The manga should've stopped after Chapter 116.

Everything that happens after Chapter 116 should've been a spin-off.

I would given the manga a solid 9, if it wasn't for the post-116 chapters.
Chapter 116 was a great ending and should've stayed that way.

Now for everything before chapter 117...

Preliminary (136/? chp)

When originally writing this, upon seeing that this very interesting manga had no reviews I couldn't resist posting one. I'll try my best to not reveal too much information as you have to read for yourself to find the reasons this manga is unique.

Story: (8/10)
Basically some sort of magical object made by some over powered being takes form of other objects in its surroundings. I know, it's weird at first to think about but hear me out. What if this object takes the shape of a human? What if this inhumane immortal being learns to become a human? Well, of course he does. The main ... protagonist, pet named Fushi, may look human but is far from it. Through the immortal's journey to find his purpose he crosses paths with many strangers who become a part of who he is and will become.

There are plenty of arcs that slowly unravel Fushi's true self as he proceeds into the hardships of the human heart. He may be the only main character but he wouldn't be Fushi without the flawed and troubled side characters that show Fushi what it means to be alive. Just like Ooima's other manga, Koe no Katachi.

Art: (9/10)
I love the art style, the characters are what you expect from the creator of Koe no Katachi. The scenery is amazing like a masterpiece. Even more than enough to paint the perfect picture. Almost like her other manga, yet this one seems to have a more elaborate look to it, proving that an artists style is ever changing.

Character: (9/10)
You might think this immortal magical object is a mindless, boring, inhumane creature that is supposed to learn how to be human. Well, you may be right but nobody knows anything about Fushi. His past starts at the very beginning as the reader knows just as much as Fushi knows about himself. In fact, it is odd to refer to Fushi as any gender because they aren't human or mortal. It is a true mystery to who they really are while we are slowly discovering along side them.

Each arc of the story is filled with many side characters that teach Fushi an abundance of new skills whether they be the hard labor everyone has to go through or simply learning how to eat like a normal human being. Along with each characters own hardships are lessons for Fushi to remember.

As Fushi transforms from a mindless, mysterious, inhumane, humanoid freak to a mindful, wholehearted, cunning young man on his journey he finds himself through others. But this is far from a spoiler, there are many mysterious things I bet even Fushi wants answers to. Like, how can he create objects out of nothing? What other cool abilities does he have that even he doesn't understand? That we might never understand if not for Fushi's self discovery.

Enjoyment: (10/10)
How could I not enjoy such a unique and interesting concept. How the main protagonist transforms from the first chapter to the most recent chapter, it is like watching a child grow up. Some moments made me laugh, most made my heart ache with sympathy and compassion for the hopeless and lost. Just like Fushi I can relate to trying to find myself, especially when you are gazing into others expecting something else yet you see your own reflection.

Finding yourself is like finding a good manga, this is that good manga.

This might contain light spoilers.

I was initially motivated to read this manga because I saw it got an anime adaptation that looked pretty interesting. The story started off strong; I was drawn into the world + the characters and watching how the immortal protagonist developed as a result of the events and people around them. But it went downhill after a particular arc with one of the main antagonists... and then it just kept going downhill because the author decided that antagonist should have decedents that continually harass the protagonist throughout the ages and the protag is like: "Hm, this is kinda weird and uncomfortable ...

*This review contains only spoilers of the first chapter of the manga, also, english it's not my native language, so I apologize for the mistakes.*

''Fumetsu no Anata e'' it's, easily, one of the most weirdest mangas I have ever seen, and I don't tell that because it's something weird in a bizarre or crazy way, no, I'm talking about something with a premise and plot so... new, that it's so fascinanting to find.

History starts with someone sending this thing on Earth, and the Thing takes with the time, the form of objects like a rock, moss, and even a wolf. When the thing transforms ... into a wolf, it goes to an abandoned town where it only lives a kid withouth name. The kid seems to knows this wolf who calls it ''Johann'' (later called Fushi), and they make a travell to leave the town to go to a better place, where people seems to live better, with food and family.

Sadly, things turn complicate for the protagonist and the wolf, because they see that the people who made the same adventure like him, have died because the cold and the hungry.

And worst, the kid and the wolf decided return to their house, and then the kid died because of a injury that he made on the travel. Next night, the Thing decided to take the form of that kid, to make the travel that the kid couldn't made.

It's nearly impossible that the first chapter won't make you cry, or at least, make you feel really sad for the characters. This manga it's from the same mangaka who made the famous and polemic manga ''Koe no Katachi'', so yes, this manga has a lot of dramatic and depressive scenes.

Our protagonist it's a ''Thing'', that can take the form of something dead, and this can be an animal or person. The manga shows how this ''Thing'' takes, with the time, conscience of itself. The Thing will learn, as expected from the premise, emotions of humans and animals. This is something really original that can bring us a lot of posibilities of how our protagonist will be in the future, if his mind will change, how it will percive things, etc.

As for the art, it's very, very nice. Way more detailed that the art on Koe no Katachi, You can actually see some progress in the autor style.The designs of the characters are really atractive, and the face expressons are also more expressive here, and you can clearly see more emotions through their faces.

