I'm only reviewing the first volume of 14 from this series, but this is one of the most beautiful works I've read. A very quiet, calming post-apocalyptic setting evokes the "twilight of the human race" in a story infused with distinctly Japanese aesthetics and deep emotions. One of my favorites.

bowman's review against another edition

Okay, I don't really like slice-of-life, but I found a bunch of manga on my computer I had apparently acquired years ago, and gave this one a try. Nothing happens, nothing at all, but it's also strangely... appealing? This is a rare interpretation of the apocalypse as a slow, sleepy end; a calm, almost bucolic depiction of wilderness overtaking and supplanting modern society. You know, it's armageddon but it's not the end of the world. It's kinda nice. Rising ocean levels make for some great new beach territory. The highways aren't so crowded anymore because everyone's dead. People seem to just give each other goods and services because there isn't much of a flow of currency anymore.

Mostly I think I might get into it for the long haul because lesbian robots maybe.
