Description
Taken from Solaris-SVU:
Ikuru is a boy who doesn't have long to live. Growing up questioning the purpose of his life and the reason for his impending death, he's constantly confused and lonely. After learning that he doesn't have much time left, he requests that a special "girl" called a AGH-RMS (Artificial Genes Human Regenerated for Mental Support) be given to him. These people are genetically made so that they help heal and ease the mental burdens of the terminally ill. This manga is cute, sad, and ultimately a story about life, death, and humanity.

it´s touching, it´s very sad romance story, must read to Seinen genre fans.
i never cried so much in my entire life, honestly. the bond between the protagonists is, although clouded by the death, not desperate, but free and fulfilling in a way which'is just overwhelming.
It's not drawn too well, but you get really used to it. You know what will happen to the two main characters, but in the end, you just dont even dare to think about it.
the limited paradise. 10/10!

simply an amazing piece in my opinion. A real shame it's not very well-known (around here at least). A must read for those who want to read a phenomenally poignant, yet tragedy, story.
Well this is one of those 10's, read those other comments for reasons
An incredibly happy, incredibly sad manga. A beautiful story for the ages.
Don't miss it. And make sure you have tissues.

I didn't like this manga at all. Sorry!
..not that much plot (ok, so i'm actually on the 2nd vol), and i don't mean it's pointless BS, but that it's not filled with action.
the way the feelings are portrayed, like childish love but so-so real. i don't think i want to read it to the end and cry for i know the inevitable is bound to happen.
ok, so the art is not-so my taste, but i like the kind-of diary version - today we did this, and she was this and that. it reminds me of a great book i once read. or was it a manga?
will rate it when through.
Update
so i'm through. didn't cry as much as i expected. actually the bits not actually about Ai and Ikuru were kinda boring. tooo much text. seriously.
i'll give it a 8, but i don't think i'll be reading it again any time soon. still recommend it though
