Synopsis

In a world ravaged by war, a young boy walks down a lonely road in the aftermath of his mother's death. Along his journey, he witnesses military tanks, dead bodies, and his beloved city in ruins. With eyes clouded by anguish, he pushes himself to keep moving forward.

One morning, he meets a girl in an abandoned bus where he spent the night. Moments after their encounter, the area turns into a battlefield, and the pair escapes into a long abandoned lane. The two strangers decide to walk together to the end of the road, thus beginning a companionship that will ignite new hope inside their shriveled hearts.

I just finished this and i don't even have words to describe what i read. Beautiful, simply beautiful. The writing is simplistic but realistic. But the art, dude. The art really takes it to another level. Both the colored, black and white and chaotic sketch pannels all immerse you into the story. This is what war is.

The characters are believable and very human, every single one of the characters acts their own way and aren't just some twisted reflection on what the author feels.

To finish my review off: This is a must read if you believe war is a good cause... Because it'll hit your ...

Despair, longing, and futility — they sum it up.
The panelling is the best I've seen, conveying the characters' emotions so vividly that we feel what they’re feeling. We understand their fear of being alone in this world, their desire to survive. The artist masterfully uses negative space and silence in the panels to amplify the characters' isolation, allowing the reader to feel their quiet desperation in a way that words alone could never express.

When the bombs hit, it feels like they’re hitting me instead. But in the end, we’re reminded that no matter how dire the circumstances or how deep we’ve sunk into despair, we ...

Mixed Feelings
For much of the run of this series, it felt mainly like tragedy porn. We've all seen stories like this, both in anime and elsewhere: everything goes wrong, people die and are mangled, and it's easy to walk away from it feeling like all the writer wanted to do was make you sad. Up to the last couple of chapters, I would have said it's just that: well done tragedy porn, and no doubt given it a lower score. It's the same problem I had with Grave of the Fireflies, only more gratuitous and without much insight into why things are happening. Frankly, this series ...
