Hear me out, It would have been resolved in earlier chapters if Reiji just choose the best possible actions and think less about his family or Gen or Chako. Well I cant entirely blame him, he has no foundation and has a very pessimistic view of himself. The problem is his being hypocrite to himself, and I found absolutely beautiful about that. He IS a Human Being, a more broken one. What comes to after those chapters are the amplication of that flaw and his inconsistent choices, which further made him drawn even deeper as he engage with more characters and saw a MORE BROKEN CIRCUMSTANCE HE IS IN TO. Like his world cracked, then it disintegrated.
I know this story is not perfect and far from it, but, if your empathy was triggered in the earlier chapters, you know you C A N N O T S T A P H from reading this trainwreck. Not for wishing Reiji happiness but because the anticipated conclusion of the characters. Its like watching a burning train accelerating at 350 kmph AND RUNNING TOWARDS IT.
A solid 9.
