Ok, first of all i just wanna to say that it's been a long time there are manga that got me fully absorbed in the story.So when i finished reading this manga, i'm so worked up. If it's an anime, i will absolutely going to rewatch it repeatedly. But it is still difficult for me to reread this manga, the reason behind it is only because the climax is so intense and my heart is not strong enough to experience it again.
Leave the every part scoring for later. I will give a review about overall of this manga. SO SKIP IF U DONT WANT TO GOT SPOILER.
When i just read this manga, i was thought, "ah... this going to be a cliche comedy romance ecchi story". The story is about a man who love his childhood friend and then someone come interfere their love story. Well, i just continue read it a few chapter forward.
There are some things that catch my eye, like curses and a few other things. But, omething/someone that catch my attention most is Jindou Hikari. She's a mysterious girl with full of unknown thing whose come up with her. It is the only thing that tickle my soul. It is also the reason why im stay and withstand to keep reading this manga. My feeling says that there is something with this girl, and with this manga. And then I'm grateful for trusting my instincts.
I always think, "the best story is a story that makes you thinking about what coming up next." And they did it. The author have succeeded in making such stories. The story escalated to the extent that no one will expect the story will. Slowly, the story going more and more serious with one thing and another come adding the trouble.Something unexpected keeps going until the climax, when all of layered plot pile up until i unconsciously said, "what the f*ck,man", when the unexpected turns occurred.
Well, that is explained a lot about this manga. Then letss proceed to the explanation of every part of scoring.
Story
Actually it's hard for me to give 10 score to the story section. The beginning of this story is feel too much of fantasy and something irrational. But well i never againts how the story start. The important thing is how the author develop the story. Then proceed to the some chapter next, the story start to intersting. There are endless mystery that makes the reader want to solve it. In the middle of the story, it's feel like slow to move and tend to repeat the same thing. But the thing that the story keep goes on make it still readable.
In short is, i want to give 9/10 to the story score because of there still holes in here and there. But, that ending is sooooo siiiiicckkkk!!! So, i know it's not my usual to include my own feeling in the scoring that should be become objectives thing, but well, i'll give it 10/10 scores.
Art
10/10. U know why if you read it :v
Character
Same as the story. It doesn't goes that superb in the beginning. But, how the character develop is fairly good for me. If there is someone who dislike the character inside this story, well i dont against the way you are judging. But i just want to remember you guys one thing, "Remember people in reality". These people in here is behave as like how normal people did. Don't say they aren't, just because the story is not normal. Well, it's a supernatural story, so yes, it wouldn't be normal story. Just thought as if you are in those 'unnormal' and think how you will behave. And don't forget everyone has different personality.
Nakagawa Kouki, he sometime has indecisive side that might makes the reader mad at him. Sometimes he fall into the dirty thought when he got teased. But he still persist and not just going out with every woman that teased him. He's not a good main character, is it really like that? Guys, think about it. A guy who devoted his life just for woman. Well yeah he sometimes fall for temptation, he is normal healthy young man. But still, he vowed himself just the one who he love. How can that not be so romantic? When sometimes he waver, but when he make up his mind, he will go and even confront the world if he need to do it.
Fujisaki Ayumi, she wearing mask because her trauma. Sometimes u just can't forgive yourself from what you have done. And here she is, doing the same thing with what normal people will do.
Jindou Hikari, she is mysterious woman that begin with no emotion, then gradually getting some expression, learning how others feels, and finally learn about love and how much trouble it is.
Konoe Tenshi, someone who just wanna to live. She just wanna feel how to live like other people do. With some effect of the 'live' she got, her personality come to change, but she still try to stay as same person.
I think dream-like character is good, but character that suited with reality is the best.
Enjoyment
9/10. It has fluctuated enjoyment. Hard to enjoy in the beginning, start to enjoy the story, a bit of boring in the middle, then BOOM in the climax event
Overall
Because i'm the one who score a story only based the how the 'story' is feels, so the overall is not that different with it. I was thinking about give it 9/10 because the 'holes' in the story, but well i like this story. So it is too meanie for me to not give my favorites story a 10 scores. So then, it is how it is.
