General Comments: A poignant tale of troubled teenagers; their bonds are pushed to the limits. Despite this, it acknowledges the immense growth of the characters. The main plot threads are wrapped up well. While short, and often uplifting, it remains a roller-coaster of emotions throughout and a great realistic drama untinged by stereotypical tropes. A complex series, and another masterpiece by Kaori Ozaki.
