Synopsis

A teacher's murder at the hands of his student is the talk of the town. Due to the perpetrator's youth, the media censor his name and dub him "Boy A." His purported motive is simple: he disliked his teacher.

The actual identity of Boy A is Takashi Ogura, a cheerful and unassuming student, and the truth behind the events is something he will never utter. In reality, he caught the teacher raping his childhood sweetheart, Yui Sasaki, and bludgeoned the man to death to protect her. Having spent three years in a correctional facility, Takashi is out, living a normal life under a new name. But as he continues his life, the past returns to haunt him. One's sins are not easily forgotten, and the question lingers—will he forever be known only as Boy A?

This manga is quite unique I'd say



On the early chapters it got a really heavy atmosphere
Compared to most tragedy manga that I have read I felt the most on this one
The author captures the atmosphere of the situation perfectly/almost perfectly which took my attention

I find this like a roller coaster, even though it is only 32 chapters/4 volume.
The ending isn't the best nor is it bad. I find the ending acceptable but its not that good. I personally liked how it ended (no hang cliff).

This manga is a unique one for me since I havent read one that touches on the ideas and points that this one does. In that regard I think this manga is quite good. However as a general manga that I read, it was mediocre to say the most.

Like I mentioned, the story is a unique one and had a lot of potential with what it set up in the first 3 chapters. With that said, I think what the manga did do was very lackluster and didnt use its potential at all. While I wont say it stayed safe with its plot, I can ...

Oh my, this is for sure one of the worst manga I've ever read. The author clearly had in mind making an uncomfortable series, and he accomplished that, but only that.

There was only one aspect of this manga that wasn't utterly garbage, and that was the art. But don't get me wrong, it isn't great by any stretch of the imagination, it's just that everything around it was so appalling that it seems better in contrast. This is a clear example that not everything that you write should be published.

The more I read the clearer it appeared to me, the author didn't want to make ...
