This story brought up some interesting questions about film editing, memory, legacy, life, and grief.
The tinge of fantasy and unreliable narrator helped contribute to the mystery of the whole story.

Okay, firstly, this is a tearjerker, NOT an action-packed fantasy like Chainsaw Man like I was expecting, and I loved it.

This was a heartbreaking read and I was definitely crying throughout the majority of the book. The reflections on death, dying, grief and memory were so unique and beautiful, I want a copy of this for myself so I can go back, re-read, and contemplate living with dying.

10/10! Full Marks! 100,000 Points! 💖🌟 I laughed, I cried, and I was gagged several times while reading this manga! 😆 This will definitely go on my list of books I think everyone should read at some point in their life! It’s fascinating the way Fujimoto blurs the lines between fiction and reality. Just when you think you know what’s going on and where the story’s going you find out that you actually don’t. 

There is such interesting commentary on life, death, the way we chose to remember the ones we lost, and how sometimes the memories we chose to keep and the way we view people through those memories blur the lines between reality and fiction. I’m not gonna say anymore than that though because I think everyone should go into this manga blind and experience it for themselves. ❤️🩵🩶🤍
