How does this manga keep CONSISTENTLY topping its predecessor? How???
Ludicrous!
This was the most emotional and heart wrenching volume-and my favourite! Lots of societal commentary and that has been present since volume one. Hell the very synopsis will tell you what you’re walking into, but my gosh is it eloquently done.
You fall in love with the characters. You question the protagonists! You question if the system is working and if they can survive without it. We see that is important. People need oxygen, and there are no other ways to get it.
Ahhhh!!!
Ivy. My heart is breaking. That entire backstory. Tears. Do you hear me? Tears. We take simple things like being and to read and have imagination for granted but many people don’t have the access to these resources.
Everyone needs to read this manga. It’s so good. It’s so good. Now I have to wait until March when volume 8 drops.

yeah i DID cry at this one. mukuru and shiika's story hit like a TRUCK and finally getting to see "ivy" as the little kid he is just makes it so tragic. and the idea of "knowledge" and "imagination" being the keys to such happiness UGH. WONDERFUL. the action and plot around this heartbreaking story is also awesome. i love this serious omg

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!

Our main characters finally board a train to find Kudai after he disappeared 40 years ago, and are met with the challenge of moral trivia, and a very upset Muruku.
The emotions in this volume are TENSE, against the complexities of sacrifice, the morally ambiguous justification of selfishness, what will we find in the "richness" of our characters hearts through these conflicting pursuits?
This was the character development I was looking for, the kind of conflict I was looking for, it all happens right here in this volume.
From Murukus backstory of wanting to save his sister, give her candy, and escape from Paupertown, to Toshiro protecting Yumiko while comforting Muruku but still pursues violence, to Toshiro "dying" and is found in the most beautiful field of flowers which was visually stunning, this volume brought out what I love about these characters the most.
I'm super excited for when the next volume releases, and this might be the first series where I read the rest that's online because I'm dying to know what happens next

3.75, with emotion being the redeeming quality in this issue, balancing out nicely all that action that, thankfully, was less prominent and also a bit less confusing this time (but still...).
With Ivy back in play, we get to see the background story of the killer spiriflora, with Shiika and Mukuru being the main attraction in volume 7.
We also get an intriguing end, which is the reason while I just go ahead and read volume 8 right away, to see if hopefully things keep up, or they just slide back down to the non-stop confusing action and political intrigue.

這集又精彩起來
殺一人，救百人的道德困境
還沒有給出作者的答案
但感覺劇情已開始落入俗套
總之期待下集

I think this might be the most heart-wrenching manga series I know.

F*cking amazing!!!

Is it bad to say I support Mukuru killing everyone and everything? His backstory had me sobbing and then the last five pages or so of this volume were somehow even more painful 😭

Nouveau jackpot pour moi avec ce tome. J’adore la manière de Kasumi Yasuda d’écrire l’action et de l’allier avec son histoire si sombre et dramatique. A l’heure où parfois la SF est trop conceptuelle et pas assez vivante parfois, je me régale dans ce divertissement également intelligent.
C’est l’heure de la confrontation. Nos héros se retrouve face à celui qui est présenté depuis plusieurs tomes comme leur ennemi : Ivy. Dans un schéma associant émotion, révélation et action l’auteur m’a scotchée de bout en bout. J’ai adoré suivre ce moment qui pourtant est assez classique et prévisible quand on y réfléchit, mais quand c’est bien fait, on ne boude pas son plaisir !
J’ai juste eu du mal au démarrage avec d’un coup une avalanche de noms que je ne situais pas. Merci les lectures espacées et l’absence de pages récapitulant qui est qui, ou juste de résumé… Mais une fois l’action démarrée, impossible de lâcher. L’auteur a un sacré sens du rythme. Il alterne entre attaque personnelle, duel, plongée dans les souvenirs, donc séquence émotion, voire drame, puis combat à nouveau, intervention inattendue, pouvoir qui déraille et j’en passe. C’est de haut vol.
Le sujet, lui, reste le même. Il est juste approfondi et un peu plus richement illustré d’un nouvel exemple, celui de ce qui est arrivé à Ivy et sa soeur, déclenchant cette vague de violence. Mais bien sûr on découvre quelque chose de plus complexe derrière avec cette organisation et ce professeur friand d’expérimentation. On est ainsi totalement dans le genre d’univers que j’adore où on dénonce la terrible pauvreté, les ravages des changements climatiques, mais également le fossé entre riches et pauvres, faibles et puissants. A nouveau cela n’a rien d’original mais ça vient nous percuter juste comme il faut, avec une belle émotion honnête et sincère qui fait mal. L’histoire d’Ivy est poignante.
En plus d’avoir un univers soigné et richement développé, une intrigue rythmée et pleine d’action, il faut avouer que je ne suis pas insensible au trait de l’auteur que je trouve d’une très belle noirceur, avec un côté polar noir américain très bien assimilé et mélangé à cette SF limite cyberpunk organique qui peut faire penser à Otomo mais également à Tajima (MPD Psycho) et Ishida (Tokyo Ghoul). Ça me régale les rétines ! J’ai donc pris une petite claque en suivant dans ce tunnel de métro le combat percutant de ce tome où tiges folles et racines prédictives venaient s’associer pour nous offrir des scènes hallucinantes.
Avec une belle et rare maîtrise, Kasumi Yasuda transcende des classiques de SF et de polar pour nous offrir un récit toujours plus nerveux, porté par un dessin et un univers très noir, qu’il développe dans la bonne direction. L’affrontement tant attendu est parfaitement à la hauteur et les ramifications qui naissent ici sont dramatiques et intrigantes pour la suite, donnant envie d’aller toujours plus loin dans ce sombre univers. Une vraie belle réussite dont on devrait plus parler ! Amateurs de SF et de polar, réveillez-vous !
