It's been years since I have felt so compelled to write a review but this manga is nothing short of amazing.

The one word that sums Bokura no Kiseki up perfectly is Solid. Although a boring word at first, not many series can pull off being such an enjoyable read whilst still maintaining such a high quality of thought, art, plot line and character development.

The storyline is not something I have seen in many other series. It's an interesting blend of mystery, fantasy and action, all while taking place in the modern setting of a typical Japanese high school. It's also quite nice to see that despite having some elements of romance, the author does a good job of putting it on the back burner in favour of advancing the more meaty parts of the plot. Despite being a huge fan of romance myself, it's refreshing to read a series that doesn't prioritize romance like the usual manga or anime. Now as for the actually plot, despite the main setting taking place in a high school, students of a particular homeroom slowly begin to discover that they were all reincarnations of a group of people that once lived in the same castle, with the heads of the castle being Prince Eugene and Princess Veronica. After recollecting all their memories, they realize that their past lives all died due to a war between the Prince and Princess' peoples. Despite once being enemies, they begin to all work together to figure out exactly what happened in the past and who betrayed who.

What really shines about this manga is the character development of both the main and supporting characters. Everybody first begins by being a joyful happy go lucky team of classmates but as the characters begin remembering moments from their past, you can see the great toll that it takes on them both mentally and emotionally, as it should. Many people who were once friends become enemies; happy people begin to become more somber like their old personalities; and feelings of loyalty, hatred, love, and admiration come out of no where. It's amazing to watch each character deal with this significant change and how they slowly learn to not ignore or succumb to their old personalities, but to coexist with them as a new person.

What's amazing about this manga as well is how real each character is portrayed. Nobody is made out to be a martyr or a villain. They're just human; each character has their ups and downs, and their bad qualities along with their good. Paired with the plot of how the antagonist stays in the shadows the whole time, it makes discovering who the antagonist that much more thrilling. On top of that, the author has an amazing way of making the reader go on an utterly convincing goose hunt. Some characters that you once thought were good, you slowly begin to suspect. Other characters that you thought were definitely bad, are revealed to be good. Some that were good become bad and then good again and vice versa. It's absolutely amazing how intricate the plot is whist still being incredibly easy to understand. I can verify myself, as a certified idiot.

There's not much to comment on the Art. It's very simple but still pleasing to the eye. Characters are easily differentiated from one another, despite the author making fun of how confusion would arise if the characters were to get a hair cut. But otherwise, the art is a great compliment to the amazing plot and even more amazing characters.

Although I'm not a huge fan of fantasy, I have no regrets picking this manga up. It was a thrilling adventure for my mind to follow and it's a read that I highly, highly recommend.
