| Not a single discussion post ? Come on. Anyway, what a surreal and delightful manga. I'll admit, it took me a few chapters for it to get interesting for me but it was definitely worth it because it gets better the longer it goes on. I'll admit the ending leaned a little too hard into the surrealism aspect for me. I was wondering if it was all some kind of hallucination or dream but no, Hanao really did get his chance to play for the Giants at the age of 31. Shigeo's development throughout the series is also great to see, although I did feel like maybe it was a tad rushed sometimes. Still, Hanao teaching Shigeo to feel things and not just think about them was great and seeing their bond grow stronger over the course of the story was genuinely touching. His interactions with the Hag were also a highlight for me. "Cold ? Of course it's cold. The important thing is to feel". That's something I'll think about for a while. |
