MY HEART IS SO FULL <3

I cannot explain the sheer joy this comic is bringing me. It's set in my country, features my culture and makes me feel so represented! Just being able to relate to a FANTASY about MERMAIDS and other incredible supernatural creatures fillllls my heart to the brim! It's like a dream!

Chapter 2 is even better than the first! I'm so glad that the author includes so much of reality - from South African history and culture to aquatic biology and nature conservation issues - in a work of magical fiction! The amount of thought and intricate work that has gone into creating the lore of this world and the creatures in it is astounding. Despite being a fantasy, all the representation feels so REAL and natural. And I'm learning so much!! Who knew that many fish species have the ability to change genders??? So cool. Also the fact that all these supernatural creatures are not big on labels is so great because f**k labels really :)

Anyway, this is a very messy review because I just poured out my feelings and thoughts with no care for coherency. YOU NEED TO READ THIS COMIC !!!!
