intelligent characters in the manga i have read. She is very analytical with everything and everyone, one of the reason she fail at humans relationships. Both of them with another person starts a war with another ES experiment clone, who unlike Akiba, is evil and wants destruction. The characters are very complex and the development is very good. The author deals with a lot of problems in today society raising some interesting questions about humanity. Some of the question raised are: What is Love? What is the difference between Love and liking or spoiling someone? What is to be a mother? Does giving birth to a child automatically makes you a mother? Is it possible not to love your child? In an if scenario about clones with powers that danger humanity, how will humanity react?
It makes you think, it makes you wonder. It leaves you with questions after you finish it.
Art:
Art is really good, it focuses a lot on details, which i really like in a manga.
Enjoyment:
Well, this depends on how much you like psychologically themes. There are a lot of discussions here, mostly about science. It may be a little tiring for someone not used with these topics. It has some metaphysics topics too. I personally enjoyed it a lot.
Overall:
This manga is a treasure in this planet. Close to a masterpiece but in my opinion not really achieving it. Nonetheless it is indeed a must read manga.
