Synopsis

"Seven years ago, I killed a man."

Kazuma Waku murdered the man who drove his little sister Yuri to suicide. For that crime, he spent seven years in prison. No matter how much time passes, he can't forget the face of that man dying. However, nothing lingers moreso than the image of that man's daughter, who witnessed her father's murder. Tormented by guilt, Kazuma resolves to make amends by dying.

On the day his mother picked him up from prison, Kazuma went to visit his sister's grave. There, he saw a familiar girl's face.

This is the story of a murderer and the daughter of his victim, a tale rife with drama and suspense.

There's something special about this kind of uncomfortable story.

Yes, I got into it because the premise was disturbing. It seems like such an interesting plot description, and something not many could even DARE to touch upon. Not in the “this is a disturbing manga” category, I've read a fair share of those. This one feels much rawer.

It's a situation loads have thought about. “What if somebody was the cause of a family member's death?”, to which many would answer, “I'd kill them” without much of a second thought. What about afterward? What comes after the crime, after harming that which ruined your life? Well, the ... manga starts there. The MC decided to kill his sister's rapist in front of his little daughter. Twisted to no end, questioning everything about the event, and questioning if authorities should've put their hand there. It questions killing for vengeance, and the things that happen after are EVEN more interesting.

These people are linked forever, whether they like it or not. We go from such a tragic event, and such a challenge to the readers, to how both the MC and the little daughter develop something you can't just describe easily. Both need each other to live, to exist within the face of the earth. An objective, they cling to the idea that they can survive if they have each other, even if each of them believes they took everything from each other.

I loved this manga, not just for how it tackles its events, but how people unpredictably, but logically react to the surrounding situations. The feelings of guilt, suicidal tendencies, symbiosis, purpose, forgiveness, SELF forgiveness. It's a small manga, which could be made into an incredible animated film. While writing this, I felt the manga might've been a little overdramatic with some scenes, but man… you can't just assume these people can be that rational. This event marked their lives, and they're willing to die at any point if something changes in a single day. Living day to day, wishing for an answer to live or die in that day. How could I even begin to comprehend the implications of that? Well, I remembered well-lost memories. Memories I thought were gone.

Every character was perfect, and each event they lived through makes sense at every point. It got a little too shocking at times, reminding me that even after I've read so much disturbing stuff, there's still whiplash for an implication that goes far from what I expected.

Little mention on the art. Reminded me of Chainsaw-Man in its kind of… sketchiness? With so much beauty at the rawest points of emotion. The portraits of people suffering from the aftermath of an action. Their face, the perspective around them warping as they realize, it's always about realizing. There's so much meat in this small story.

This manga truly brings out emotions I couldn't describe. As I was seeing the characters evolutions, I felt something beyond the scope of the manga. Something I felt with “A Silent Voice”, and “Three Days of Happiness”. The willingness to change, and the power to look at yourself and agree, for once, that you wish to see the sun rise tomorrow, even if you didn't feel that a day before.

Watching characters bounce around their will to live was very upsetting, and a reminder to allow ourselves to be happy, even if we blame ourselves for other's unhappiness.

9.4/10. What a ride, and so quick too.

Preliminary (13/16 eps)

I did put recommended, but this manga isn't for everyone. As you can tell from the synopsis, it's quite dark with the themes of sexual assault, suicide, murder, guilt. etc. The manga itself has very raw art, not in a bad way. It's kind of reminiscent of old chainsaw man art with thin lines and rough sketches.

There is a lot of emotion packed into the manga, but it feels very blunt and shoved in your face, instead of slowly developing into something that could make you shed tears. Not that it can't, but at the pace that the manga goes, it's just like watching ...

Preliminary (5/16 eps)

When I read the summary of this story, I was quite captivated by it and figured it would be another amazing dark manga which covered some adult themes and hopefully a story where we see a person overcome such horrible difficulties.

The crime he committed and the reason behind it was covered too fast and the moment you take a second to think about it, it just doesn't make any sense. It left me feeling like the author just half-assed it.
While there are only a few chapters so far, they move at a really fast momentum, not giving much time to process the things that are ...
