaters in 2021. Pretty good adaptation IMHO: the situations, scenes and dialogs are there but it's obviously less "graphic".
i recommend reading the manga i sold my life for then thousand yen per year it broke my heart
Loved the video btw ❤️
I fr bought this for my little sister because I thought it was a tame romance with some depressing stuff
Another sad manga you might wanna check out is Tokyo Kaido.

I doubt my heart can take another Asano manga right after I read Punpun. Sht was brutal.
Read it in one go during the third shift. One of the hardest mangas I have ever digested.
This can help me understand my pain.
Ah yes depression served on a silver platter nice and warm
