“Tender, heartbreaking, and quietly unforgettable — I Want to Eat Your Pancreas is a masterpiece of gentle storytelling. The manga captures the fragile beauty of fleeting connections with such honesty that it left me both smiling and tearful. Sakura is luminous: stubborn, warm, and fearless in the face of her illness. The unnamed narrator (often so awkward and inward) becomes achingly real as Sakura peels him open, showing him what it means to live deliberately.
The art is delicate and expressive, using small, intimate moments — a shared lunch, a text, a shy smile — to build a whole universe of feeling. Pacing is perfect: neither rushed nor indulgent, it gives weight to each conversation and memory. Themes of mortality, vulnerability, and the quiet courage of everyday life land without melodrama.
This is the kind of book that lingers. Read it with tissues nearby but also with the knowledge you’ll come away fuller for having spent time inside these characters’ lives. Highly recommended to anyone who appreciates emotional, character-driven stories.”
