Synopsis

Suffering from a terminal illness, Yuuta's mother asks him to film her last moments, which he does. From her radiant smile when she is with her family to the times when sickness ravages her body in the hospital, he records hours upon hours of footage. After her passing, Yuuta compiles her life into a movie to screen at his school, deciding to add a bit of fantasy to the ending of his film, Dead Explosion Mother, with a literal explosion!

Following the backlash caused by his supposedly tone-deaf portrayal of his mother's death, Yuuta trudges to the hospital roof to take his own life—but there, he meets a girl named Eri. Captivated by his film, Eri requests Yuuta to make a new one that will blow the previous out of the water and prove his critics wrong. The movie they set out to make will stand apart by blurring the line between fact and fiction. And of course, it wouldn't be a Yuuta film if it didn't have his personal flavor—just a dash of fantasy.

TL;DR: Fujimoto needs to go to therapy just so we can get more of this.

Story

Brave take here, but this has got to be Fujimoto's Magnum Opus. Was it a bit paint by the number googoo gaagaa? A bit. But it was done amazingly.

The man straight up avoided the 5 stages of grief by saying "nah, id win".

Art

Fujimoto's art is unique. The man is on another level with this one. It does look like most of his other works to me, but that's the best thing. Once you read all the other looks to the same as the last and you come read ANY of ...

Total: 6,225 -> 6

Story – 5/10
Goodbye, Eri’s story is just average. It isn’t bad, but it just isn’t good per se. At a certain point, the story looked like it had reached its climax, with a sudden twist of faith that would have been great if it had actually been true. Instead, the story ended in a less fashionable manner. This story is a one-shot, and ...

This manga is kind of a metafiction, a bad one, however. The plot is absurd just for the sake of it, with the weightless and poorly thought out twists being the worst. Art is nothing to write home about. I'd even say it's lazy, given how like 10 panels in a row have the same background, with only bubble text changing. I mean, yeah, artistic decision and whatnot, except the conversations are also dull. It's either pretend humor or make-believe philosophy. Characters are bland, no progression whatsoever. No real comedy or drama. No romance either.

All it has is uniqueness. Read if you are new to ...
