ぶ厚い雲に覆われ、陽が差さなくなった遥か未来の地球。植物が枯れ、酸素も薄くなった世界。しかし人類は、人を植物に変える技術を開発し、わずかな酸素を作り出して生き延びていた。

アイヴィーを生んだ転花という非人間的制度は、果たしてこの世界に必要なのか？ その疑問を持つ者たちが信念を持って、トーシローたち転花院に襲いかかる。
そしてヨミコは、襲いくる転花反対派らを罠に嵌めるため、転花院で待ち受けることに。転花制度をめぐり、壮絶な戦いが幕を開ける。
その結末に、果たして勝者はいるのだろうか…？

The anti-flowering team launch a devious counter-attack which compromises Yomiko's entire plan. Or not.
Lots of tension and bloody action in this volume. Although the narration remains at a very, very high level, I did notice a slight loss of legibility during some particularly intense battles.
The next volume promises answers... I can't wait

This manga gets better with EVERY volume!!
I love the characters! I love the plot! I love the motivation.
The antagonists are well written, and you know what? They are justified in their emotions and dare I say, their actions? Freedom/change is never earned through peaceful negotiations. The protagonists are morally grey as well, and they don’t shy away from that. Well, at least Yomiko is now willing to admit that the train is mowing down people. She questions her normal - that she WILLINGLY, turned a blind eye to all these years. Silence is also complicity! Not only was she silent, but she was quite literally the hand that actively carried out these surgeries.
“These people have to keep dying for years…”
Phew. Some powerful stuff being spilt here! Cannot wait to pick up the next volume. First, though, I have to disgust this one. This is a read you have to take time to sit on. You cannot rush through it. Munch on it and savour each bite.
Heavy recommend to everyone.

Fool Night Review
5/5 stars
This will be a spoiler free review. Onto the review!
I am so excited to tell you all about this manga series. I discovered it on a whim and it was really good. It’s set in a future version of earth where we’ve nearly run out of clean air due to pollution. In response to this, the government has decided that if you are terminally ill or very old and going to die soon, you can choose to have this medical procedure done that will turn you into a plant. It doesn’t happen instantaneously. You gradually transform over a few months until you eventually lose your ability to walk around and then your consciousness as well.
Our main character is a boy in high school who is trying to hold down a full time job in order to afford his mother’s life saving medication. I don’t remember if it ever says what specifically she has, but some of the symptoms include memory loss and anger, which will get worse if she doesn’t have her medication. This kid’s job doesn’t even come close to covering her medication’s cost, plus rent and food, so he’s had to make a lot of sacrifices to try and support both of them.
After running out of money and losing his latest job because they don’t want to keep a teenager employed who is skipping school to work, he is forced to resort to drastic measures. Typically, you can only sign up to be turned into a plant if you are dying, because doing so comes with a huge payout, similar to how doctors will pay people to test new medications and experimental surgeries.
He lies about his health and somehow manages to get scheduled for the operation, which provides just enough money to cover his mother’s medication for a little while. After that, he’s going to have to figure out what to do, because eventually he’ll become a plant and won’t be able to work to support her.
It’s at this point that the medical company that performed his surgery discovers that there is a plant going around killing people. The main character ends up getting wrapped up in all this, because he discovers that he can understand the thoughts of plant people that are so far gone that they are no longer able to speak. At first, he’s just working with clients, helping them identify their loved ones who had gone through the plant transformation process, but then once the killer plant starts to become more active, he ends up getting involved in that.
I’ve only read the first four volumes of this series, because it’s very new. I cannot wait to see where this series goes. I’m not sure how long the mangaka is planning on making it, but I hope it goes on for a while. There are a lot of great themes in here that deserve to be fully explored. I think the people who would most enjoy this are people who really like the movies made by Satoshi Kon. I recently watched Perfect Blue for the first time and it reminded me of the storytelling style of this series a lot.
Have a nice day/night everyone!

2.75, and I am not really enjoying this series much anymore. Probably because, as I mentioned in my review for the previous volume, things are focusing too much in the action and political conspiracy part of the story, with a lot of the emotion and sci-fi element being lost in the process.
Volume 6 was particularly thick-layered in action, which I find often confusing, especially when combined with this type of art, and not very fulfilling in any way.
So I will keep reading since I have the next two issues already at home, but this is just not working for me anymore, and less and less with every passing volume.

3.5 stars.
you can tell there was a lot of thought put into this part about how it would work on-screen and while it would be undoubtedly great it's not quite to the on-page standard of the rest of the series up to now. still good though

Que voilà de la SF d’anticipation comme j’aime ! C’est stressant, c’est cinématographique, c’est percutant et c’est bourré de réflexions, excellent !
Tel un film de David Fincher, ce tome de Fool Night nous offre une action décomplexé et bourrée de violence, avec une mise en scène de haut vol, rendant la lecture décapante et impitoyable. J’ai adoré ! On se retrouve dans le vif de l’action suite aux machinations de l’Institut et de leurs opposants qui passent à l’action de chaque côté, ce qui se termine par une rencontre violente et percutante qui laissera des traces.
C’est sous apnée que j’ai lu ce tome, tant je retenais mon souffle pendant l’attaque calibrée de l’Institut par leurs opposants qui se sont infiltrés au milieu d’une mission de contrôle de celui-ci. Entre machination et contre machination, l’auteur mêle astucieusement les désirs de nos héros de piéger et faire sortir de sa tanière le professeur à l’origine d’Ivy, et les passés de chacun, notamment ceux de Kanaeno et Akira, désormais au coeur de la lutte. Se retrouve cette question fondamentale pour l’univers de la justification et de la nécessité de la transfloraison et l’auteur ne nous offre aucune réponse facile, c’est encore et toujours à nous de chercher dans quel camp nous placer, chacun ayant ses casseroles. J’aime cette finesse.
Pour autant, nous sommes aussi ici dans un tome un peu bourrin où ça tranche et ça cogne à tout va, et on aime ça ! Parce que c’est bien fait, bien écrit, bien rythmé, bien mis en scène. Comme je le disais plus haut, on se croirait dans un film de Fincher tant les séquences se suivent, s’enchaînent et se découpent de manière originales et percutantes sans nous laisser de répit au milieu de cette folie ambiante où la menace est partout et où un petit groupe de mercenaires tente à tout prix de protéger Akira et les informations dont il est le porteur. Je me suis régalée !
Fool Night déploie un talent fou de tome en tome pour créer cet univers d’anticipation de lutte sociale contre une technologie qui a transformé la société et dont certains ne veulent plus. Ici, c’est violent, percutant et ultra prenant car la lutte s’incarne dans un affrontement sans pitié au sein de l’Institut. C’est malin, c’est extrêmement bien mis en scène et totalement décoiffant. On en redemande !
