I feel like "I love Amy" is quite the underrated manhwa.
I personally like the art style in "I love Amy." The art style in "I love Amy" seems to be simple yet eye catching. The colours pop and the expressions are easy to understand.
I also find the character designs in "I love Amy" very good.
As an example, I will use Amy and Bibi.
Amy's design consists of downward slanted eyes, messy/spiky short hair with bangs that covers the eyes, and band-aids on both legs. Lots of it.
To me, Amy's eyes and hair already shows that her character is meant to be someone who is not confident and is fearful or kind. Meanwhile, the band-aids may be the author's way of telling us readers that Amy is "broken."
And then there's Bibi. Bibi's design, in contrast to Amy's design, is bubbly and bright. This even comes through with the colours. Amy having brown hair and brown eyes while Bibi has blonde hair and white eyes.
Bibi's design consists of large round eyes, straight long hair with a middle parting and bangs that does not cover the eyes, and large heart pupils.
Despite how bubbly and bright Bibi's designs are, her expressions are often quite unsettling. Her large round eyes with large heart pupils can be quite creepy at times. Bibi often wears her hair in twin tails. This hairstyle is often associated with children.
To me, the twin tails implied that Bibi is a carefree individual and the bangs which does not cover her eyes told us that she is a rather confident individual.
We, the readers of "I love Amy" get to see the tension between the characters without anyone in particular being the "villain" in the story. This tension in particular would be
The tension between the two characters does not feel like some unnecessary drama that was added in just to spice things up. Sure, it's there to create a more interesting story but it doesn't feel like it.
The part that I can use as an example for this is what happened between
In my personal opinion "I love Amy" is a manhwa that has characters that makes it feel alive. The way the characters interact with one another feels real. I personally can relate to Amy and Camilla's dynamics, and I'm sure lots of other people can too. I also see good character development happening in the near future of this manhwa, so I'm sticking around to see what will happen next.
This manhwa personally connected deeply with me. I wish I had something like "I love Amy" when I was younger as I may have gotten the courage to try and talk it out with my ex best friend.
If you have any interest that relates to stuff like psychology or character development, I definitely recommend this manhwa. I'm already quite obsessed with this manhwa and can't wait for the next chapter. XDD
