Can't say I was the biggest fan of how this series went. It definitely was on the path to being axed because they did the timeskip, and the whole "Alice won" right before it.

But I guess in the end, it had a ending of some sort.

Damn.. I was kinda hoping for something more. I enjoyed the art and how the plot started at least.

This manga jumped the shark with the suicide bomber child rape and then went course correction too hard with twist after twist after twist. Wasted potential I would say.

welp, its over.
wasn't really a fan of the initial direction the story headed, did not like the whole "everything was actually the bad guys plan all along, nothing you've done actually had an impact to the outcome". like its...ok, but I honestly would have rather spent that time reading a cookie-cutter isekai.

Absolutely mid manga that tried way too hard to be edgy, with a braindead MC.

I don't feel like the author was ever malicious or trying to do anything in bad faith, but it never really seemed like the author knew where to go with this series. First it's weird romance. Then there's some intrigue. Then suddenly it's an extremely dark and fucked up horror series with an AI undergoing rampancy... But not actually haha! And then it's guerilla cyberwarfare with brainwashed sex slave suicide bombers!... haha maybe not! and then it's actually about religion and how we live in a society. And then the main character grows old and dies.

What was the point? The genre was all over the place and the story glanced at some interesting topics to consider, but it never really seemed to have a point. Just some stuff happening until the axe dropped all at once.

I feel like this series kind of became a mess of unlived up to potential. At a certain point it wasn't really a weird romance any more and it also lost any psychological horror and conspiracy aspects that it could have.

The shadowy evil organization never amounted to anything except inciting incident for Alice. Alice only mattered to explain how Raputa came to be and setup stuff for the timeskip and last two chapters which didn't amount to much.

The fact that Raputa was still only loyal to Kei for the entirety of the time skip but also didn't talk to him is weird, but goes further into the fact Raputa never grew as a person as called out with Kei saying she still didn't understand death. And by the end I have no idea if Kei cares about her or is just with her because he feels guilty for the deaths she caused.

At the end just feel odd. It is like there was a lot of wasted potential for dozens of different stories that never went anywhere.

I am disappointed so much i like the art and the start but mannnnnn it took the worst possible turn.
If it continued the way it started ,it could be honestly something pretty good but ..... It didnt stay that.
It went with the most overcomplicated and dumb direction.
Like why?
Why did author thought that child sex bombers was a good thing?
Why make the "everything you did was actually part of the bad guys plan" which is honestly one of my less favorite twist but at the end it said that the twist was part of Raputa's plan ??? Like wtf is this?
It doesn't even make sense.

Anyways it started as 7 or 8/10 but it went down to 4/10. Only redeeming quality is the art.
Wasted potential and it waste my time sad to say it.
