A beautiful adventure one shot that can make your memory good, cause it gonna make you remember and pick it up even after several long time.

Story? Nu-uh, pick it up and you will know. Best, but I think it's best to keep it short like this, as a one shot.

For the art itself, the author really know how draw atmosphere so the reader can really feel the adventure that the heroine have been. It's beautiful, nothing more.

Enjoyment? Slow pace but leaves you good at the end.

Overall? Pick it up. It's really good. It's one of the best one shot I have ever read.

Even if you don't have a lot of time on your hands, a oneshot is something that can be read fairly quickly, so if you're having doubts on whether to read this or not it really won't take out much of your day so I strongly recommend at least trying it.

Story: 10/10
Generally with one shots they aren't able to get a solid story with well rounded characters and information out in a very short time frame, however, this manga manages. We quickly understand the situation the world is facing, and the struggles the heroes are experiencing. The story dives into ways that are unexpected and ... leaves you with a sense of sadness.

Art: 9/10
You can tell a lot of time went into the artwork by how beautiful it is, especially the pages that have been coloured.
The art is more than your average manga, thought was definitely put into the environment and characters and the shading is phenomenal.

Characters: 9/10
For having such a short time-frame to tell the story we witness a lot of development between the characters, and we learn a lot about the type of people that they are.

Enjoyment: 9/10
I definitely did not regret reading this, and I'm very glad I gave it a chance.
Hopefully you enjoy picking this up as much as I did.

Frankly, this is bad.

Ryouji Hirano's art is better than it was in Bozebeats but still really weak and messy on almost every page (with just a few exceptions). The story blatantly gives away the twist on page 2 and then proceeds to pretend that we don't know until the "reveal" near the end. It's not all bad, as there is a decent amount of character writing and the rest of the pacing is theoretically solid - however, between the extremely jarring mismatch between the information the reader has versus the information Hirano wanted the reader to have, and the painful-to-read art, those positives are strangled ... out of the work. Hirano probably can make something good someday, if he gets a stronger grasp of story flow and most importantly figures out how manga art works, but this ain't it.
