I was expecting this to be incredibly depressing, but instead it actually turned out to be very heartwarming. I'm glad they made it like that.

 

[Kousora]

This is the heartwarming version of Black Mirror.

 

[Catsuey]

Definitely thought this would be another DUDE TECHNOLOGY IS BAD LMAO but it's nice to see a positive spin on a hyper-advanced civilization

 

[Shinramyun]

Yeah, this was nice.

A manga that takes commonly dystopian ideas and gives them a positive spin that feels realistic. It is a breath of fresh air that I didn't know I needed.

1st chapter was a great hook to the series. I expected I would hate the old lady by the end of the chapter, but instead she actually became an inspiration to Kaori and her words of encouragement at the end - which might as well have been aimed at us readers instead of just solely to Kaori - made me smile and even tear up a bit. It's actually more difficult to write a good short story that's also genuinely positive-minded like that.

Despite the ominous description, it's a surprisingly wholesome manga. It can be characterised fairly as technooptimistic, but it focuses on human stories much more than on technology.

 

[fitizen]

Hidden gem and a fantastic take on the usual depressing futuristic look that some authors write.

Refreshing. It reminds me of American science fiction from the mid-20th century, especially with regard to the latter's optimism and confidence in the human intellect.

 

[VastFrogJail]

I had forgotten how good this is.

Wow. A really nice take on near future that avoids both far utopianism and dystopianism, and just is really, really human. Optimism but also realism about the human condition.

 

[djtws4e]

avoided a lot of the tropes i was expecting, this was refreshing

 

[Kreepo12351]

A good read, would reccomend

 

[1234muse]

bittersweet fantasy stories about prices paid, and progress. a brighter take on the classic sci-fi anthology

 

[Beregorn]

Surprisingly optimistic, considering the synopsis. Definitely worth the read
