What was even going on in this series? Who knows? Not me. Artwork was amazing though. The majority of this volume is taken up with this long, surreal, mostly wordless, who-knows-what-the-hell-is-happening cinematic sequence that I never would have dreamed could be pulled off in black and white comic format.

A more perfect finale could not have been written. I know some would prefer something clearer, but that would be missing the point of the story. The manga provides ample information to form whatever lens you wish to view the events of the story through.

"[...] you'll have to figure it out yourself. You must search for the meaning alone. Although the truth was made clear before you came here."

"People love to attach meaning to every little thing. But who knows if it's really valid? [...] Anyone who believes what I say is a fool. The language of the waves and the wind is so simple... yet everyone over-analyzes it."
