Today...
I think I'm playing for you.
Lost in the
moment
the sound of the
strings plays with all
of your senses
as they strangely seem
to melt in the air
like water.
As this music is
born
it gives your existence new meaning...
After we greet one another,
let us sing together,
let
this sound carry on
for a little while...
As we savor the magical moment.

I picked up this series over a year ago and read the first few volumes in just a few days. But I quickly realized that this manga was meant to be read slowly. So, since then, I would sit down and read a handful of chapters only on special occasions - maybe once or twice a month, whenever I felt like I should return to those lush green landscapes. The series carries with it the sense of emptiness that comes from watching grass grow tall and people grow old. Having stuck with this series for so long, the emptiness it conveys of time’s passing hit pretty hard for me. Even with the really bad translation I read, the visual storytelling was able to carry that sense. I love this series so much

Easily one of my favorite manga, with perfect flow and comfortable pretty much everything.
