"Yuureitou" had good potential in mysteries and I expected to read a mystery manga from the beginning, but unfortunately, after the mid-point of the manga, the main topic shifted to LGBT+ themes . The first half of the manga was amazing, your attention is easily captured by its plot. For me, if the mangaka had given a hint about LGBT+ themes earlier, I wouldn't have focused entirely on the mystery events of the manga. So, the ending of the manga is a little bit weak to me.

The strongest aspect of the manga is its art! I really liked the mangaka's style. While reading the manga, ... I felt every emotion from those panels! Mangaka uses black color very well.

The main characters of the manga can be likable to you, but don't expect too much from them; sometimes they can be irritating.

I recommend this manga to those who seek brutal events with mysteries.

I'm... not what you'd call a crime-mystery lover.

This manga depicts a story so easily to follow at the beginning, the hero, the call to action, the objective, the heroine, and honestly it just seemed boring to be honest, but this was a story far much more complex, it was a mystery that broke many conventions and turned into something more, something more interesting.

A surprisingly amazing cast of characters, all varied in motives, needs, objectives and emotional attachments; but the most surprising was the LGBT representation present. The amount of character a person is given outside the sexuality, gender or body they have is outstanding, I ... was recently so disappointed with many incarnations of those themes in my random list of recommendations and I didn't expect a crime story to have them here with such care and ambition; it felt necessary, something that sadly isn't that common in the media produced, and so, characters I'd give a solid 9/10 for how much I cared for them, how much I was invested in their struggles from an outside perspective and how sad I was at the end for 1 particular character, it felt like I did grow to like them and man, they did grow too, every character evolved to such an amazing degree and was absolutely what kept me interested in this till the very end.

The art definitely was a good part of this, it deserves like a good 8 since it's not super outstanding, but it works wonders for the story being told, it doesn't overstep its boundaries and what it should be for the story.

Now we had to reach that point, the story, 5/10 on that one, as I said, this is the mixed thing about the manga, I'm not that interested in a crime story to be honest, they have the villain, they have the twists, and it went out of my comfort zone and yeah, I appreciate it, but I can't bring myself to feel that love for what I was being told, loads felt like a weird balance of unnecessary, boring, meandering, it could've been shorter without a doubt, but I do think lovers of the genre will definitely love this one to bits, even with how batshit insane it went by the last few chapters, the ending was unsatisfying for some people which I didn't get, it felt like a nice tie, an epilogue of sorts, people exaggerate.

Even though I enjoyed the beginning of the series quite a lot, I'd have to say that the end was very disappointing. Yuureitou starts as a good drama, with lots of mistery. It is written so well that at some point in the chapter you jump of your seat. However, there are little hints of what the story becomes: a fairy tale for trans with MANY MANY abuses of hentai. I'll be blunt: if someone wants to jack off during an exciting reading, I doubt they want to suddenly jump off because there was some freaking scary part in the manga. I didn't like the ... way the author combined certain topics. It would have been reading Tetsuo's development without seeing her in such sexy poses. I even think that it's offensive for women who want to become guys. But I'll just say there's a great drama in the story.
