Once the pieces start merging it is really heart touching. You would expect great action from a manga like this and certainly it delivers, however the emotinos I have felt with this manga are really something. You become really attached to these characters over their individual stories and relations. That said, to be fully understood and for this manga to deliver that emotional punch it needs a reread or at least it needs you to take in consideration every detail and also every name (there are way too many characters names). The art is mesmerizing as it really stands out from the generic mangas, the designs are fantastic, the monsters really terryfying and creative, the relations between characters are beautiful and probably the strongest point of the manga.
Just to point out the negatives :
- Some images and crude situations are way too graphic as well as some really uncomfortable material taking in account character ages.
- There are really a lot of secondary characters with relevance to the plot and so, one must learn way too many names in order to realize many important events.
