I really reccomend this manga. It can get weird at times, though.

Man this manga had slipped my mind. I lost track of it at some point when it was about midway through. +1 on the recommendation.

Quick note though, gender identity and dealing with gender identity and fluidity is a key theme so if that isn't your cup of tea don't read it and don't whine about it.

Incredibly smart plot, the characters cannot get enough praise, using black-and-white like a master. It was intense, but I enjoyed reading it a lot.
This manga is one in a thousand, you will not regret reading it.

Spoiler

good thing they left out a certain tag that that would spoil the ending, if you read the ending you know what I'm talking about, also I never read this I found this on tvtropes but I'm gonna read it cause it interests me, I don't know if hinting at a spoil is a spoil so I just put this in a spoiler tag

I'm a bit dissapointed at how the plot was handled around 2/3's of the way through to the end. It gave me No Side flashbacks. But I loved the characters so damn much I can't bring myself to care about that. I highly reccomend you set aside both a weekend and your preconceptions to read it through.

Just recently finished this, it was a pretty fun ride. The only thing, I think, that detracts from the experience is the opium village arc: it was truly needless padding that did not contribute to the overall story or the development of the character arcs of Taichi and Tetsuo.

It makes me wanting the author to make another series set in either the later post-WWII Showa era (second half of the 60's-70's, 80's) or in contemporary Japan.

beginning to the middle is really superb, late- to the end is kind of turn off, but still one the greatest manga though

This is so underrated

Thank you so much for translating this. I read this about 3 years ago and found it again today. Still the #1 manga in my heart. Nogizaka Tarou is a true sensei.
