The series is made for adults with a lot of sex scenes. Even though the overall feeling is sad for this manga, there are many light-hearted moments involving food. The author symbolizes food as hope for these two characters. The food scenes depicted throughout the manga will surely make you crave. The art and writing are very strong.
The whole manga has melancholy and mysterious feelings looming over it. Both characters do not reveal their secrets and the reason for wanting to commit suicide at the beginning. As they bind over the trip, gradually, they (and we) learn about their struggle, history, and tragedies. As a reader, I traveled with the characters, learned their personal stories, and became attached to them. In the end, the incredibly sorrowful histories of the two made their eventual triumph extra sweet. This is one of the best romance manga I have ever read.
