Synopsis

Suffering from a terminal illness, Yuuta's mother asks him to film her last moments, which he does. From her radiant smile when she is with her family to the times when sickness ravages her body in the hospital, he records hours upon hours of footage. After her passing, Yuuta compiles her life into a movie to screen at his school, deciding to add a bit of fantasy to the ending of his film, Dead Explosion Mother, with a literal explosion!

Following the backlash caused by his supposedly tone-deaf portrayal of his mother's death, Yuuta trudges to the hospital roof to take his own life—but there, he meets a girl named Eri. Captivated by his film, Eri requests Yuuta to make a new one that will blow the previous out of the water and prove his critics wrong. The movie they set out to make will stand apart by blurring the line between fact and fiction. And of course, it wouldn't be a Yuuta film if it didn't have his personal flavor—just a dash of fantasy.

Give me this and a laptop/typewriter on a desert island and I will have a full dissertation praising the absolute powerhouse that is Fujimoto-san and his portfolio, because MAN does he have range. Well-deserved praise aside Sayonara Eri/Goodbye Eri is another one-shot from the mind of Tatsuki Fujimoto. Coming fresh off the heels of his other works Look Back and (of course) Chainsaw Man, Goodbye Eri follows the story of amateur filmmaker Yuta shortly after the passing of his mother, and how the trajectory of his life becomes forever changed upon a chance encounter with a mysterious schoolgirl named Eri. Pardon my vagueness as this ...

Story – 5/10
Goodbye, Eri’s story is just average. It isn’t bad, but it just isn’t good per se. At a certain point, the story looked like it had reached its climax, with a sudden twist of faith that would have been great if it had actually been true. Instead, the story ended in a less fashionable manner. This story is a one-shot, and ...

This manga is kind of a metafiction, a bad one, however. The plot is absurd just for the sake of it, with the weightless and poorly thought out twists being the worst. Art is nothing to write home about. I'd even say it's lazy, given how like 10 panels in a row have the same background, with only bubble text changing. I mean, yeah, artistic decision and whatnot, except the conversations are also dull. It's either pretend humor or make-believe philosophy. Characters are bland, no progression whatsoever. No real comedy or drama. No romance either.

All it has is uniqueness. Read if you are new to ...
