Skim was a very well-done piece of work. I enjoyed the design and artwork, and the storyline seemed very true-to-life, with friendships and a complicated affection/first love. Any woman who was some sort of outcast during high school should be able to sympathise for Kim, aka "Skim," as she deals with the emotions and aftermath of a kiss, and also with friendship strains, all the while being constantly viewed as a ticking suicide bomb by the reigning clique of the school.
Very enjoyable, and I hope to see more work from the Tamaki sisters in the future.
