Giunge finalmente a conclusione la sofisticata serie di Fuyumi Soryo ambientata nello star system nipponico degli anni '80!La raffinata autrice di Mars, Es e Cesare riannoda i fili della vicenda in un finale ricco di emozioni: un excursus affascinante in un mondo dorato ma a volte spietato, quello del music business, fatto di carriere effimere e valori 'usa e getta'. La trama imbastita dalla Soryo narra di amori guadagnati e persi sullo sfondo di canzoni senza tempo: come si concluderà la storia di Rino, giovane idol dal futuro incerto, e Kei, chitarrista tanto dotato di carisma sul palco, quanto anonimo tra i banchi di scuola? Un'opera imprescindibile per tutti i fan di quest'autrice sensazionale!

This is a quite conventional story: a girl and a guy meet in the high school context, they have the common love for music and they start to frequent each other and go through a serie of events in their lives that bring them both closer together and more apart. Nothing so strange so far.
The first four numbers are indeed quite good, although they are the ones describing the more standard part of the story. What I like the most is the depth of the characters, the way their are drawn and especially, the way their feelings are depicted.
However, when the characters start to grow up (in the last numbers) the story gets strangely enough more trivial and quite weird. It is just a continuous "pull and leave" that after a while gets redundat and tiring. Still, the drawings keep being very good, but the story loses its charm and heads towards a very expected end.
