-SPOILERS- heh.. sorry

Don't get me wrong, I love this series. It just kind of went downhill after the Goldy Pond Arc for me. The Goldy Pond Arc was exciting and full of action and I loved that. The characters introduced in that Arc were super cool. Later in the story, they kind of became background characters though. Same with Ray.

After the two year time skip (or however long), it started getting rushed. Like next thing you know, the shelter gets blown up and two beloved characters DIE. :( Next they run into two of Norman's allies and they bring them back to Norman's hideout. Though the reuniting was very heartwarming, since they haven't seen each other for years. We get introduced to Norman's squad. They just become background characters like everyone else. Hearing a brief, short summary about how Norman escaped and how he got to where he was, makes you feel like that would of been a great arc to be written in the story and a wasted opportunity.

Before I knew it, I was forced upon the Seven Walls Arc. It was a difficult chapter for me to follow along in. Then not so long after, Norman's plan came into motion and the manga just got crazy. Most of the time I was reading, I had to go back to make sure I was reading it correctly.

The return to Grace Field House had so much going on in it and it was so rushed. Yes, the reunion with Isabella, Phil, and all the kids was super heart warming and then the author just had to pull that stunt. -.-

The ending of the book was super sad but yet again, rushed. I would've liked to see more on how they adjusted to the human world, instead of a quick three or so panels giving a brief summary. It was the right thing to have Ray be the first one to spot Emma since they were together the most and went though a lot.

Overall, I have mixed feelings, but I still liked the manga. Did I love it? At first, yes I did, but it just kind of went downhill.

Hopefully the anime will fix the patches and not make it so rushed. I would of loved to see how Norman escaped, hopefully the anime can incorporate that. The anime will always have a special place in my heart though.

(my first review e.e, sorry if its bad lol)
