Summary

Self-serving adults and broken dreams push a teenage boy trapped in a dead-end town closer and closer toward the abyss。

Reiji’s life is as miserable as the small town he can’t escape。 The most interesting thing that’s ever happened there is a double suicide down by the river。 Does Reiji have any power over his fate， or will he too fall into the abyss？

Reiji’s mother is checked out， he’s stuck caring for his incapacitated grandmother， and his childhood friend treats him like a lackey。 So when beautiful， big-city pop idol Nagi miraculously shows up at the local convenience store， Reiji is starstruck。 When she offers him the ultimate way out of his claustrophobic existence， will he succumb to temptation…？

Thanks NetGalley and Viz Media for this arc！I'm not really sure how to think about this， tbh。 The art was really well done， but the story was pretty depressing and， questionable？ We know Nagi is 20， but how old is Reiji？！ I feel really bad for him， and really uncomfortable that he and Nagi have a suicide pact after knowing each other for a day， and sleeping together？ Like I said the art was pretty but the storyline was definitely not my thing 😬 Thanks NetGalley and Viz Media for this arc！I'm not really sure how to think about this， tbh。 The art was really well done， but the story was pretty depressing and， questionable？ We know Nagi is 20， but how old is Reiji？！ I feel really bad for him， and really uncomfortable that he and Nagi have a suicide pact after knowing each other for a day， and sleeping together？ Like I said the art was pretty but the storyline was definitely not my thing 😬 。。。more

C'est aussi glauque et déprimant que prévu， l'ambiance et les enjeux sont rapidement établis mais les personnages sont creux。 J'ai un peu l'impression qu'on utilise la figure de l'ado torturé comme un prétexte pour pouvoir dessiner des scènes érotiques inutiles et beaucoup trop nombreuses。 C'est aussi glauque et déprimant que prévu， l'ambiance et les enjeux sont rapidement établis mais les personnages sont creux。 J'ai un peu l'impression qu'on utilise la figure de l'ado torturé comme un prétexte pour pouvoir dessiner des scènes érotiques inutiles et beaucoup trop nombreuses。 。。。more

Encore une des sorties assez récentes qui me faisait envie。 Le résumé m’a de suite attiré， j’ai eu l’impression qu’une histoire pleine de mystères m’attendait et je ne me suis pas trompée sur ce coup là。 Ce premier tome est surprenant finalement。 Je ne m’attendais pas du tout à ce que ça prenne cette tournure là， pour être tout à fait honnête。 Mais ce n’est clairement pas déplaisant au final， j’ai même trouvé ça absolument génial。 Et puis， c’est le genre de manga qui vous donne envie de vous jet Encore une des sorties assez récentes qui me faisait envie。 Le résumé m’a de suite attiré， j’ai eu l’impression qu’une histoire pleine de mystères m’attendait et je ne me suis pas trompée sur ce coup là。 Ce premier tome est surprenant finalement。 Je ne m’attendais pas du tout à ce que ça prenne cette tournure là， pour être tout à fait honnête。 Mais ce n’est clairement pas déplaisant au final， j’ai même trouvé ça absolument génial。 Et puis， c’est le genre de manga qui vous donne envie de vous jeter sur la suite immédiatement！Dans ce premier tome， on se retrouve dans une ville sans rien， au milieu d’une vie quotidienne avec apparemment aucun signe de changement。 On va suivre le lycéen Reiji Kurose qui vivait « juste »。 Famille， rêves d’avenir， amis d’enfance。 Tous le liaient à cette ville。 Il pensait qu’il continuerait « juste » à vivre comme ça。 Jusqu’à ce qu’il la rencontre。 Y a-t-il de l’espoir à vivre？ Y a-t-il de la lumière qui l’attend？J’ai vraiment adoré ce premier tome。 L’ambiance est assez sombre au final et la vie du jeune Reiji n’a rien d’enviable。 Il vit dans une ville sans rien， il vit avec son frère qui reste enfermé tout le temps， sa grand-mère malade et sa mère qui s’occupe de cette dernière。 La vie familiale est compliqué et rajoutez à ça son « ami d’enfance » qui se sert de lui。。 C’est un personnage que j’ai trouvé touchant et qui m’a fait aussi beaucoup de peine finalement。 Il ne peut pas vraiment vivre sa propre vie， faire ce qu’il a vraiment envie de faire et j’en passe。 Et puis， un jour， il va rencontrer une personne qui va lui faire changer la vision des choses。 À partir de ce moment là， il va changer， il finit par entrevoir de l’espoir。 Peut être que finalement， il va réussir à se sortir de ce quotidien terne。 Je suis vraiment impatiente d’en découvrir encore plus， d’autant plus que le manga se termine sur une scène qui nous laisse en suspense。 On veut savoir la suite， on veut que tous ces mystères s’éclaircissent au final。。 C’est une vraie petite pépite qu’on a là！Un premier tome qui m’a totalement pris par surprise。 Je suis déjà plus qu’impatient de découvrir la suite de cette histoire。 Ce premier tome est vraiment génial à découvrir et on est directement pris dans l’histoire， c’est sombre， ça aborde des thèmes assez difficiles， c’est rempli de mystères。。 Je n’ai qu’une hâte avoir la second tome sous la main et le plus vite possible， j’ai tellement besoin d’en avoir plus maintenant。 Ce manga s’adresse à un public averti malgré tout， faites attention avant de vous lancer。 。。。more

