| Literally the perfect ending for this series! |
"Humans are like isolated islands, floating in the sea of fate. Human encounters are like the collision of these lonely islands, and once they touch, there would be an effect. Sometimes, the islands would stick together, in the name of ‘interest’, ‘kinship’, ‘friendship’, ‘love’ and ‘hate’. But eventually, they would separate, walking towards the path of destruction. This is the truth behind life." -Fang Yuan |
| Can't believe the translations ended in 2021, I was expecting 2027 at best with the pacing the old group had lmao. Solid finale to a very neat manga, glad to finally be able to see how it ended. |

| Ending was good, but the journey to get there definitely wasn't as good as I hoped. In general though, the whole series didn't age for me that well but at least it did admittedly end on a strong note, happy for everyone for sure with how their lives turned out to be after the immense struggles and issues they had in their lives from the past. I might go with a 4-5 for this series. |
| I enjoyed the manga up until the last few volumes. Wtf really happened. Why did it have to go so bad. It is the death of Sakuragi all over again. Poor choices were made and they suffered the consequences again. At least Ruriko and Mario could have ended up together but no, she ended up with the most random person. And a new main character introduced just for the last 16 chapters. Bullshit. It was really a 9/10 work if not for last 30-40 chapters, where it started to get boring and random. Shame. |

| Great, but was honestly expecting more since it's often praised so highly... My main gripe would be it being essentially a 'fantasy' manga.. not in literal sense, but in a sense of everything happening 'just because'. It's fun to read, but too many things happened way too conveniently, not making much sense.. Killing off Sakuragi felt heavily forced... Keeping Mario alive was heavily forced... Nearly every literal action sequence felt a bit over the top. It's a fun read despite those flaws, but can't rate it higher than an 8/10 on the weak side of 8. |
| The manga was really depressing and honestly hard to read at times as the boys kept getting knocked back again and again. Poor Heitai even spent years in prison :'( but overall it was a brilliant story and personally a more enjoyable take on the unbending friendship and loyalty troupe used in other manga. There were aspects I didn't like such as how the arc with the American thugs ended but honestly that takes nothing away from how well the main 7 were written and developed throughout. Seeing them all grow and eventually attain their own happiness was really nice. Even Sakota's mini story at the end was beautiful. I loved the main guys and their friends ^^ |

| Pretty good ending worth the read overall. Main: Suppon > Heitai (My favorite) > Baramoto > Joe > Mario > Cabbage + Suppon was from the start a real one despite having the toughest backstory of them all.. he kept on helping his boys every time. + Heitai x Meg was perfect.. also taking the blame at the end was too good. + Baramoto he's the brain of the group.. saved them almost every time with his plans. + Joe he's ok.. after his sister arc.. he vanished partly. + Mario he's cool but so many things went wrong specially the mushroom arc, rurika & the very end. + Cabbage doesn't feel like a main character.. him x rurika wth.. lol Support: Sugi > Meg > Lily = Tanaka > Iwasaki >>> Rurika > Vera >>>>>> Setsuko + Sugi the wise old man.. developed the best character in the show Suppon & helped the 2nd best girl Lily make her dream true. + Meg x Heitai was perfect & she's a keeper (5 years waiting damn) + Lily x Tanaka was a nice touch on the ending.. they helped the main party a lot thro and thro. + Iwasaki good character development.. also saved 4 of the main party. - Rurika she was funny, helpful & good partner for mario but the mushroom arc came and ruined her.. disappointing.. oh and her x cabbage was out of nowhere. - Vera +1 for stealing Setsuko's mushroom. -- Setsuko the biggest disappointment of them all.. she was great up until anchan's death.. then she chose the mushroom guy over Mario..which lead to the mushroom arc then she put herself in danger voluntary leading to almost everyone getting killed, Mario's injuries & Heitai jail time. 8.5/10 for the really good parts. |
| So i finally manage to finish this one. And I loved! First of all Heitai is the best character in this series, i was a little disappoint in the first half because he was basically big guy full muscle, but after his mission arc he got so much spot light. Also Hetai x Meg was great and i felt so sad that he got arrested for 5 years, but i think it was interesting that he ended as a sexy guard in the Reformatory. Cabbage x Rurika was so come of nowhere that i don't know what to say lol Tanaka needs his own series, too underused character and i loved that he ended with Lily, both best support characters. Mario was ok to good during all series, his is like very good boy so he is the protagonist for most part. I liked his development fully on the box side. Joe should have had one more arc to proper develop him, i think after the shit that happened that almost killed Cabbage his character was done. The same to Baremoto, but he is smart and always involved so it is ok. Suppon also have his moments and i am happy that he became really rich. The one thing i dislike was of course the Americans arc, it was stupid long, a lot of unnecessary change of events and the villains were most forgettable. i give a 9.5/10 because i think the last arc / epilogue was great. Sakota character arc was short but good, it worked nice for a final development and fulfill the promise for our main characters. |
| Just finished this incredible manga and would HIGHLY recommend it to anyone. First of all the panel art is absolutely amazing. Story-wise, gripping from start to finish. Felt myself tearing up multiple times. Genuinely love the characters and the bond they shared. Felt very "Japanese male bonding" manga with very Japanese-youth ideals about pride and brotherhood. But it was a very sympathetic look at those on the fringe of society, even in Japanese culture. Surprised about the respectful handling of Jimmy and Jane. And it had a lot of respect for the strength of female characters and how the boys supported them and saw them as capable. Many of the secondary characters were fantastic. Always satisfying to see the boys triumph in a situation by outsmarting someone or kicking someone's ass. Like most people here I think the last arc with the American scammers was probably the weakest. I do also really wish they showed us any hint that Setsuko and Mario became a thing; feels a bit needlessly tragic to kill off the husband she initially picked over Mario, and then at the very end to say she's a single mom who supports herself by being a nurse for the one doctor. Just needed that one last satisfying push to have Mario show up at her doorstep at the very end or something! But alas I get it, not showing us is kind of in line with the Japanese themes and mystique of manly wandering. Also, wish we just got a bit more of Joe and Cabbage overall. Minor gripes aside, so glad I experienced this manga. |
| Everything after the prologue was just so uninteresting and cheesy. That prologue is one of the best for sure though and Rokurouta one of the 🐐. 5/10 |

| A great ending for all the character but speaking honestly, this manga would've been just as good, if not better if they had just ended the manga after Megu's arc. Literally everyone was happy at that point, Setsuko included. There was no need for the last two arcs. |
