Honestly, I'm slightly annoyed with Minami's character. Sure, she is in love with Kanda, but isn't it a bit too selfish? She doesn't know the hardships that her brother goes through. Instead, she keeps secret (ofc she do, she's still underaged for love) and tricks her brother by keeping contact with their father.

 

I'm quite satisfied with the ending, that's how things should works. I'm impressed with the brother, actually. He managed to keep caring Minami after all that bad experience, without slight of hate or animosity. With this ending, Minami should realized that the one that really cares about her is her brother, not Kanda (not incest intended, okay?)

 

I'm kinda curious what will happen to Minami's mentality if her brother decides to get married in the future....

That means, another precious persons has been taken from her....

Sad thing is there are a lot of broken families like that. I don't think it was really disgusting per se but a lot of little girls like that don't jump into a older mans arms because of the lack of communication between family members its because they were sexually abused and so they learn about sex too early in their life. However it was a depressing read and one that could actually be considered true in some circumstances.
Sure, the manga's made of shit tonz of creep and loser stuff, and being a horny pedobear is not socially acceptable, true true, but if you're the kind of people who can't keep it mind that it was fiction when you were reading something, well all i can say is this is not the stuff for you.


IMO, this manga is, for one, depressing as fuck. But tbh, i think that depressing as fuck is what the author want to deliver, so this manga is actually good for what it was meant, again, IMO.

My sole manga review in existence, faithfully reproduced from somewhere else.

 

Edited for length

Spoiler

the story is divisive it should not be read by someone too immature to accept controversial or unsettling themes

Spoiler

The Omakes are really good, subtle and ambiguous relationships with hints of something else underneath well except for the first one where it was pretty much in your face

 I get pissed off.

The story accomplishes what it seeks out to do, but read it with caution. Though the light hearted omakes at the end were really great. 

alot of people need to get off their high horse and stop saying ew -.- And condemning this story like CB39 goest to show our society's inept ability to discuss anything sexual in mature manner. Reading the mature posts makes me have some hope for humanity but very litte.

 

One last rant:

And for the love of god people it has the MATURE tag so be mature -.- And for the love gd @CB39 your just so much disgust you can't think straight no less attempt to see what the mangaka is trying to convey. Its people you like that sicken me... If you open your mouth have something more productive to say then just ew.. Jeez if you can't handle the topic then don't read it.

Seriously sickening. DO NOT READ. There is no happy ending, there is no moral, there is just vomit for the sake of vomit.

 

Should have murdered Kanda the first time. Could have been redeemed by throwing him in front of the train immediately after getting to where his sister was. Didn't.

Now for the purpose of these comments: This manga is DEFINITELY worth a read if you enjoy analyzing stories.
Well i would say that it's more by general standards. Ages ago maybe it was normal in some cultures to marry 10 years old girl, but since we are living in age where it's not normal it's strange, as a drama it was good read but like i said earlier it's not disgusting for me but strange. Regarding onion i must disagree with you raw onion is good and sometimes i'm eating it without anything else :D but my breath stink like hell.
@seba332 I'm sorry but that's just going by your own personal standards.

Eh, strange manga. I'm not disgusted but it feels so wrong like fakehero said even if you love someone you dont need to screw them so if he had some feelings for her, he should say no, no matter how hard she pressed him. Besides her saying that she was adult before everyone else, i think everybody knows that girl grow up mentally faster, my sister when she was 12 was already doing chores or cooking because she wanted to, so it's not excuse for what she's done. If i were in ikeuchi shoes i would just left her at dad's place i know i'm being a jerk but both of them, kanda and minami were missing some screws.
After I read this manga and its omakes I asked myself: "What am I doing with my life?".

Now seriously, it was a good read. Would re-read it again. Kizuki Akira sure knows how to play with the feelings... at least in this manga.
@FakeHero There are 60 yo characters with minds like kids, and kids with minds like 60 year-olds, in stories that is. The ages of the characters in this story are essential to creating such an impact on readers' minds, and you should never forget that it is FICTIONAL. + In no way does it send out such a message, don't be silly... What the story shows is a very resolute girl and a very impressionable guy, despite his age.
For example, did you start saying that 'Hostel' sends the message that it's okay to create a business where people get butchered and that you won't get punished for it? I'd guess no, because it is FICTION. It's the same with this. Just take it for what it is, see beneath the obvious and understand the impact of emotions that the author was trying to convey.
AHHH I CANT UNREAD WHAT I JUST READ.
This is partially what´s wrong with the Japan society. I´m not entirely sure but it almost felt like the mangaka tried to justify intercourse with 10 years old, in other words, children. Doesn´t really matter how mature she is and how willing, as according to the manga, they child gets hurt. And the guy gets to have a "tight experience" (the little sister said something along the lines "it felt good right?" "it hurts for me but it may feel better later"). I mean the guy gets away unharmed, no punishment for taking advantage of a misguided 10 year old.

TBH, yes it may be that the mangaka tried to to convey the message a relationship between adult and kid won´t work. But seriously, it instead just send this message.

YOU CAN "DO" A KID AND IT FEELS GREAT, AND THE BEST PART? NO PUNISHMENT.

I´m disgusted. And yes I´m aware of that this is a story of broken family, clueless brother, neglected sister, good for nothing dad ( he didn´t care about his 10 year old daughter being taking advantage of. Hahah, dad of the year). And a very horny adult. Yes he was just horny, loving somebody does not mean you have to "nail it" after a love confession.

Overall: 1 rating, would give minus infinite, but 1 is the lowest on the rating system.

Anything worthing of salvage from this nothing-wrong-with-jumping-willing-10-year-old-girl, is the one-shots, can´t believe they´re from the same mangaka.
great beginning, rush middle and leave "huh? that's it?" taste in the end. this mangaka quite good with one-shot chapter rather than long one >,<
Sister is a bitch.
I'm starting to become a huge fan of this mangaka. Great stories one after another, and they all contain such strong emotions.
Hi, I'm a manga :) * Mike Tyson punches you in the face * I heard you like it like that!
Wow, I just finished read. This manga has nice and interesting story. Thanks to uploader.
Nope, I refuse to read this again.. I'll just get pissed off.
If there was ever a emotional/psychological equivalent to being punched in the gut, this is it.
weird i clearly prefered the omake to the main story -_- i don't understand why...
