I was a little skeptical when I started reading this manga, but it is really heartwarming. People need to read the manga for what it is. The story is about a group of friends who wish they could’ve saved their friend. That is the premise. That is what the manga revolves around. The concept is very unique and I have never read a manga like this.

Of course, there are flaws. I wish the sci-fi theme could have went a little bit deeper. In my opinion, there was not much character development. Naho didn’t have much of a personality, but the other characters balanced that out and it made for an enjoyable read. The other three friends just were not memorable though. I remember Naho, Kakeru, and Suwa. Don’t ask me what the others names are.

I love anything that deals with mental health. This manga did an okay job with it. Kakeru’s feelings were very much realistic. How it was dealt with is where I was side-eyeing the manga.

Overall, there’s a strong plot but the characters are lacking.
