Story - 10/10
This manga is unique af. The plot itself is a spoiler so I will just say that it talks about 4 friends that make a terrible mistake that will haunt them for the rest of their lives.

Art - 8.2/10
The art is good. Nothing spectacular but it fits the story very well and the facial expression are amazing. The paneling is very creative as well.

Characters - 9.5/10
Bokutachi Ga Yarimashita has fantastic characters. They don't have the most fascinating ideologies and they are not based on only one character trait. They are simply immature humans living life. Tobio is the main character and he enjoys living his everyday life that is somewhat fun but when this everyday life disappears he questions how he was living his whole life and goes through some amazing development. Paisen is rich college dropout who doesn't have any friends that's why he hangs out with high school kids. He uses money to make friends and have fun but deep inside he is an empty man looking for love. His character arc is phenomenal full of surprises and very entertaining. Maru is a very special character. Through him the author portrays hidden human desires that can be awaken in situations when you don't know what to do. His characterization is great and without him the story wouldn't be the same. We also have Isami who is a great character like everyone else. He doesn't stand out as much as the others but his character arc is very enjoyable and well done. There are some other characters like Renko and Isami's girlfriend(forgot her name but she is great. I think she is called Ayoi or something) who are very well written. Ichihashi is another fantastic character that I don't want to talk about because his character arc was surprising and phenomenal.

Enjoyment - 10/10
This is one of the most entertaining and unforgettable experiences ever for me. Brilliant storytelling, fantastic pacing and timing with grotesque and out of place humor that fit the story so well. I couldn't stop reading it. I read it in two sittings because I had stuff to do but this could easily be binged in one. I also have to mention that this manga made me cry like a bitch. Bokutachi Ga Yarimashita is a rollercoaster of emotions. Imo the saddest scene I have ever experienced in fiction is in this manga.

Overall - 10/10
It has some little issues here and there but reading Bokutachi Ga Yarimashita was enough a phenomenal experience to make me overlook those. Even though I haven't read a lot, this quickly became my favorite manga ever and 2nd favorite piece of fiction of all time, Second to only Gintama. Overall Bokutachi Ga Yarimashita is peak psychological entertainment and even though its not going to be for everyone, I think you should at least give it a try. An absolute masterpiece in my book.
