SynopsisIn a European school dorm, Georges Saphir is admired and loved by everyone. However, afraid of others doing him harm, he has never allowed anyone to get close. Why is it then that misfit Robert can effortlessly step over this line Georges has drawn, and see right through him? And will getting too close to Robert result in a tragedy that justifies his worst fears? (Source: DMP) |

I thought this manga was absolutely wonderful. Though the art was not always consistent, at times (and there were many) the art was really quite spectacular. A tragic romantic tale with bits and pieces of almost every genre in it. Indeed it is mainly a dramatic romance, but it also contained a lot of comedy and inspiring parts. It’s mainly religious, referring to God and faith a lot of the times, but not enough for a person like me who is not religious, to be uncomfortable. Rather, it has deep insight on somebody who has tremendous faith in one’s religion, with the addition of some insight on human behavior. The story was really sweet. The plot flowed well unlike many mangas out there where, for some attempt at bettering the plot, out-of-nowhere things are thrown in to the story. Everything was well related and though sometimes it was predictable, it was still a very good story. It kept my attention and entertained me throughout the time I was reading it. I personally found the ending to be extremely superb. It wasn’t a completely shocker that made readers think ‘Where the heck did this come from? This sucks and I’m annoyed now. I’m going to stop reading this manga out of pure hatred for this 180 plot twist.’ Instead, it made me feel somewhat prepared for it as well as making it more touching since the feelings have been accumulating since the beginning of the manga. Generally, this manga was a wonderful read. It was sweet, cute, really nice, and I really enjoyed reading it. read more
