Aozora to Kumorizora · review
"Tell me if we could keep living in the future what kind of happiness would be waiting for us?" With chapters being released as slow as the consecutiveness of Olympics, this one has a small but dedicated fanbase who'll read it through the winters. A story about two 'Cleaners', and the story of their growth. One random day like any other, an emotionless husk gets chosen to be an executioner. He does his job as naturally as breathing until he encounters a special target. A reflection to himself but in someway something more. While the manga lacks the necessary amount of chapters to flesh everything out, the storyis in no way rushed. The characters are given time to interact. They grow through one another, though neither has anything to offer. Going from longing for death to wishing time could go on forever.
The art is subtle. Not a stroke is wasted... It paints itself from the perspective of its protagonists, empty and slowly progressing from emptiness to longing.
Even though the slow updates may be a pain, worth a read. Really sad to see a manga with so much to offer be this undermined when worthless isekais get two seasons.
