This is a gripping thriller. The story has psychological, sci-fi, medical, and youkai(Japanese sprits) elements. I read it in one go. There is a LOT of texts, and if you want to understand the story you’ll have to read carefully. Or else it won’t be fun. Story 9/10 There is a woman who is pregnant since 20months, a doctor who disappeared from a locked room and missing babies from a hospital. These mysteries are interconnected, and we unravel them with our 2 protagonists— Chuuzenji(librarian and wisdom aficionado) and Sekiguchi(writer). Over the chapters the story became unreliable and I was fearing that theending would be via “deus ex machina “. But no. I wasn’t disappointed at all. The story has a well-explained ending. I’m fully satisfied, and this is the best compliment that I can give after reading a mystery manga.”

Art 7/10
Art is good, not exceptional. I always give 7/10 unless the art is exceptional. In this case the art was useful bcoz there was a lot of text.

Characters 7/10
I liked all the characters and side characters. Make no mistake, the story is the main character here.

Enjoyment 8/10
I love to read psychological and mystery manga. So this was a treat. I would love to read more stuff like this.

Don’t read this if you want an easy to read slice of life, action, romance or sports-comedy.
But if you want a mystery, dig in.

Thank you for reading this review!!
