And I am no exception! Somehow, whenever I read this manga, by the time I get to the last chapter, I can't remember any of the other stories because the last one blows them all out of my mind. The subtlety of the twist is sublime. You expect the mild mannered office worker to play some part in the twist, but his backstory and "true form" comes out of left field in the best possible way. Part of me would love to see more of this chapter - a big part, honestly - but another part of me says that it is written so perfectly just the way it is. Would continuing to draw the story out dilute the impact of the beauty of the story? I don't know, but I'd almost hate to find out. What is read can't be un-read, ya know? So, I will satisfy myself by simply rereading this manga, and chapter 6 particularly, as often as I can. LOL
