And tough I find some parts really interesting, I find others far too disgusting to make me say this is an awesome masterpiece (or something like that). So I can't really rate this one but I can ask you people: What are your interpretation? I'm not sure if there is a right answer out there actually so don't be afraid if you have an unusual perspective. I myself just finished it and I haven't figured out anything about the end yet... What was up with those butterflies? O.o well after one read I was petty clueless about anything thats happened there, After that I read it 2 more time and I kind of figure it all out. at first I though it was one of those seinen\ philosophy mangas that are just trying to much to be mysteries, but after I read it again I was amazed. this manga have so much more then ppl usually think its truly a masterpiece which I can assure you that no human on earth can understand without reading it 2 or 3 times(or even a 100). everything connect perfectly everything that happened had a meaning EVERYTHING. I'm amazed that a human being could come up with such a story. |
| It's been a while since I read it and I got most of it, but the parts I didnt I just attributed to a subpar scanalation. Translation is serious business. |
"I'm starting to think mal is run by Xinil generating electricity on a bicycle." - idklol |

| For the most time I did't get this manga...or it's more like I didn't even understand what I was supposed to understand from it. I would have normally dropped it, but because of this topic and the positive reviews I kept reading it. Well, in the end it did make sense. I guess I should re-read it in order to fully understand it, because, even though I can see the big picture, there are some details that I missed. |

| Sigh... time to read this about another half dozen times. |
| I don't remember much about it.. but there was scissors in it, I think. |
Meerkat said: What was up with those butterflies? O.o Because of their metamorphose they are believed to be messengers of the death in many cultures. Butterflies are either symbols for ghosts/dead people themselves (not only in japan but even in greek antiquity they were seen as the souls that god freed from death, the chrysalis "νεκύδαλλο" can be translated by "shell of the soul") or carrier, that come to pick up the souls, when someone died. They actually appear in quite every japanese story that deals with death. Anyhow, it was a good story, but I somehow didn't liked the art very much. |

| It's weird...even though I was a bit confused with what was going on, but as I soon as I reached the end of the manga I was left somewhat numb. |

I had a very hard time telling what was the past and what was the present, and which characters were which and how they connected with the others. Exactly how I feel right now - the only exception is that I'm not done with it yet but I'm having a headache because I'm that kind of person that wants to figure out everything (by the first reading) @_@ |
| Im glad i understood most of it in the first read, the only thing i didn't understand was the thing with susuki and the old man at the end/start. did they even say that suzuki name was amahiko? would've been easier to understand that part if they did. |

Real masterpieces, very valuable artistic works can be very disturbing. |

| This manga was 2deep4me. I still enjoyed it for its complex storytelling, but sadly, I don't think I fully understood it. Would have to re-read it at some point to get the full picture. |

| How come no one is actually normal? Everyones fucking deranged in some way. |
| Doesn't seem like there's a full explanation here, unfortunately to breakdown every character and plot or what all of the secrets are. Although, learning from post #4 that that was his mother and that the boy was his future self father, while the girl was his mom and sister or whatever... damn, wtf. |
