Funny enough, this is a lot kinder than Whiplash. It makes me wonder if ambition doesn't have to be so mean and cruel. Can one remain true to character (noble, tireless, enthusiastic) when it comes to becoming a so-called great?
Great moments of puffed up cheeks and wincing eyes to match the clashing clanks of brass you can feel off the pages. Hazy intermixings of exposition that create an unclear position in direction, but it's fine and fun because it's jazz. For all the reasons I love improvisation and being an amateur, this one hits!

*4.5 Stars* It's slow paced, but I honestly couldn't stop reading it. I appreciate jazz and love the references to some of the Jazz greats. Because I played clarinet as well, I like that I can follow along with the technical terms being spoken. I actually want to pick up the next 2 in 1 volume, because the flash forwards have me intrigued as to what Dai's journey will look like.

Fun and different manga-romp; appreciate that it is outside the typical box. Probably will continue series.
