It has aged beautifully, due to many themes that are as relevant today as they were after the economic bubble burst: loneliness and yearning for connection, individualism and agency, miscommunication, consumerist culture at odds with tradition, and a recurring motif of duality\u2026 Curiously, this manga first reached foreign audiences in the form of a two-part OVA that only featured bits and pieces of the original.
