* Critical Evaluation
I had an extremely hard time trying to figure out what this story was about. The dialogue jumps around from person to person so much I had no way of knowing what was occurring. I also had trouble telling the characters apart for this very reason.

* Why did you include this book in your titles you selected?
I selected this title for my blog because I wanted another manga title but when I tried to read it I realized it was way too confusing for me. I included it with selections because up until this point I have liked everything I have read and I will probably enjoy the other materials as well. I thought it was a good idea to keep this one in to show that sometimes materials are just not suited for that person. I did not like this manga because I could not understand it. I think if I am going to have a collection of 50 titles, might as well have one bad review with 49 good ones.
