I really miss this manga, as it was probably my favourite of all time. The mangaka took a slightly silly, cliche trope and turned it into what I considered a masterpiece. When Hajime and Yayoi return and she sees the mother and daughter just prior to the fire bombing, everything turns into a bad child's drawing. I think it was when I first read this, several years ago, that I decided manga was an art form right up with novels and play scripts. I love the comedy and the jokes, but the understated and extremely well-done pathos has made this an absolute favourite. Please keep bringing us this fantastic story!
