JUST READ AND COMMIT THE MIRACLE!

This is LITERALLY the BEST manga I've ever read. It just take 3 chapters for you to know how GREAT this manga is, I'm the smartest person in the world, so I kept reading and it was just getting BETTER!

The story is about so much, I may be the "smartest person in the world", but I'm constantly thinking about the themes and messages of the series. But we have a boy who is fanatic about Papico [an adult film star going through hard times with her family and the media constantly harassing her] and wants to surpass his fathers standards and legacy and become his own person. Through an odd meet-up at the end of the first chapter their fates are intertwined with the odd sci-fi journey ahead of them. The best part about these characters are their relationships and experiences. They act like proper human beings, the scenes by the restaurant and the bath take their time to introduce themselves to the reader and develop them as people. This manga is about their relationship and growth, which is outstandingly written and has outstanding development.

The art may look pretty at the beginning, but it gets so much better as it goes on. Oku's CGI work and paneling is beautiful, I heavily recommend reading how he does his paneling and art, he's very ahead of his time. He tries many angles and compositions, it's outstanding how he's able to get this high quality of art out in such a short time. Easily some of the best of the industry.

But the best part must be the author referencing his other works throughout the manga. He makes his characters say: "Hey, have you ever read Gantz or Inuyashiki? IT'S REALLY GREAT!". These scenes are great, they're really funny and keep it charming in it's own way. Oku's very self aware in his writing and knows how goofy a story may seem to an average reader, in it for the action. Yet in a way the references also stay in line with the themes of the story.

So, plot? There is tons!
Characters? Outstanding, they act as real and natural as anyone would in these situations.
Narrative? Masterfully written, there is a huge sense of progression and evolution between the characters!
Antagonist? Tons! The series takes its roots from classic Tokusatsu series like Ultraman and Gridman, while also giving commentary about the nature of human beings, society, and the media.

If you really love manga as a whole and wants to make your soul feel purified, this is the manga for you!