Overall, if you love drama or you saw the manga Koe no Katachi and and want to see more of the autor works, you have to read Fumetsu no Anata E. It has an amazing story and concept. I really hope this manga to get the same popularity as Koe no Katachi did.

For some reason, I have a hard time liking Ooima Yoshitoki's works. The details in To Your Eternity are beautifully drawn (although I'm not a fan of her art style), and she is able to immerse you into her story's interesting world, with her many diverse characters, but I don't think this is my kind of story. I feel like she's overusing tropes that bring sadness and emptiness into the readers. There's nothing wrong with a story that makes you cry and think deeply about life; in fact, I love them, but, to me, this kind of story where the ...

Hello, this is my first review. So far, I've made it to chapter 22. Hopefully, my review won't have spoilers.

(POSSIBLE SPOILER? HEADS UP ON WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT)

First, some heads up on what you can expect. Heavy tragedy, more of storytelling through pictures, but that's only because of main character as he/she/it doesn't talk much. IMO, this manga is kind of like a collection of one-shots that come together. So do keep in mind about this, it's like there are several mini arcs.

Its really good, the only people who are saying it falls off or thinks the rest as filler; don't like it because it changes tone and pace after reaching the climax and cant follow the rest of the narrative and realize that its actually still telling a story and isn't finished... that its only leading into the final arc. It's not perfect and can be a bit corny at times, but its really good and doesn't try and take the same boring bleak overdone attitude of eternity and life that other story's and themes do.

It's another potential masterpiece from the creator of Koe No Katachi!As a disclaimer, this is my first review.

First of all, the story starts off with a clear and simple concept which is later developed and becomes more and more intricate with more details explained. As a weekly reader, I can honestly say the story is interesting and leaves you wanting more and more... Though, I have to warn you it has it's fair load of feels

A pretty good manga if you end it at around chapter 100 (Modern day arc) would have given it a whopping 8-9/10 even if art was somewhat flimsy.

Story 5/10

The story by itself is fantastic - drama(check), supernatural(check),seinen(check),shounen(sadly a check here too).
Originally it's a shounen manga but while it contained and contains naivety it's started out as mysterious dark and grimm (would not expect from shounen), scenes of violence and etc. Some philosophical inducing questions are questions and are arisen. Development of the story goes on without the end, you just don't see it stopping for the reader idle moments are usually time skipped (time ...

After I caught up to the recent chapters, I felt so many emotions, happiness, excitement, satisfaction, worry, curiosity, and many others. While my life was feeling so grey and boring, this manga filled it back with colors. I love all of the characters, every single one of them.

Fumetsu no aiba to me is a very weird manga. It starts off super strong and then just kind of dwindles down over time. Seriously, few chapters in any manga have made me cry as much as the first chapter, but its all downhill from there.

So what are the manga problems. First, the theme. Youve got an immortal who can never die and can bring people back to life. Once that is set, its hard to feel sad when any ...

As expected of Yoshitoki Oima, author of "A Silent Voice", her current work is a moving and emotional story that's quite unlike anything else. It's story full of tragedy but it isn't without its share of laughs and heartwarming moments. If you want to read a fantasy that doesn't feel like something you've already seen before, do give this manga a try!

The story follows the life of Fushi, an immortal that we don't fully understand yet. It tracks its growth and development, and the questions it asks itself the more it learns. What sort of actions will a being that imitates humans take when ...

Preliminary (136/? chp)

Review mainly consists about the first 116 chapters.
I should start off by saying that this is my first published review on this site and it won't be the most detailed.

(Spoilers ahead)

Story, first arc only aka until chapters 116. (9/10)

We can call it the first chapter charm. The first chapter was beyond perfect and it reflected exactly what it wanted. We follow the story of a form that was sent to earth. It is able to be anything it wants given enough stimuli. It's a sad, bittersweet story focused on existentialism, grief and emotional growth. As the story goes we are ... presented with the "antagonists" which are called knockers, an unknown entity who presents a dangerous threat to humanity. Faced with knockers this form, which ends up being named "Fushi" or "Immo" ( in the literal english translation ) starts fighting them in order to preserve his/her/their sense of self, his/her/their friends and his/her/their memories.

Art (9-10)

The art is beautiful, fits the atmosphere and we couldn’t expect any less from the same artist as Koe no Katachi.

Characters (9/10)

Being the most important part of the tale, the characters are far away from being disappointing. As the story goes we are introduced, after the encounter with the nameless boy, many iconic characters that end up shaping the story in a way i would never imagine, they are unique and all of them have their own individuality. March, Parona, Hayase,Gugu Pyoran, Black hood, Hahak, Tonari, Don, etc, are characters that stick with you. They are well written characters who develop along way with Fushi.

