It took close to two years to reach the end and I wanted to put a little something in here because it was worth the waiting. As I'm writing, I'm waiting for last chapter which I'm sure, will be a fair ending. First, the plot was interesting. A young substitute teacher in need of money to live and to pay his sister's hospital few, becomes a hitman, partnering with a cop called Kuzumi. Reading this, it had to be interesting as soon as a cop is involved because sooner or later, the cat will be out of the bag and it will be bad. Where the mangagets great is when seeing the psychological evolution of the main character Shiki. As you all guessed, at first it is hard, then killing is a little more common and then it is regret (because he is still a good guy), imagining dead people everywhere we go. To add up with this, cops will be meddling with their business.

The manga is a centered around this teacher character but we have focus, in some chapters, on co-characters which are interesting too because each one has his own connection with Shiki and his own way to live with it.

What I liked about the story was its real aspect. We are not in an easy-going, unrealistic manga where everything's fine and happy ending, children, etc. The writer is fair by staying on the right tracks, delivering an interesting, realistic plot.

With this story, we have cool art, nothing astonishing but enough to have an easy reading.

Though it took some time (Ok, you'll tell me that some mangas last forever before getting a new chapter), without being insanely deep, I enjoyed reading this story and hope you'll appreciate this review written in so-so English.
