Description
In the future, the government "recycles" dangerous criminals instead of executing them. Their memories are erased, their personalities are replaced, and they are sent back to their original life as a new person. With this process, there is an extremely low rate of repeat offenders.

The first thing I notice is that movements are stiff. The artist can work on that. Other than that, the storyline is good, but a bit confusing at some points. If the artist want some actions to be misleading to mislead the readers, then the artist need to work on the character's gesture.
Like the previous reviewers, I do feel this manga fell short of its own potential. However, I did enjoy reading what was presented here. I think Guy Smiley missed out by not reading the second half of the story, for one thing. It definitely picks up there and springs a few surprises on you. Still, I do feel a great idea (that of erasing the minds of criminals) is wasted here. I'd love to see a longer and better-written series focusing on the same idea. It's definitely an interesting one.
I started reading cos the premise sounded good - turns out thats all it had though. The characters are all typical highschool romance stereotypes plus a few others (stereotypes that is) - and the mystery is nothing more than an amateur detective club.
I must confess though that this opinion was formed based entirely on the first half of the first chapter - I was so bored I stopped reading at that point and wrote this instead.
Spoiler (highlight to view)
"Let's go look at the scene of the crime YEARS later, and talk to a potential witness (again YEARS later), cos the police would never do that." And base the presumption of his innocence on the fact that he's right handed and the weapon was left handed scissors - brilliant, really.

I can see a lot of potential in this manga, however there are so many flaws in it that ruins the whole story. The plot was very confusing and the characters were very misleading. The only compliment I can give is that the art was decent and idea of "erasing memories of criminals and putting them back into society" was interesting. I'll give this manga a 6/10.