Dreamsinabook Irene ，

Questo seinen drammatico/psicologico si apre con due volumi abbastanza diversi tra loro， il primo é caratterizzato da una visuale molto ristretta che non pensavo davvero si ampliasse così tanto nel secondo volume， devo ammettere che mi ha lasciata allibita。I rapporti tra i personaggi già nel secondo volume mostrano un intreccio molto complesso e forse fin troppo malato per i miei gusti， però la storia per ora mi attrae molto， vediamo come prosegue！

Printia_books ，

Es un manga bastante realista y lúgubre al mismo tiempo。 Nos presentan personajes que， por circunstancias de la vida， viven en un pueblo donde sus existencias se consumen， donde sólo les asolan los problemas。 En este tomo nos centramos en Nagi y Reiji， pero de forma superficial sobre todo en ella， ya que deja mucho por contar。 Sin embargo algo es evidente， ninguno de los dos quiere seguir así。

4。5⭐️

Blake Herondale ，

Es un manga un tanto curioso ya sea por la historia o por las ilustraciones。Me está pareciendo bastante interesante， ya que el tipo de personas que son los protas si los veo capaces de hacer cosas como la que planean

اون تنهایی و انزوا و افسردگی رو خیلی خوب به تصویر کشیده。 آرتش رو خیلی دوست دارم。 پلات هم تعلیق کافی داره。

Lau。 ，

No sé qué nota ponerle a este primer tomo， ya que me ha resultado extraño。El tema que trata me parece muy importante， pero no sé de qué manera va a ser llevado， así que supongo que seguiré leyendo para ver qué opino， de momento no ha estado mal， simplemente ha sido muy desconcertante。

nica ，

la base c’è per essere un buon psicologico ma secondo me il “fanservice” poteva essere evitato （anche se le scene esplicite di sesso mi hanno abbastanza stupito per essere classificato seinen）。 Il tutto è salvato dalla trama di mistero che c’è sia con il suo ex compagno di classe e sia tra la idol e il “barbone”… aspetto il prossimo volume per vedere se ne vale la pena o meno

elio ，

It is a great idea， but why did the author wrote/draw so many sexual actions？ They weren´t important for the storytime and made the manga pretty weird。 Wouldn´t recommend。

Becky Chen ，

莫名想起《不道德的秘密》，會想繼續追下去，日本漫畫的慘綠少年是否無論再絕望都會想摸胸部以及為了摸胸部活下去。

Primer tomo de boys abyss y promete。 Es una historia inusual con unos personajes inusuales también pero que hace que quieras saber más de ellos， su historia y cómo se va desarrollar esta。 No puedo decir mucho porque solo es un tomo， pero me está gustando。

Ganyu ，

Quite a lot to take in if you read this coming in blind。 Entrancing as it is depressing， the dark themes and shocking revelations make you want to know more， eventually falling deeper into the abyss。
