I assume this was suppose to be more of a supplement to the novel as it really cannot stand up by itself. Don't waste your time unless you're an emotional sap that cries over dead bugs and broken pencils since I can't imagine anyone else being moved by this version.

Terrible

The "art" is god awful and the romance paper thin. You'd think with so many romance+deadly disease stories out there they could copy tropes better than this. Manga has never been strict on human proportions but the terribly square figures of the characters makes me wonder how this ever got published.

Wasn't as good as it could have been

Both the movies My Girl and I (Korean) and Sekai no Chuushin de, Ai o Sakebu (Japanese, same title) had much more impact than this manga did.

I felt that the mangaka artist tried too hard to make the emotion clear when, if they just could have kept it simple, would have made it a lot better. It seemed there was no emotion from the main protagonists - they just accepted the fate and moved on until the end.

At least in the movies, they were more distraught about this kind of thing, I suppose. Either way, it was an all right read, but it didn't make me sob or anything.

Heart-Touching

It's actually really good; one of the more sad manga I've read and I'm impressed. Most Shoujo can get really annoying, and usually I tend to prefer a fast-paced shounen manga, but this was great! It was touching, and one of the few manga that made me cry. The art wasn't the best, but I was sucked into the cute romance and cried as Aki had her final moments, even though the pictures were really... bleh...

My favorite thing was the "darkness", and I couldn't help but be cheered up when the colour of the sky returned.

One of the best manga I've read, and I strongly recomend it.

It wasn't that sad or even touching at all. I felt they tried very hard to make it a story with meaning but ultimately, there just weren't enough moments and events to really convey their feelings for one another. Instead, what we got was a chunk of narration from his perspective and some tidbits of her feelings for him.

And to me, the worst parts of the story were these:

a) that the writer decided to kill her off without giving any chances or conditions to fight for her survival. If she'd a sibling or even someone from whom she could get a bone marrow transplantation, she might have survived.

b) that Aki decided to accept her fate and just let death claim her, without attempting to seek a solution or find a way out.

If this was supposedly a story about how her death affected him, it sure wasn't much of one at all.
