Fantastic manga. Some people will be put off by its premise and rather controversial nature.

While I don't fault them, I do want to note they're missing out. The longer the series goes on, the more apparent it becomes that the focus in 'Asako' lies way beyond the taboo/immorality. In fact, the controversial aspect eventually gets shoved off to uncover the real depth of the story.

The manga is presented in a fast passed way, with each chapter following Asako, Masashi and the supporting characters through a variety of misadventures, result of the atics of some mean kids. The author doesn’t allow us to catch our breath, with each chapter proceeding was if it was being wanted, but with enough clarity of a seinen and drama-based plot. Antsy (feeling uncomfortable with a series of situations - like an itch) with the author ...
