Es uno de los tomos con los mejores paneles, me encanta el dibujo. Ya pensaba que se parecía a Gantz y con cierto personaje es imposible no compararlos.

don’t know if I’m just frustrated bc it seems like we’re rushing thru this whole pre-k2 part or bc im the perfect target audience for this manga and just haven’t gotten my personal character development arc yet. is it bad that I feel betrayed by the fact that bro resolved everything by getting married??? idk im conflicted I need to ponder

Absolutely brilliant

[Dani Wladdimiro · Rating 4 out of 5]

La historia es un cliché, pero funciona de manera efectiva. Nos presenta a un personaje que, con el paso de los años, se ha ido aislando socialmente y ha encontrado refugio en las montañas, donde se siente en paz, lejos de la desconfianza que le genera la gente. En un giro significativo, se reencuentra con una chica a la que salvó de la muerte en sus solitarias montañas. Este encuentro despierta en él sentimientos completamente nuevos, más allá del entendimiento que tenía del alpinismo. Poco a poco, Mori se deja abrazar por sus emociones, enfrentando al "monstruo" que lo había marcado profundamente.

Como menciono, la historia es clásica, sin grandes giros inesperados. Sin embargo, el simbolismo es poderoso. Al sacarse la foto de su matrimonio, la cuerda en su cuello refleja la necesidad de "matar" su pasado, de desprenderse de ese peso emocional para renacer como una nueva persona. ¿Es poético? Muchísimo. Y también muy hermoso, porque finalmente Mori encuentra lo que siempre había buscado: sentirse aceptado.

No las tenía todas conmigo de seguir esta obra, ya que ha habido varios tomos seguidos que notaba que no se avanzaba nada. Sin embargo, con este tomo se vuelve a la esencia real de esta historia. Me encanta cómo ha transmitido la tensión en los momentos más extremos de la escalada. Por ahora continuaré teniendo la esperanza de seguir viendo sufrir a Buntaro 😂

"Forse non smetterò mai si scalare..."
"Non è pretendere un po' troppo? Tu scali mettendo in palio la tua vita, non ti sei mai risparimato nemmeno nel lavoro e ora vuoi addirittura essere felice come tutti gli altri?"
"Posso farcela."
Let me breath questo manga mi sta logorando come farò senza?

Really great rock climbing manga, pretty great art and loving the story so far😁😻🧗‍♂️🧗‍♀️

[Andy Febrico Bintoro · Rating 3 out of 5]

Well, the conversations and the texts became less and less. Seems this is the way the main character live his life. But the time also seems flowing in the flash, from 2000-3000 meters to 8000 meters.

You’ll get there faster alone - Mori

[Lewis Bennetts · Rating 5 out of 5]

this may be peak fiction

[Caleb Benjamin · Rating 3 out of 5]

The storytelling got very fast and random out of nowhere. It’s interesting.

[Claudio · Rating 5 out of 5]

“The joy of having reached the peak always comes at this moment… Hana, I want to see you soon”

[Pedro Faria · Rating 5 out of 5]

I don't feel good about this. I have the sinking feeling something is very, very wrong.

surprisingly wholesome, this defo won’t last

[Gerson · Rating 4 out of 5]

Mori se casó. Me alegra que ya no sienta que siempre estará solo, pero ahora tiene que volver a casa y eso le quita libertad para escalar. Ojalá no sea un problema después.

[Kynthos-the-Archer (Kyn) · Rating 5 out of 5]

Another exciting installment. This time, Mori challenges Nanga Parbat of Pakistan also known as "The Killer Mountain".

His love life has blossomed, he is finally settling down and building a family of his own. Although he has yet to give up his mountaineering life.

Un peu plus brouillon au niveau de la découpe générale de l'histoire mais toujours quelques moments très intenses qui valent le détour.
