COCYTUS PART
Cocytus has 2 chapters. The main characters are Shiina and Kurosaki Mineko. In her school, the students there have unspoken rule to not befriend with persons who are considering as weirdos. Alas Shiina is asked by the teacher to help the class representative, Kurosaki-san, who's belong to the weirdos-that-shouldn't-have-befriended list.

Starting from the art, this manga has very simple art. I couldn't find the background to support my poor imagining capability is decent. In so many cases, the background of it left blank with only sparkling effect to maximize the aura between the characters interaction. I can agree with the characters parts, their illustrations looked cute.
Similar to the art, the development too, is simple. It's not complex even though it can be explored more depth, the story itself and characters development. For 2 chapters, the rushing part still I could tolerate at that time because somehow I enjoyed the puppy love in the pages.


MORATORIUM PART
Moratorium part has 3 chapters, 2 main chapters and 1 chapter from another character side (still the character in this part). There are Itsuki and Mao who've been friends since so long and currently living together in a rented apartment. This part might be not too common like other yuri manga because it has less lovey-dovey scenes which is should be interesting to read since it's unique.
However, I am rather disappointing at it. The communication between those two are lack of passion and not much explained. On the surface we get the information we need about what's up. but not about what's really happening between them, that's what I felt. The timid Mao and bold Itsuki has tight connection shown in this manga that I couldn't get what kind of feeling it really is. Is it just desire to keep each other for themselves or deeper than it...still wondering.
The art itself is somewhat the same with Cocytus part. Fortunately, this school life babes (Itsuki & Mao) got their part to hang out around the city. So, we have more background than just house or school building.


Glad that I could still enjoy overall this manga that I could bravely give it 6.5 for rating.
