It's an intense drama-manga really.
And the characters are very engaging.
I actually finished these 12 volumes in a row
I don't know why but I feel heart-wrenched after finishing it.
Especially Shion's. I agree, he's not that great, and he seemed to deny his feelings until the end, perhaps caused by incredible loneliness and the inability to receive and perceive love, which I found really really painful. And that really gets me.

I've read up until the third volume but stopped. I've heard rave reviews about this series but the first three volumes haven't been that engaging. The story itself is fine, but the problem I have with the manga so far is the characters Rin and Arisu. Rin is an annoying selfish brat, and Arisu is total pushoever - there's a limit to how nice one should be. All the other characters are very engaging, but it is unfortunate that the two "main" ones are so annoying. In addition
If someone can tell me that the characters change or become more engaging in future volumes, I'll definitely have another crack at it, but at the moment two characters are keeping me from enjoying this manga.
Spoiler (highlight to view)
Shion isn't all that great either. Sure he was wronged (but even we don't know if Shuukuidan's actions were intentional) by Shuukuidan, but to go to that extent to get revenge on him in the next life is is reprehensible.

Honestly, I didn't intend to read this. I was just interested in the reincarnation thing. But it got me hooked before the first two chapters ended, something that never happened with kanata kara (which is dragging on too long for me making me read this series), or any other 'before-90's-scifi-manga'. I can't wait to finish it and see how the whole thing unravels. I think 12 volumes is too short but oh well. ^_^
Edit" I just finished it and I must admit it was one fo the best ever. seriously. like the past played a big role, it was revealed one by one yet it made sense, Shion was such a pitiful character. Mokuren was a great character who affected all of them. Ahh simply great

at first, i just read it to kill some time, but something about the manga made it...really interesting in a way. It's art had improved subtly throughout the series, and, although, it may seem simple at first, the drawings were actually quite complex and fun to look at.
The plot was complex and interesting, but it wasn't the type of plot, where, you had to go back and think "Ok...so who was this person with again...??"
The story just kind of grows on you.
I also love how it isn't just about Sakaguchi, and how, more than half the story, it's about the other characters and how they dealt with everything both in past and present.
Well, I probably didn't make much sense, but I definitely recomment this series.

Well, this is one of those mangas you go , "What the heck?" and then a second later you go, "How interesting."
Its pretty good though. I Particularly like the fantasy part. Shion is officially my favorite character. =D

love love love love love love love love love love love it.It's really subtle with the plot of the characters in the future that are introduced and focused on for like 2 volumes - which kinda gets unnerving. The background story with Shion and Mokuren, etc. though is really interesting, and it draws you into the plot so well in the last few volumes. The problem with this series is that while the background story leaves a huge impression on the audience, the future/present story does not, so it feels like 60% of the story is just a side-story.
I really love this manga, The plot and story line are one of the best i ever read, this is one of my favorites.

how does she do it? the mangaka is amazing. and yea, the plot is really intense. there's still alot i didn't understand though...for example, like why did they reincarnate if the earth was already saved by _______!
i mean i can get why mokuren and shoin reincarnated...it was to see each other...but what about the rest..
Another thing i dont get is...what happens next. i suppose they dont continue to reincarnate...cos they're already 'set free' to the atmosphere?
lol, this is what happens when you're too excited and skim every sentence.
overall, i think its a great story and definitely worth reading. its true the art is kinda old...and the beginning is weird (well, i thought so)...dinosaurs on the first page -_-"" you'll see.

great characters and intense story, so I couldn't ask for more! The art work gets better as you get more into it which is a plus. Definately worth a read when you have free time on your hands.
I'm in agreement with Dragonfiremule with Shion, he officially became one of my favorite characters. Although he ties in closely with Rin (who I think is very cute!
