Only vol 2 but so far this is perfection. So much heart in this story. The pacing and mystery being built is god tier.

The greater mystery deepens and the slice of life aspects are wonderfully executed. I like that it doesn’t shy away from people being tough on each other but also how they care is so well done too. The action is plentiful. This book is so great.
Content Warnings
Graphic: Misogyny, Sexism, Trafficking, Drug use, Gaslighting, Injury/Injury detail, and Medical content
Moderate: Blood, Child death, Death of parent, Gun violence, and Toxic relationship
The triggers are in there, I wouldn’t say to anything particularly awful, it’s just suggestive or like broad action violence. The death of parent and child are more suggested than anything. I call it graphic drug use but it’s a character high causing a dangerous situation. The sexism is more in the tail end of the book during a flash forward where the protagonist is a high school student.danielletute's review against another edition

I'm still not ready to say if this is fantasy or sci fi but I am here for historical fiction that leads to giant monsters in some way.
Also I love the characters and the biggest twist so far is that the guy who was shot after helping people didn't die. I fully expected him to die because of other works I've read. You got me again, Naoki Urasawa.
I'm very excited to read what happens next.
