...and the flowers of evil stay safely confined in the pages of books. I suppose as a writer and reader myself, this resonated with me. Not completely sure how exactly I feel about this manga, and I don't dare to say I completely understand it yet.

I love the entire aesthetic and concept of this manga, I've always been a sucker for stories about music. What the characters went through is nothing short of an inspirational journey, and you get to be right next to them along the way.

A beautiful, twisted plot, with tragic, realistic characters. I loved the powerful concurring metaphor of the cherry blossom, and the deep message of forgiveness and death. This is like a dramatic soup opera tragedy, very fitting of it's romantic historic setting and tone.

A fascinating concept fueled by gritty art, amazing cast, and an eerie sense of realism makes this manga a treat to read. One of those that's very binge-able, top notch action scenes too.

In a span of just a couple of chapters, Harada manages to bring out a variety of different emotions and messages. Likeable characters, witty dialogue, lovely art, a bittersweet ending... there’s not much more you can ask from a 1 volume story
