There are very few manga which leave me speechless fortunately No Longer Human ranks as one of those and as my favourite manga. There have been cases for example Berserk, Gantz and 20th Century Boys but even they pale in comparison to the genius of Osamu Dazai.

It describes the tale of a nilhistic man who finds it difficult to show himself to others thus puts on a facade. It is a story about his life and how is gets to where he is and what occurs on the way.

Based on Ozamu Dazai's famous novel, it hits home and makes you empathise with a sex crazed sociopath. After reading this I guarantee that melancholy will overwhelm you and that you will be glad to have read it.

I would continue trying to persuade you to read this but I shall let you decide as I promise you that you won't regret picking up the 3 volumes.
