Don't listen to comment before me by Cloudstruckk on September 7th, 2010, 10:37pm

This is has amazing story that about how would you never should give up no matter what happen,
Miracle that comes along when you determined to make your dreams come true,
The art is nice and original,

Clearly this is not an action manga that exciting there, exciting this,
This is more a slice of like manga feeling that make an deep impression to its reader,
Thus this is another amazing work by the mangaka that definitely worth your time reading it

I shake my head in disagreement by halberdian on July 23rd, 2009, 7:35am

First time I saw the thumbnail on KEFI homepage, I am interested to read. But after few minutes download and few minutes reading, the manga's unsatisfactory.

The art's neat, and the style's simple; I like it. But the story isn't exciting at all, let alone moving (kind of story I seek in oneshoots). The flaw this story has is that there are some unexpected act that can be judged as oversimplified; and I don't like it. However, once I see that this oneshoot is shounen manga, I can immediately excuse its weakness, since I am a seinen/josei reader; little guy literature never be expected to match my need.

Beautiful! by Xochie on June 1st, 2008, 8:40pm

Yes, it's a great story of hope and how as you grow up, you lose your dreams and you realise some of the things you dreamed for are impossible. Yet in this story the childish innocence is amazing and it really touched me with 45 pages!

Agreed. by Twilight_Moon on May 17th, 2008, 5:18pm

All I can say is that I agree with the other two statements. It's a story of regaining hope and of misconceptions of the world. A cheerful story and an amazing oneshot.

Wow by Xeronia on May 2nd, 2008, 8:26pm

I have to say, this was simply amazing. The plot itself isn't realistic and could never happen, but everything else about it was well-developed. What it showed more than anything else was the "cheery tone" (look at previous comment) that one finds in youth, and which disappears with age. The only reason I did not rate it a 10/10 was because there was one serious scene that was so cliche, I burst out laughing.

Amazing... by HucSao on April 16th, 2008, 3:26pm

This has a very good plot about reaching ones goals. The logic used to support the troubles presented is not sturdy, but it is very realistic in showing how humans feel about calamity and apocalypes-type happenings. Overall it has a nice cheery story with a somewhat serious tone. It's one of the very few oneshots that really made an impact on me. You should read it. I highly recommend it. smile
