Summary: I like it
Review: As with everyone else this manga caught my eye because the art looks reminiscent of some other very good manga. I baught this based off of the art but I'm glad I did because the story seems interesting. I starts off with what appears to be a flashback of some sort and then comes to the present where the main character,Kenta Akagi, is working at a pizza shop and he is older than he was in the flashback. As I kept reading I began to get a feeling that the "flashbacks" aren't necessarily flashbacks but maybe a look into another world or life where Kenta exists apart from the Kenta in the "present" but the "past" Kenta somehow shares memories with the "present" Kenta. There also seem to be connections between the "flashbacks" and the "present." For example a girl named Kano appears in the "flashbacks" while in the "present" Kenta comes in contact with a little girl who looks similar to the Kano in the "flashbacks" but appears to be much younger in age. This all seemed very intriguing, and so I look forward to the future installments of this series so that I may get my questions answered.

Summary: A Well-Rounded Story for the Child in All of Us
Review: I picked up this manga after a long time of debating myself at my local borders store but I'm extremely glad I had the chance to read it and own it. The artwork is beautiful and very reminiscent of several other artists but the overall effect is more powerful than most people would expect.

The main character, Kenta Akagi, is introduced as a boy who spends much of his time at an amusement park where a young girl named Kano Mutsuki works. after a short introduction, the story brings itself several years later when Kenta is working at a pizza parlor as a delivery boy. Destiny eventually brings him face to face with the reality that he is to be used to incite the powers of a character called Meme (who bears a striking resemblance to Kano except she looks much younger). Souvenirs from his time with Kano, both physical and in memory, help bring about the circumstances for him to face his destiny as the "Reactor."

Summary: What a wild Ride
Review: Talk about wonderful. When I picked up this manga, I did so because I thought the art was wonderful, little did I know that the story was even better. Complex and cute, that is how I would describe it. The story revolves around a young boy who works at a pizza place and who gets intagled with some strange visitors not from his world. With flashbacks to a past he doesn't quite remember he comes face to face with a sleeping girl who only he can wake.

This volume sets you up for a interesting story to come. Comfusing at times since some of the flashbacks that you see don't corrispond with the present, but hopefully all will be resolved in further issues. Until then I recommend this for all those who love a mystery to solve. By far the best manga I have read!!!!
