Una buena introducción a una serie de mangas que giran en torno a desapariciones, muertes y un extraño símbolo de la infancia del protagonista.

Hay saltos en el tiempo para ver al grupo de amigos de niños y en su presente, cuando están sucediendo todas estas cosas y nadie sabe aún qué hay detrás.

Desde o primeiro volume a série começa forte, mantendo o clima de mistério através da trama costurada com flashbacks e visões do futuro. É claro que, como é o primeiro volume de uma série de 22 volumes (no Japão), não existe muito mais do que uma apresentação dos personagens e do enredo básico nesse número 1. Mas, ainda assim, que número 1.
Naoki Urusawa sempre é recomendadíssimo.

Di awal bikin sedikit bingung tapi lama-lama terbiasa dengan alurnya yang maju-mundur.
Ada hal-hal yg mulai terasa aneh saat Kenji dan kawan-kawan ini menginjak dewasa. Ditemukannya simbol yang sama persis seperti simbol perkumpulan mereka waktu masih kecil. Salah satu teman Kenji tewas bunuh diri. Lalu ada seseorang yang dipanggil "friend", si "friend" ini sepertinya memimpin sebuah perkumpulan dan menjadikan simbol itu sebagai lambang mereka. Siapa sebenarnya "friend"? Apakah dia salah satu dari teman-teman Kenji di masa kecil? Dan apakah dia juga alasan dari meninggalnya teman Kenji?
Volume 1 ini lumayan membuatku terpancing buat tau kelanjutan ceritanya

With a series of events happening, including a murder, people going missing and mysterious packages, a group of friends finds their childhood games becoming more and more relevant to the events they are experiencing as adults. At the same time, a mysterious cult is taking action to become closer to true tranquility and other parts of their belief system.

Super interesting concept and the changes between timeline of their adult lives and childhood selves was easy to follow. Secret cults always seem interesting but not sure if I’ll be continuing. It had a hard time keeping me intrigued and I got some what bored best the end. On a positive though, my boyfriend seems really interested in! Hopefully he’ll enjoy this a lot more than me!
