At first, you might think it’s fluffy, but Junko has a surprising way of inserting dark elements without breaking the tone... The story has it’s equal parts and Junko doesn’t try to hit you too hard with tension and it all seems very natural. I really like how Chihiro’s perception of Akira is a bit exaggerated around the edges about certain events that happened in their childhood (like what children do) and how the two of them both have to take a closer look at themselves so they could see the other better.
There are some flaws, the story line of the characters is very much a cliché. So cliché things happen a lot and the story is predictable, but it’s still rather enjoyable.
The characters are well designed and a have a unique look to them. I mean other than her uniquely fresh style, she doesn’t have what I like to call Yuu Watase Syndrome, where all the characters look the same even if they are not the same at all. Though, in regards to style, they don’t look their age. Chihiro is going to University, but they look very much like the two of them would be going to high school together.
Overall, it’s a good manga to spare the time, I don’t know if I’ll read it again, but I might if it crosses my path.
