I'm currently writing this review after reading the entirety of the manga. I'll be upfront, I'm using this as a way to collect my thoughts. How do the people around you shape who you are as a person? How many circumstances affect who you are? How much have you given up to uphold those faces? And with that, how much of you is really you? The story is there, it's not great. It's merely there, to be a vehicle for the characters to move through the manga with. If you read this manga, you're here for the characters, how they adapt and react to what's thrownat them, how they choose and decide on the things that happen to them.

The art isn't spectacular either, though it is almost perfect for the manga. It brings to life the most important moments in the story, even if it brings you great discomfort while doing so. It is there to enunciate, nothing less and nothing more.

This manga isn't a masterpiece. Far from it, but it does give you a story led by a cast of characters that will make you ponder on the questions it's willing to ask. There will be discomfort, there will be a sense of wrong instilled in you when you read this manga, and after all that you will never get a satisfying ending.

I liked this manga, not for what it has in it's panels, but what it is willing to show me.
