About this deal

I honestly don´t have much to say about it besides that it is such a cute love story with amazing and likable characters. And that it is just that stinking cute. Besides, the story isn´t only great since it also has amazing artwork, great diversity and LGBTQ+ rep, and science fiction at its best. But the best part may be that you can read the entirety of this novel on the interwebs for free. Since I am such a lovely person (I totally do not have an ego or anything xD) the link to this webtoon will be provided down below (so at the end of this review). I would say if you want to read more comics, graphic novels, or webtoons I would definitely suggest that you take a look at this one. I also think Always Human is a great introduction to the comic/webtoon/graphic novel world. Always Human is full of amazing queer characters and I loved it! We have the two main characters Sunati and Austen meeting and navigating a new relationship whilst having important conversations about disability and confidence. Their romance made me melt inside, it was so beautiful. The progression of their romance was great. North carefully shows the reader how their bond forms and makes sure to develop the relationship well. Sunati is attracted to Austen the first time she sees her and is drawn to what she assumes is Austen's bravery and confidence to live life unmodded. When Sunati learns the truth, she's still attracted to Austen and asks her on a date. Gradually, their relationship unfolds as they deal with friends, family, and the emotional conflicts that come with every romance. Together, they will learn and grow in a story that reminds us no matter how technology evolves, we will remain . . . always human. Sunati and Austen are students in a future, spacefaring, Earth-based society. They're also falling in love with each

After an eventual encounter, Sunati learns that Austen has Egan’a Syndrome, making her own of the rare people unable to accept most body modifications. In their budding romance Austen and Sunati must learn to communicate and come to truly understand their feelings and how they interact giving their varying life experiences. I also really liked the side characters of this story (both friends of the main characters were really cute and I liked how involved both parents of both girls were). I also need to go off on a side tangent on how beautiful the art style is. I absolutely adored the colors and the music the author paired with this webcomic was fantastic. When I say I fell in love with this webcomic, I mean I really fell in love with how stunning it all is. My heart has never felt so at peace and at home with a comic the way I did with this one because that’s how alluring and captivating the art is. the story also seems to be self-aware about being very much insta-love; austen even mentions this at one point, and despite that sunati still asks her unironically if they’re now proper girlfriends after the very first date they go on. in much the same way, the dialogue often made me cringe; it’s very on the nose and stilted. Friends, I absolutely adored this webcomic! Everything about this comic was so beautiful, so endearing, and everything I never knew I needed until I had it. My soul is so filled with warmth, happiness, and all the best vibes. I don’t think I can recommend this enough and you can read it for free on Webtoons!In the near-future,people use technology to give the illusion of all kinds of body modifications—but some people have “Egan’s Syndrome,” a highly sensitive immune system that rejects these “mods” and are unable to use them. Those who are affected maintain a “natural” appearance, reliant on cosmetics and hair dye at most to help them play with their looks. This was such a fun and sweet romance, graphic novel focusing on Sunati and Austen. In this world, technology has advanced and people can modify what they look like on a pretty routine basis. Sunati loves changing her look and using this to boost her confidence, however she becomes intrigued by Austen, a girl who always looks the same.

And even though she’s leaving, and even though I’m staying behind, I have to believe distance won’t matter. I have to believe we’ll always find each other.” One thing I wish we had more of was Austen. The reason I say that is because Austen felt like the weaker of the two main characters. Suntai felt like a stronger force for me and had a way of capturing my attention over Austen. Even when we had panels of just Austen, I found myself wanting more from her and wanting to know so much more about her. I’m hoping we’ll see these characters again and I refuse to believe that this is the end of the story for these two. Sunatiis attracted toAustenthe first time she sees her and is drawn to what she assumes is Austen’s bravery and confidence to live life unmodded. When Sunati learns the truth, she’s still attracted to Austen and asks her on a date. Gradually, their relationship unfolds as they deal with friends, family, and the emotional conflicts that come with every romance. Together, they will learn and grow in a story that reminds us no matter how technology evolves, we will remain . . . always human. the comic plays around with disability as a theme; austen is unable to use fashion mods due to her immune system. this, of course, causes a myriad of conflicts for how sunati views her, diving into how abled people love to use disabled people as inspiration porn. which was a nice touch that offered a bit of depth to the story.different choice: whether or not to accept an exciting job offer that would require a year-long stay on Saturn's moon I loved this story, it just gave me all the best feelings and I didn’t mind the ending where things were resolved very neatly. This was a wholesome read filled with simple but effective one liners that were everything I needed. A young woman debates taking her dream job, though it would mean separating from her girlfriend, in the graphic The characters were also so cute and I honestly shipped them from the moment both protagonists arrived/showed up. Truly the representation was epic (like both the LGBTQ+ and racial diversity). Sunati – 22 year-old Asian-Australian, has anxiety and loves mods, works for a company on VR environment design, dreams of being an astronaut and loves space.

i wish i could tell you more about the story, but there honestly isn’t any plot beyond the blossoming relationship between the two main characters. we’re offered a slice-of-life look into both their lives: friends, work, university, goals and dreams. the biggest struggles that pop up there are getting through exams for austen, and dealing with a heavy workload for sunati. Rep: main sapphic couple, agender, asexual, and non-binary rep, Achillean Dads, Spanish-language usage, chronic illness rep First serialized on Webtoon and now published in partnership with GLAAD, Always Human by Ari North is a sweet sci-fi romance about two young women who learn that imperfections contribute to beautifully uncommon personalities.other. Facing school difficulties caused in part by a condition that prevents body modifications, Austen considers The romance between Sunati and Austen is so very sweet and turned my heart into pure mush. What I really loved about it is that while the communication between them wasn’t always perfect the plot points that revolved around that always led to important and healthy conversations.They were always so supportive of one another and you could just feel the trust and love between the two of them. Love and Gravity is a sweet, futuristic graphic novel in which young women make hard, adult choices in their lives.
