= = Nothing close to being as good as the sequel.
Story... it's the simple run-of-the-mill pointless shoujo who has a female lead that simply pisses you off. There's really no reason behind the romance, no logic. One guy kisses her then boom! She fell in love. Another confesses then suddenly she's head over heels for him too = =.
The whole idea of the story is simple, very cliche. You have a girl who is kind wavering and useless as well as very selfish, you have tragic pasts, you have guys falling meaninglessly for the protagonist. Self sacrifice that really isn't needed, crybaby, guts over anything else, what else can you ask? The whole idea of ghosts doesn't change it up that much, all it does is change one soul into two while usually it's the same soul that falls for two guys.
Art is pretty good, but a far distance off from Rasetsu. Well, the guys are still gorgeous... but feels like a 90s manga mixed with the more recent style. While in Rasetsu, the chars are just drop dead hot, there's no mix-breeding or mutant in that. Kinda like a before-after of the mangaka's improvement.
Well, for me, the only thing that's worth reading for this is the fact that this is a prequel. I wanted more of Rasetsu and I got it.
