10/10! Full Marks! 100,000 Points! 💖🌟 I laughed, I cried, and I was gagged several times while reading this manga! 😆 This will definitely go on my list of books I think everyone should read at some point in their life! It’s fascinating the way Fujimoto blurs the lines between fiction and reality. Just when you think you know what’s going on and where the story’s going you find out that you actually don’t. 

There is such interesting commentary on life, death, the way we chose to remember the ones we lost, and how sometimes the memories we chose to keep and the way we view people through those memories blur the lines between reality and fiction. I’m not gonna say anymore than that though because I think everyone should go into this manga blind and experience it for themselves. ❤️🩵🩶🤍

I skipped "Chainsaw Man" and "Fire Punch" for this manga to see what I was getting myself into by reading Fujimoto's work, and wow!
Reading the description, I thought this was going to be another volume in the tear-jerker genre of manga ( think: Silent Voice ) but it had, as the protagonist describes it, "A pinch of fantasy"
The aspect of a story within a story, a clip that turns into a movie, and a girl that's a pretend vampire who then dies, but also might be a vampire?
Overall, a page-turner that puts the reader in a state of puzzlement almost placing yourself in the Yuta's shoes as the lines blur between what's real and what's on tape.
