Toumei Ningen no Hone (The Bones Of An Invisible Person) drew me in primarily because of one chapter, I picked a random one to get a feel of the story and my first impression was that the mangaka new exactly when to stop talking and let the art tell the story.
The dialogue has meaning and weight behind it despite it having quite little in some chapters, but its that precision story telling that makes the story feel more sincere.

The art is very well drawn and the fantasy element is well fleshed out in a plot development way as apposed to being a means to an ... end to progress the story it felt like a real person experiencing the phenomena.

Metaphorically I feel the story is one of depression and how to overcome it, each character acts like a part of the author debating with themselves and non of it feels edgy or done to create drama. the whole thing just has a nice flow to it and its easy to read in one sitting.

Overall its a very well written story that floats on the line between sadness, melancholy and happiness. What these mean to the characters based on their world view and how to confront yourself. be that in the form of self punishment, aspirations or helping others.
