I actually really love this story. It is slow and random but the plot twists and follow through make me love it. All the little stories, the flower one in particular, give me a sad attachment to these characters and show different aspects and personalities. That being said it is not for everyone. The drawings are old the characters aren't very exceptional and with 7 volumes to fill it can take awhile to get through it. For me it came at a good place when I had time to kill so I got really into it and by the end I was thoroughly invested.But if you don't get behind the story the characters can get annoying, luckily this wasn't the case for me and I was able to enjoy it.
