Now for the review i went into the manga expecting a dramatic coming of age reflections on human existence type of story and thats what you get but only for the first volume the first volume of this manga was excellent one of my favorite single volumes of manga of all time but like i saw someone else say in the reviews here it really does start off strong but end with a whimper the second volume is filled with side storys and characters that dont add anything to the story in the end and the storyline which was in volume one almost completely comes to an end except for the last chapter and even that ends pretty bad and ambiguous

To call it a slice of life space odyssey would cheapen the depth of this mangas scope

Only complaint is that the book came damaged with the corner of the book all bent up
