While many will review this manga saying it is disgusting and twisted. The tragedy of the entire story and the feeling of having my emotions buffeted about repeatedly, made this manga memorable to say the least. This manga was so incredibly tragic after lifting my hopes up, that I couldn't stop myself from crying like a total idiot. Somehow over the course of this narrative I found myself getting attached to Kurumi and actually found myself relating to some of her pain. I gave this manga an overall ten only because of the fact that It made me cry so hard. That in itself istruly an art. I almost want to thank the author for helping to give me such an emotional release..... Although the reason I was so emotional when I reached the end may have had something to do with the fact that it was 5:00am by the time I finished and I had been reading through the night. Anyways, If you can't handle hard and real subject matter, then this manga is not for you! This is no fluffy romance!
