I thought it was a good read, though a rather short one. The art from Obata Takeshi is great as usual and the plot was intriguing. One problem I have with this manga is the major plot hole towards the end.

It was emphasized that Rita is not part of the network that Keiji and the mimics are part of as she resets every time Keiji dies. In that case, she shouldn't have had to fight Keiji to determine who would survive the loop as she was never part of it.
This plot hole really draws away from the ending of the manga. Plot hole aside, I feel like the ending was also rather rushed. The characters themselves aren't very unique. They're likeable enough, but seem to lack any real personality. It was a good read overall though and I would recommend this to anyone.... Last updated on June 13th, 2014, 1:38am

It was okay. I think they could have done more with the premise. It was very basic if you think about it. And by doing more I don't mean putting out 20 volumes of this story, I mean they could have made some things clearer and added a bit more depth to the story. Anyway art was great(obviously look at the artists name) but the story was so-so. The light novel is probably better but I'm not really a light novel person so lets see how the movie ends up.

I prefer this version to the movie. The light novel is still the best though. In any case, the manga has everything a proper story should have. A great exposition, a powerful buildup (I love it when stories concentrate on how characters build up their strength), and AN ENDING THAT IS AN ACTUAL ENDING.
The only downside is that explanations are a little bit unclear at times, and there's unnecessary introduction of some characters

There's a dedicated chapter to the hot kitchen girl that adds absolutely nothing to the story.

Great interesting thriller. The mystery is well-written and keeps you wondering. Both of the main characters are likable. The side-characters, while not of much significance, are memorable enough that you remember who they are 3 chapters later. A bit sad that it's so short. I think it could have gone for one more volume but it's good to know when to end your manga. The art is phenomenal, as expected from Obata Takeshi.
So it has finally ended.

Well, as of now, I have red and watched both novel and film, and finally - finished reading manga. Out of all three, I think manga has done best in the first half of the story, that is, the whole loop introduction and main character getting stronger part (Then again, it's just my preference). Loved how the artist had done the part where he battles with Rita in eating Umeboshi. I didn't enjoy how the ending went, but over all - really nice read, definitely had its moments.
Can't forget to mention, that the art was great, especially some facial expressions.
Loved Kiriya's character growth, since I can't think of that many other manga's, that does it well.
It's rather short, so there's no hurting in giving it a try.

It's by the artist who did Death Note, and if the commentary by other people is anything to go by I'm gonna be checking out the light novel right now--BUT THIS IS AMAZING? It has everything I'd ever wanted and needed. Romance literally isn't a thing of overused cliche--it's like a romantic subplot and will be if anything which i totally dig, the MC goes through the struggles and the reactions of the loops realistically, it's in a military setting with realistic people, it's a growth manga that forces him to go stronger, IT'S EVERYTHING I LOVE? i LOVE MILITARY I LOVE TIME LOOPS, I LOVE GROWING STRONGER, I LOVE ADAPTING TO DIFFERENT CHANGES IN A TIME LOOP and just
THIS IS INCREDIBLE. I can't wait to see more.

Light Novel vs Manga

Like pandasamurai said the manga is pretty much accurate to the Light Novel. Althought I must say that the novel has a better story flow, explaining every little thing very well, not jumping steps like the manga, which is limited by its page count. I recommend that people read a few chapters of the manga then go read the light novel as of the novel doesn't have pictures, the manga helps on characters recognizement and setting creation.

I finished the novel yesterday, it absolutely blew me away. So far, Obata Takeshi has been pretty much 100% accurate to it, and I can already see why. I am just anticipating what kind of personal tastes that he'll be putting into the art style as the story evolves. If you are reluctant to read it because of the current lack of translated chapters, then at the very least save it into your wish list because this manga is a high-breed of plot running with some of the world's best art.

This is based on the light novel "All You Need Is Kill" by Hiroshi Sakurazaka. Based entirely on the one chapter presently released, it is very faithful to the book.
The upcoming movie "Edge of Tomorrow" starring Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt is also based on the light novel, but is far less faithful and takes significantly more liberties with the plot, pacing, and location.
