Pink Story & Art by Kyoko Okazaki Review
Living her daily life with her pet
crocodile and moonlighting as a prostitute, Yumi’s life is anything but
ordinary. One day, she meets a young man who turns out to be her mother’s much
younger lover. As the two become entwined with one another just how will their
lives change? And will it be for the better or the worse?
Pink is a rather fascinating tale
riddled with intriguing characters. Perfectly paced, Pink is easy to become
sucked in to. The art is probably one of the book’s weaker points though I am
not sure if that is so much the fact the book is 25 years old or not. The ending
alone makes the book well worth the read however the book also has a great
sense of humor.
Pink’s art may not have dated well
but its story has, ringing just as true today as when it was written. At one
volume, this series is not a huge commitment which also works to its advantage.
In conclusion, Pink is a nice read well worth the reader’s time.
Rating: 9/10
