I'm crying. And I've read this story in novel before. But something about the manga form makes me tear up even more.

The point where Darren is depicted well by Arai. As this is one of my favourite parts I obviously remembered it, what I did not remember however was the fact that
I love the front cover of the volume picturing Darren and Steve fighting the final fight and then back when they are children playing together again. It was great to see Darren
This was a great end to the manga series that has done justice to Shan’s books.

Re-read this after years (I think I'd read the whole manga run 4 or 5 times) and I overestimated my memory of what happens lol. There was a lot I didn't understand/remember (which is also why there's no rating).
That said, I remember how taken I was with this series when I was 13-14, and the story is just as gripping as it was then. It's all very well thought-through and though I don't love the ending I think it's true to the essence of the series. I'd actually forgotten the manga was based on novels, so I think next time I have a craving for this story I'll pick those up.
Amazing and tightly written manga though - if looking at giant manga runs (coughNarutocoughBleachcough) gives you the hives, this is where it's at.
