Definitely a book I was hoping to re-read before posting my review because there was certainly a lot to take in as there always is with alternate universes but I didn't have enough time this weekend. Still, despite having to encounter new words for new devices and such I enjoyed this first volume and am sure as with many books things will become clearer once I get my hand on the second volume. Arata (the both of them) are two distinctly different characters with their own set of problems and unusually (in stories) things don't instantly get better once they venture off to the other side of the fence. For one boy's case his life just gets strange as he faces technologies he's never seen before and for another boy his life just gets worse as he tries to stay alive.
I didn't completely love it as I did with Watase's older works, it reminded me of Fushigi Yugi a lot, but the art is still as beautiful and the humour still present ^_^.
