	Definitely interesting.

This one isn't as good as ASHINANO Hitoshi's mainstay YKK, but it still deserves to be praised as at least very close to master level. The knowledge about planes and aviation is real, and further implementation of slightly fantastic sci fi (if you can call it science fiction, since a caravan of transport planes is quite possible, but just not done) adds the typical ASHINANO Hitoshi mystic to the whole thing. I'd just hope that the chapters came more frequently... Well, the time invested just improves it all. I hope.

	Great after YKK

I've heard that Ashinano really loves planes, and he spent his youth studying to go into business with them. That can be seen somewhat in YKK, but it really shows in Kabu no Isaki. Personally, I'm not much for planes at all, but Kabu no Isaki was so beautiful I had to change my opinion at least for the short amount of time I was in this strange timeless version of the modern world.

	It's not fast paced but...

...it has a nice "every-day-life" kind of feel to it. Add to that the knowledge that it is set in an alternate future (If there is such a thing) and it's a very good one-shot to sit back with and forget about the real world around you.
