Synopsis

As the cicadas chirp on a hot summer day, a man prepares to hang himself in his apartment. Unable to follow through with his plan, he lazes about and watches television to pass the time. However, when a special program about seafood from Hokkaido comes on, the man realizes that he has never once eaten crab. Determined to partake in the luxurious cuisine before his life ends, the man plans to travel to Hokkaido using the last of his money.

Unfortunately, the trip costs a bit more than he expected. Unemployed and lacking any valuable possessions to speak of, the man ponders taking out a loan. While wandering around lost in thought, he bumps into a high-class housewife. Taking notice of the grand diamond ring on her finger, the man makes up his mind. Deciding that robbery is his best bet, he trails the woman and forces himself into her house. And yet, before he even has the chance to extort her valuables from her, the woman offers him both her cash and her body.

Yukionna to Kani wo Kuu left a strong aftertaste after reading for me. Yukionna means snow woman based on Japanese folklore. The female main protagonist Ayame was called a Yukionna probably due to the mysteries surrounding her. The male main protagonist Kita and Ayame both seek death by suicide for their personal struggles. They meet in an unlikely scenario and decide to not die until they travel to Wakkanai in Hokkaido, the northernmost city in Japan, and taste the king crab.

The series is made for adults with a lot of sex scenes. Even though the overall feeling is sad for this manga, there ...

I'd gladly give it a 10 out of 10 if, they weren't behaving like rabbits and doing it all over the place. I mean, i felt quite alienated myself, seeing them "doing it" all the time lol. Alienation aside, i also think that, "doing it" all the time took the focus off some important stuffs (as you'll/d seen) --or maybe i'm just projecting my own inner turmoil here. I liked the art style --not so moe for my tastes-- i could see the efforts they really put into it. I loved the cast, they all seemed real, not just some fools harming themselves due to ...

The series is decent, but I feel people overstate how philosophical or existentialist it is. The manga is a 7/10 take on self-introspection and the weight we carry throughout our lives. It has its beautiful moments, darker melancholic takes, and some episodes of sending the reader on an eerie trip into the human psyche.

Unfortunately, the impact is marred by several drawbacks:

1) The Hokkaido side story with one particular character was so obviously shoehorned in and felt cheap. One of the most out-of-place plot points I've seen recently.
2) Weak delivery of the resolution/conclusion: I'd say this could be attributed to spending so much time on the ...
