Synopsis

A boy wakes up in a hospital bed, surrounded by a group of strangers. He is told that his name is Tsubasa Ichinose and that these strangers are his various family members. The Ichinose family consists of: Minako, the mother; Kakeru, the father; Sachie, the grandmother; Kozo, the grandfather; Shiori, Tsubasa's little sister; and Tsubasa himself. They all suffered a car accident that left them with amnesia.

With no one to rehabilitate their memories, the Ichinose family is forced to start over from zero—in more ways than one. Though they decide to get through this ordeal together, they are confronted with the reality of their past selves upon returning to their home. Nevertheless, Tsubasa defiantly believes the family can still come together to support each other, even as it becomes increasingly clear that each member is hiding a secret from the life they cannot remember.

Well-written

I'm still yet to process my thoughts on this manga, but time hasn't given me an answer.

I've read every Taizan-5 work (except a miscellaneous one-shot), and I've come to grips with his narrative style, his themes, and his way of telling stories. Purposeful messiness, as I like to call it. “Ichinose-ke no Taizai” was easily the best the author had to offer up to this point. A narrative that messes with your head, purposefully putting you in a confused state, in which you need to piece together “What the hell happened to this family?”. It had comedy, tragedy, themes about family, friendships, and how ... it all helps one cope with a sad life that doesn't reign any fruits. It was stellar, and I still feel that it was stellar, even until the ending. Nobody seems to like the ending, and even state it was Axed, but that doesn't make any sense. The story came to an end, and the mess the family got into was resolved, even if it wasn't satisfying.

The story, as most Taizan-5's works, is about an innocent blindness. The eyes of somebody who doesn't know reality, and is kept in the dark because of a million reasons. Amnesia, a whole family, a seemingly broken home, with a framing of Inception. It was a banger, the entire time, wondering what was real, what wasn't, or if it mattered at all. How are the dreams connected? How is any of this happening to begin with? Why isn't this person here anymore? It answered with what you wanted, and another question, while still revealing REALITY. That's the point of this story. It wasn't about a cathartic ending that solved every question, but one that gave motive to the madness. The real story, is about learning why we're here, and going back to how things are.

I compare this story to “Sonny Boy”. A masterful story that delivers a thematic, even if abstract, gut-punch because of how hard it is for characters to change. It wasn't entirely well received, even called pretentious, or stupidly complicated by the community. Stories like this need to exist. Tales about the realities of escapism, about recognizing the faults in one-self, and sure, it wasn't perfect. Some parts left me more confused than intrigued, and once I got what it meant, it still didn't make sense from a logical standing. Some of these stories get abstract, and some parts get changed to fit a newer direction, which it did greatly.

The characters and art are probably what I loved the most here. Everybody has such a big motive to be where they are. The generational pain, how families push the members into becoming terrible versions of themselves, and how even by recognizing that, nothing gets fixed… yet. The art has this playful, but deceivingly disturbing aspect to it, where you feel that it could all go horribly wrong at a flip of a page. As if I anticipated a jumpscare, or a flip that could destroy me, similar to “Takopi's Original Sin”. It's so beautiful, with such detail in the eyes, and the shine on them. Extremely expressive, beautiful, with some beautiful spreads, and thematic meaning to every panel.

I love this manga, which is something I realized while writing this. I didn't wanna be the weird guy who gives it a positive review when everybody seems to hate it or be mixed on it after the ending. Don't care. This manga is a damn near masterpiece that talks about family in one of the most realistic ways I've ever seen. It isn't a series of tragic events which fragments it, it's a matter of personalities, and negative aspects carried by the past. Will a little trip fix it? No, but it's all you need, a step in the right direction. I'll miss the family, but specially Tsubasa. One of my favorite protagonists in recent memory.

9.3/10. Again, it does have some faults that can't allow me to give it a 10/10, specially how some aspects weren't used for the ending. Still, I wish for people to give it a chance. Taizan-5 is an incredible author.

Mixed Feelings

This manga started out really intriguing. There was a lot to like about it. The characters were solid, the premise was interesting, and there were lots of mysteries to unfold. Unfortunately, a little over half way through, things became repetitive and the narrative began to suffer. There were moments of decent insight into familial relations but they could not overcome the fact that the manga needed to move towards its ending with a plan instead of petering out until Jump decided to cancel it. The ending is a bit of a let down, but it at least closed things somewhat. It makes me wish that ...

Not Recommended

What originally began as an intriguing memory loss mystery thriller premise with a 7 Deadly Sins motif quickly degraded to a monotonous repetitive torture porn entirely relying on shock factor and nonsensical volatile plot twists. While I didn't particularly like Takopi's Original Sin overall, the emotional gut punches there were at least coherent & to the point with somewhat llkeable protagonists. Ontop of comically evil school kids, there's not a single likeable character here or ANYTHING even worth remembering. The only thing that will remain in your head is the snot cheese tears that the author loves to draw whenever a character is even remotely ...
