Description: | A schoolgirl who was adopted by a family experiences hardships at school and home. Her foster family treats her as Reika, their daughter who had died a couple years ago. Suddenly, her real blood-related brother appears before her, who has been searching for her for years. Now her life is turned upside down. Will she learn to trust other people again? Note: Flower of Eden was slated for release on January 2006 by TokyoPop, but was cancelled after author Yuki Suetsugu admitted to copying numerous panels from Inoue Takehiko's manga titles Slam Dunk and REAL.

Yeah, I know right? Copying a scene is much different than tracing or someshit. What a wimpy author.
I really hope somebody will redo the last chapter eventually. I finished it, but in the end the ridiculously low quality of the image editing and scanning really destroyed the entire atmosphere for me...
OK, so . . . I don't know about the controversy mentioned in the description. Maybe I'm too much in the internet age, with music using samples from elsewhere, mashups, webcomics like "Partially Clips" and all that jazz, but I find it hard to care.
That aside, it's a pretty good manga if you like tearjerkers. Dramatic, a little over the top to be honest, but it held my attention. Plenty of tension, plenty of emotion. Characters often do stupid things for the sake of the plot complications--but I never found I could claim that stupidity wasn't understandable for that character. We're talking people with some fractures that go deep. The characterization is actually pretty decent, with few complete villains (and the exceptions fairly believable).
