Loneliness and Empathy in The Girl from the Other Side

- The Girl from the Other Side: Siúil, a Rún is a charming yet haunting gothic fairy tale about an unusual family searching for a place to belong.
This video was made in response to Pause and Select’s NOVID challenge. I may have fudged the instructions a little here by discussing both The Girl from the Other Side’s manga AND it’s OVA, but since neither have an video essay on them yet, I feel it still follows the spirit of the challenge.
Please also note that The Girl from the Other Side’s OVA will be legally available to watch as a part of Japan’s Online Film Festival 2020-2021. Check the JFF’s schedule to see when/if it’s available in your country. For the US, you can watch the OVA on 12/11/20.

Yay, now The Girl from the Other Side is officially getting an anime adaption and WIT studio is also set to make another OVA to be released alongside it!!
Sugoi !
A central theme of Nagabe’s work is different forms of unlikely love. Girl From the Other Side to me is the story of forbidden companionship, and the way we can’t control our hearts and where they guide us, no matter the danger. The Teacher’s heart guides him back to Shiva even though he’s a cursed monster and she is a human. I would recommend reading his other manga Love From the Other Side, as it’s a short story collection all about love as well! Set in a similar universe as Girl From the Other Side. It’s really good!
Ooo, thank you!! I adore Nagabe's artwork and themes so much, so I definitely need to look into Love from the Other Side.
The ending for this manga is chef’s kiss perfect. So bittersweet.
Ancient magus bride vibes
So happy to have found this, The Girl from the Other Side is such a beautiful manga and it really means so much to me.
that art really hit's different. Nice video whimsy
The manga's artstyle is absolutely goregous and honestly it reminds me a little of Houseki no Kuni. WIT studio really did an awesome job capturing it.
Ok now I'm getting jealous of all the reading you manage to do. These stories are way more interesting than those in shows and stuff but I'm dyslexic lol
The Girl from the Other Side is getting an anime next year, so hopefully it'll be a faithful adaption that you could watch. Trying audio books for novels might be another option if you haven't tried them yet. I think some comics are also starting to have audio books/a read-to-me option, but I hope more books, comics, and manga become more accessible for folks with visual / reading impairments so they can enjoy stories too.
I’m putting this on my list of mangas to read. It got my curiosity. Nice review like always! You are always suggesting great manga :)
Thank you! It really is a lovely manga.
Well done. There are some cool editing ideas in this video. You also did a good job of assembling the video as a whole in a way that compliments the mood of the series and the aspects of it that you choose to emphasize.
Thank you so much! I had a lot of fun editing this video, and I think of all the manga videos I've done so far, this maybe one of the ones I'm most proud of. ^_^
The girl from the other side is a beautiful well crafted story. I’m so glad I read it.
Glad to have found your channel through P&S's novid challenge :)
Thank you for recommending this manga, I have seen it somewhere before and forgotten about it, but now I will definitely read it!
Thanks for watching and I hope you enjoy the manga!! 😊 It really is a lovely gem.
You have good taste. Just flipping through some of your videos I've found multiple obscure but great manga. This is another one of them.
Thank you!! ^_^ I love covering lesser known manga.
HOOOOW is your channel so underrated?? Its so good!!
Thank you! I think the algorithm kind of hates me because I don't always cover the most popular series 😅, but still I enjoy making videos.
@@whimsydearest Well don't let it discourage you. I appreciate your content ^^
omg I really have to watch this now honestly I only found; it about this now so I'm late however! I thought the whole.metaphorical aspect of a mirror was interesting! might even read it thanks to this 😤✋✨❤️
Better late than never. And yes!! Both are definitely worth checking out.
@@whimsydearest hell yeah! honestly I'm looking forward to finally reading it and possibly watching it if it comes out (or if it did) the whole style itself is like a child from a story book 😩✨✋
can someone please explain the anime to me in simple terms? i have just watched it but i don’t understand, (i’m not very smart so i need a simple explanation) 😊
They have an anime..
Yes!! That's what I meant by talking about its OVA (original video animation), but it would be neat if the series eventually got it own full on anime adaptation for the whole story.
@@whimsydearest i read a comment saying there will be one! the comment also said they don’t want to make it now though since the manga isn’t finished.
@@lxxy05 Yes, I just saw the anime announcement yesterday!! I was confused at first, but I guess that's what the OP must've been referring to. 😅 The manga is officially ending this year in April, so I think the anime announcement actually coincided with the announcement of the series ending. Hell's Paradise also just recently did something similar.
a new trailer released 5 days earlier???
Where can I watch this anime?
It came as a part of a bundle for one of the volumes and ocassionally plays at film festivals, but you might be able to find the OVA on vimeo.
I am so confused. I literally JUST watched this show, and I did not see the scenes where they were making the raspberry tarts, or where he pats the chair, or where the little bird is transformed into the monstrous one. I bought the English version on iTunes. Where did you find the full version?
The footage is actually from the 2019 OVA! It's like only 10 minute's long and occasionally it plays at cultural festivals. I don't think it's currently on any English streaming platforms, but you can find some of the clips on Sakugabooru.
@@whimsydearest Oooh! Thank you just found and watched it! How interesting!
I feel like the short version makes more sense than the long version… maybe I’ll have to read the manga to actually understand the story 😅
