Right off the bat, I'd like to go ahead and just say this is probably not the kind of manga for a large majority of users on this site, especially younger ones. For one, it's likely that it's tagged entirely incorrectly, since I'd much sooner give it the tags of fantasy drama but potato, potahto, no? All that being said: this one is a rather unique read.

Imagine handing your good old book of Peter Rabbit into Tim Burton's hands and asking him to add to it. Then get rid of any stripes or Halloween decorations he might've put in, sprinkle it with some depth, and you basically got this.

Though there is no end nor sequel yet in sight (the updates are fairly slow), it is worth the read for the air of serenity it creates and the drama it still manages to mix in. The world built in the story is just a tiny bit complex at times, enough so as to cook up the story further but aside from that, the focus is majorly on the two main characters and their relationship, as they go through the trials of life they've chosen together - the life they, in fact, shouldn't spend together.

The art is the part which caught my eye initially, since it's a mix of accurate beauty and messy detail that I honestly find better than most manga. Again, that being said, the art doesn't resemble your typical manga, so if you're hoping for any kind of beauty or cuteness you'd find in, say, moe style of K-On! or Your Lie in April, you're likely be disappointed - the art is quite more realistic than that.

I end this review with nothing but praise for this manga. It isn't action packed, it doesn't appeal to readers with pandering content or sexual appeal, and it lacks any cliches typical for this media you can imagine. Though much might be turned away by that, I honestly find that to be the main reasons I love it so much.
