I loved this manga.

It includes 6 very short stories inspired in 6 songs by a same author. I found them all appealing, very different from one another, no clichés, interesting and varied characters. I love Yumeka Sumomo´s art, it is very clean and simple... and I like her women especially.

But the best thing about this manga is that it has a very "Japanese" feel to it. It reminds me of haikus, in a way. The stories are somehow like "imprints", the portray of a "state of mind", almost like a painting or a photograph, same as a haiku. And they have, as well as ... other works by Yumeka Sumomo, a great deal of melancholy, but a sweet and dearing melancholy.
