Story: 8/10
4 persons (3 students and a teacher) meet in the school chat room. They all blame the school as the source of their problems, so they decide to blow it up. As the characters get to know each other, they begin to realize that their problems are situated in other aspects of life as well, not just from the school. They start to help each other to deal with the problems. 'Loneliness' is a very important part of the story. Art: 9/10 The art fits the serious theme; no chibis, no overdrawn gestures or expressions.

But it definetly says something that I actually turned out the light, then turned it back on, walked over to the shelf and pulled Volume two off because I HAD HAD HAD to know what happened. The story and characters in this story are outstanding - read more
I enjoyed it too much.
In general I do not like the genre to which the manga belongs, I thought that some repetitive themes would happen, it was not like that, is no the opposite. Aesthetically it is not very attractive and it seems like some 90's generic manga tha can drop to trash. It was not necessary some terrible or incredible events to identify me with the characters, tthe simplest things were the ones who made me remember and see myself in the characters. the little things that we do to ourselves are the ones that prevent us from moving forward and it is these very little things read more
Okay so this is my first review so please bear with me.
