Ano Ko no Ie review

Ano Ko no Ie is a beautifully told coming of age story. While it may seem directionless at first, understanding the character's motives is the real story and what their choices mean tells the real story.
It's difficult to take the story at face value and a lot goes unsaid, but the MC's introspection provides the reader with the context to understand and empathize with her.
Story
The story is rather direct, but that suits its narrative style just fine. For a short manga it can be frustrating for stories and characters to seem irrelevant but nothing goes to waste in the manga's narrative. Everything has purpose and meaning to it.
At the risk of sounding so vague as to be meaningless, the ending may or may not be satisfying. It's all about how you take the overall message of the final chapter.
Art
The art style is simplistic and some characters are deformed stylistically. This suits the manga just fine.
The art does a fantastic job of setting the tone, almost moreso than the character's expressions do. Whether it's a sleepy village or an overwhelming and stressful forest.
Character
The characters are relatable and enjoyable with the MCs introspection providing narration for their personality.
Enjoyment
This manga was incredibly enjoyable for me. It's an introspective piece about aging and the anxieties that come with it. Each of the characters seems to represent a different manner of anxiety that comes with living. Whether it's maturity, loneliness, or being relied upon. I feel like that's the overall message of the series, what it means to really interact with people at different stages of maturity and how to be mature yourself.
