A dark 1990s shoujo indeed.

Drawn to the premise Obana had offered up her sleeve, I started binge reading and finished it in one sitting. A lot to say here, first of all, damn tea sis.

Story wise, not too long, nor too short. Very straightforward and tight, well written despite it had a lot genres mixed in one with sci-fi, mystery, romcom as major ones. I couldn't think of any plot hole looming over the story, basically.

Character wise, well developed characters enough to embrace and overcome their own flaws as it is. I came to love all those characters politically, even the morally grey Professor one. Not that it lacked any sort of character type but as a noir fan, I couldn't help but wondering what if a fatale character were present in the story. Perhaps, the professor himself could pose well enough as a homme fatale.

Aesthetic wise, it really lived up to late 1990s until early 2000s style to my pleasure.

The ending was bittersweet, no more and no less. I was pretty satisfied, but still ponder for those who died.

I enjoyed reading this it contains a lot of elements I like in a manga and was still a good read but I reeeeeeealy hope there is atleast one chapter or even a page more cause that end seems really lacking.

Cool Obana Manga

I loved this manga series! I happened to stumble over it a few years back on the internet and I was more than happy when I found the volumes in a used-manga store called book off in Japan. I think I paid about 4 bucks for the whole lot of the volumes and let me tell you, wasn't that some of the best-spent money of my life!
Obana creates a chilling world of mystery that is both fascinating and disgusting.
At first, it's a story about twin sisters in love with the same guy... until one of them dies. And comes back looking quite alive.
I don't want to spoil this for anyone, because I hope that one day, this will be completely scanlated and other people will be able to read it as well, so I'll shut up.
Definetely recommended!

good, but creepy

This manga has a sad but unique plot. I can't guess what's going to happen at all. I enjoy the manga a lot. The illustration is nice as well.
It's good there's some humor in it (thank god, otherwise the plot will be too too dark).

What a pity...

Given that the story is so interesting, it's a pity that it's been 3 years since Omanga has released any new chapters. In addition, they've been concentrating mainly on a couple of series, so don't get your hopes up.

About the story: hmmm, it's not as dark as it seems. It's a little twisted but that only makes it a rather interesting tale..

So far, I haven't read too much of it, like completely, but its very very dark story in all, but there is still some humor in it. I rather like it, though it can easily make a person feel depressed. ;~~; I feel bad for the characters, and sometimes feel like stopping myself from reading cause I feel like something sad is gonna happen again, but I love Obana, so I continue onward~~ I'll update this later if I feel it's not as good as when I started.
