As we get closer and closer to the final showdown, the intensity progresses more and more. The plot doesn't let up one second, going from important backstories to heartbreaking character deaths, only to end with the saddest cliffhanger I've seen. I honestly can't expect anything of what's coming in the upcoming chapters, but I know I’m terrified of what the last chapters will offer.

The art matches perfectly the intensity of the plot. The eeriness of the art style always fits the horror aspect really well, but I was especially awed by the multiple paralleled between the fireworks and “Hikaru”’s true form.

All of this manages to grasp the reader’s heart—and potentially tear it to shreds. It’s so easy to empathize with these characters, and fall in love with them, even knowing things might not end happily for them.

Pacing feels weirder then Yoshiki felt while being stuffed full of Hikaru's body parts
