"Haikai Roujin" is a manga that criticizes individualism in Japan at the present time through the eyes of an old man who at the time was one of the people who ended up criticizing and ended up becoming a type of "Don Quixote"

The old man is the only one to be able to see the truth of this society and the only one to be able to open their eyes.
Story: 7/10
To be such a short manga of only 8 chapters, it presents very good bases along with a great ending.

Characters: 6/10
The only good characters in the play are the old man, his wife and his ... lawyer, the others, although certainly important to the play, are not mentioned and go unnoticed]

Art: 8/10
The best of the work, without a doubt, is a detailed art which uses the resource of realism a lot, which is very noticeable and sometimes makes you doubt if you are looking at a drawing or an image.

Overall: 7/10

translated by google translator

Preachy and shallow.

What is the message here? That TV is bad? That we shouldn't let people die in front of our eyes? Yeah, everyone knows this stuff, it's the most superficial possible criticism of society. It's ironic that the author would choose to adopt the aesthetic of Don Quixote, because this manga feels like someone tilting at windmills.

There is a bit of an overarching story but it's not really relevant and I'm not sure why it was included.

I don't recommend this manga, obviously. There is no real reason to read this manga, you will get nothing out of it that you couldn't get by listening ... to your slightly-drunk uncle complain about the state of society
