AFTER SCHOOL LESSONS FOR UNRIPE APPLES APPRECIATION POST
JUST GOT UP TO DATE WITH AFTER SCHOOL LESSONS FOR UNRIPE APPLES (CH. 135 with ad-watching fast passes on webtoon) AND OH MY GOD HSJAFHJSDHFKHSDFJKHADKSBCWE
Usually Cheol reacts to things Mi-ae does (which, by right, should make him blush (in a typical romance story)) in a shocked, appalled, or downright disgusted manner. BUTTTTTTT the more we see Cheol's pov (esp in those small moments by himself), the more we can tell just how much he likes Mi-ae (more than as a friend) (small smiles, etc) and just how unaware he actually is of this HJKDHFLJKSHDJKFH He's Mi-ae protector #1 and such a refreshing, trustable character
And Jisu is such a likeable character too ISTG HSKDJAFHJKSLHLJH like HUHDOF:EWIBCMNBEIW he's Mi-ae protector #2 and can be there for her when Cheol can't TuTTTTTT.... He's such a silly man
All the class S students are so loveable, and they're like a big big family T-T All their interactions are so heartwarming AEAEEAEAEEAEAEEAEAEEAEAEEE the academy is like Mi-ae's special home jfsdhfksdhflk
And Mi-ae herself, she's so cute and such a perfectly imperfect protagonist – while she's optimistic, bubbly and energetic, sometimes what people say actually bothers her, she has insecurites, and she's gets worried about Cheol even if it's at her own expense... That''s what makes her so realistic and endearing AAAAAAAAAAAA
I LOVE THEM SO MUCH AAAAEAEAEAEEEE
Unripe apples is so refreshingly enjoyable, it's so wholesome and funny and cute and oh my god. I first heard of it from one of Coax Illust's videos, where he drew a character based on instructions from a viewer and had to guess who it was (it was mi-ae), and I never thought I would go and read it until a few days back. Every panel feels like biting into a green apple. You'd have to read it to understand. It's almost as if you're there, sitting in the alley next to Mi-ae and Cheol's houses, staring at the airplanes in the sky beneath the streetlights; it's almost as if you're there, in the soft field of grass in the countryside, an elementary schooler once again; it's almost as if you're there, by the side of your caring, warm-hearted friends, relishing in your youth.
Reading unripe apples makes me want friendships like them, fun like them, and such an exciting school life T-T Someone tell me where can I get those
