After reading this, I'm actually surprised that there's no anime adaptation for this, nor acknowledgment, This story is a 10/10 for me and here are the reasons why
Story 10/10
The story is followed from the beginning till the end, despite having some "filler" chapters, they manage to connect it into the main story. Every sub-story has a reason, not
