I generally enjoy stories based on people trying to overcome death. But this one just falls far short in terms of execution. Characters have inconsistent or boring motivations, the art is of questionable quality, the action doesn't flow well from panel to panel, there are even jarring interruptions and changes of scene between chapters as well as in the middle of single chapters, and so on.

If you like the premise of someone trying to save their sibling from death, don't read this; read the magnificent manga Fullmetal Alchemist instead.

Don't people know that when the description is retarded, many people will not want to read it? Why does it say they're a typical brother and sister they couldn't be farther from that? It seems like 90% of these types of manga have "normal" people then their lives are turned upside-down. It's always "an average guy" or "a normal teenager" and those generic manga are the reason why it'll never be popular anywhere else but Asia (popular enough to make a profit selling them), especially the USA. We've had enough comics based on a normal person having something crazy happen to them (i.e. Spiderman and the like) and it's an over-used, extremely generic plot. I can't believe it sells in Japan, but I guess everyone there thinks of themselves as normal or something. I hate it when the description sounds like it was written by an adolescent. It's like mangakas have a box with words like zombie, school, siblings, super powers, ecchi, etc. in it and pick out 5 or 6 of them and make a manga out of it.

The premise is solid, but with the speed things are going now... I don't see it becoming an exceedingly captivating series. The way I see it one of two things will happen: One, his sister will find out she's dead and the series will turn into a depressing psychological/tragedy, or two, the Inquisition will find out and he'll have to take up evading them while trying to keep his sister in the dark. Either way, the outlook looks dark...

if you like gothic moe and nekonomihon
in a way similar to Akame-ga-kill
the thing that sends shivers down your spine is how the manga makes you feel mortaly afraid of your friends and close people in a way that mirror reality..
how many of us are horrified of being exposed of how truly we are in front of people that are close to us and society
