My favorite work by Kakizaki. The way the story is told is very innovative. Each arc has a different protagonist, but the old ones appear and play a prominent role, and each arc has a new core of essential characters and they are all well crafted. I love the cast.

I'd say give this a read if you like rome as a setting and if you ...
