Man I loved this series...
The reason I picked this up is because I watched the anime series, and I wanted to get a taste of the series before the Infinity Train comes out in fall.
At first I wasn't impressed with the art style and how quickly the chapters went (it felt like the first 20 chapters was the whole anime). But then I got into the part of the series that hasn't been animated.
HOLY CRAP.
Maybe watching the anime first made me think "Ahhhh, this isn't going to be good" BUT as soon as you get onto that train with the gain you hit an emotional roller coaster that takes you on a funky ride through the whole series.
After completing the series I went back and read the first few chapters, and I don't know what I was thinking??? I guess watching the anime really does effect how you feel about the manga (same with movie series with books I guess?!).

My only wish is that there was more romance by the end... I hope a special chapter comes out in the future showing how the relationship of all the characters ended up (and YES, they did KIND OF show that at the end... buuuutttt showing future generations does nothing for me! I want to see THE MAIN CHARACTERS and how they ended up gaahahahahha).

I'll be suggesting this series to my friends for sure!
