Pepper and Carrot

Ah yes comics, I haven't read them for a long time since an app I'm used to use was dead, sad react only.

So, let's talk about Pepper & Carrot. First of all, the art style is really appealing to me, neither to say that each episode is not too long to read for a short time break.
The plot though, is kinda obvious tbh, which I mean is that it's really easy to guess what will happen next. Plus, it's too cliche for me. I know the greatness of friendship, hardworking, etc. But there are tons of comics and manga talking about these thing.

BUT, I know there have already a lot of "but" but bear with we, I do like the flow and the theme each episode has, at least from what I've read. For example, the first episode, it's really cute and funny. Another example is episode 13 "pyjama party", very cute and interesting. In this episode, there are two other characters that are Pepper's friends, which is the reason I enjoy comics so much. It's always a enjoyment seeing vivid and diverse characters that author created, really wholesome and nice work.
