Wow honestly this manga impressed me quite a fair bit with it's storytelling. The twists and turns is honestly something I DID NOT expect even from this manga making it all the more enjoyable. The manga starts off with our mc dying and believing his childhood friend Chiaki was the reason he died. The story peels away like a onion as we get to see many diverse characters fleshed out in only 16 chapters which was really impressive for me while still pushing the plot forward. The pacing was surprisingly good for a short manga such as this one. You wouldn't feel overwhelmed by how thestory goes by and still feel in tact and attached to the interesting characters. The suspense atmosphere is well done for the first few chapters as you are able to feel the surreal and tense moments in the manga. Art itself is pretty decent , don't really have much to say on this. The characters are what pulled me in for this story , the author managed to put several characters in and manage to do them well. We get to delve into the different perspectives of the characters while explore their backstory to how they become who they are today which is again pretty astounding and remarkable of the author since this only has 16 chapters. You get to see their struggles and how they all play a part to what happened in the manga making all of them relevant to the story. To conclude i would highly recommend this manga to anyone who loves twist and turns. This manga has interesting characters and a satisfying ending to fill your needs.
