I have never read the original and thought I was missing something. After reading the provided summary at the end , I realized I got the gist of it - it was just (in my opinion) just not a very good story. 

There is no one really likable and most everyone dies at the end. Also, I didn’t care for the artwork - but I acknowledge that Manga isn’t my thing.