Enjoyment ( 8/10)

I discovered this manga randomly because i was bored and wasn't expecting the feels ride at all. It was an enjoyable experience that made me cry, laugh and overthink about existentialism. The concept is interesting and the world building fits the tale. The characters were griping and the pacing was just about perfect. On the other hand, we need to understand it's hard to make a perfect story, i noticed some plot holes and things that could have been explored that ended up not being talked much throughout the manga. Ex. : What are knockers after all and why did they started showing up so much after Fushi gained consciousness, are they related in a way that we don't know about? Fushi is almost 600(?) years old by the end of the first arc but he still seems pretty naive even though i feel like it's due to the fact that Fushi will never be a real human like Black Hood said. The whole "protect his humanity" could be an interesting idea to develop etc.

Overall ( 8/10 )

Regardless of its little flaws, i highly recommend the reading of this manga. It will make you feel all sorts of emotions and it's interesting from start to finish. It touches a lot of topics that may make you overthink.
I didn’t talk about what comes after chapter 116 because personally it feels like it's a letdown so far compared to the amazing build up that were the first 116 chapters. but honestly. Don't let that stop you from reading it.

I hope this review was useful.

Before you read this manga, you need to know why you want to read manga.

If you simply want to be entertained and expect a good laugh, this manga is DEFINITELY NOT for you.

On the other hand, if you want to know the importance of life and values with a bunch of ANNOYING ONIONS in nearly every chapter then this is DEFINITELY FOR YOU.

The best indicator of you loving or hating this manga will solely be based on the "1st chapter"

Preliminary (87/? chp)

Recently while reading manga, I start thinking of what I would score it as I read.

For this, it would be something like this:

Chapter 1: easily 9/10, unique premise, interesting sense of otherworldiness yet realistic/natural-feeling - can't wait to read more. The narration is interestingly fitting instead of offputting, and helps set the tone of the chapter. Even as a one-shot it is an amazing chapter.

2-30+: easily continues to 9+/10, really grasps me with with the story, character development, interactions, feels and unpredictability. Has me truly invested in and worried for the wellbeings of the characters. The character growth of the immortal Fushi is amazing, but ... the other characters that grow as well and shape Fushi really bring out the best in the story.

30-50+: it remains interesting, but something feels lacking compared to the previously amazing ride. Feels like a change in the tone of story and stage of character growth (in an understandable way). The change is not unwelcome as it would be boring to continue with the previous storytelling indefinitely, but perhaps I had invested too much emotionally to the previous characters that newly introduced ones didn't affect me so much. Possible drop to 8+/10 despite being still very interested in the story, just less impactful.

50+-current(87): Feels like another stage of character growth for the main character. Side characters are growing on me, causing me to rethink what I thought about not being invested in new characters. Story turns in a direction different from the previous chapters while remaining unpredictable and interesting. Back to 9/10 for me. I have great hopes for where things are leading and how the characters will change from now on.

-

The reason why I kind of separate the manga into vague sections so far is because of the direction of the manga kind of changes along with the main character's development over the series, as affected by his previous experiences. Looking back, I think it all comes together well, even the middle parts which I thought I didn't like as much when reading, but later felt was important in leading to future character development.

Fushi's personality and character development is the most interesting part of the seiries. Other series often also have empty AI or god-like characters, but I found this manga's one the most realistic in how he actually gains his character, especially at the start of the series when he was a blank state. We can really see how he came to be what he is from his experiences, and how circumstances and the people around him shaped his thought processes and values. He doesn't just learn empathy or have a distinct personality and core values all of a sudden, and even this changes over the course of the series and continues to do so. Is he going to be more human? Is he going to be less human? It's impossible to tell how he will end up, which is interesting. The story likewise flows according to what the Fushi at the point wants to do - does he want to fight? hide? run?

And the other major characters - their significance in the story is never limited to just one arc, and they have lasting impact on Fushi and the story. The character interactions are the heart of the story and is also done rather well for the most part. If thought of as a Fushi growth story, the story as a whole flows continuously and nicely rather than being disorganized.

Overall, the strong points of the series is the character growth, interaction, and the general atmosphere of the story (serious, but can be heartwarming and funny too, or sometimes breaks your heart effectively) that keeps you easily emotionally invested. Art is also very good without fanservice and facial expressions are on point. Enjoyment is great but bring a box of tissues. Overall, it's great and definitely recommended and feels worth sticking through to the end.

Edit: Current arc has gotten a little tiring, reminding me of how the series isn't particularly consistent despite its times of greatness. Shall drop it back down to a 8 for now but remains to be seen!

I have been pleasantly surprised by reading this. At first, it was because it was the work of author of Koe no Katachi, and I just came across of it by accident. But the storyline really drew me in and so I have read.

The first chapter itself is very unique and it shows the aura, the pace and what type of story it will be: filled with loss and tragedy, but also becoming human and learning how to be one. Because, you see, our main protagonist is actually a sphere that's adaptating to it's surroundings. First, it was an orb, then it became rock, then ...

About the period between chapters 1 - 116:
This is art. Fushi's learning process about what is the world around him, about what are the living beings that make up this world and what is in fact a living being is beautiful and very well told. The bonds he forms with humans that become important in his journey are bonds that become part of the reader, especially when Fushi realizes that they are all passengers and that he must draw some conclusions from them that will influence his development as a person and not merely be a mere living being.
