* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotForLittleGirls: The series is about a somber middle school girl who is befriended by the eccentric New Transfer Student who thinks she's a mermaid. There's a lot of hand-holding between the two and the light novel has moe, brightly colored artwork. But with a title like A Lollipop Or A Bullet you shouldn't expect cute fluff from the manga. It's anything but. Umino is severely abused by her father and in a truly TearJerker of a BittersweetEnding she ends up brutally murdered by him.
