I think it's a gorgeous comic, in story, in art, in character, in emotion. I borrowed it from the library, but it's one I'll need to pick up, even if I never make it through a reread, just to look at and page through from time to time, perhaps. Probably anyone who is interested has already read it, but if not, and you can handle the subject matter, I absolutely recommend it. The year has only begun, but it's maybe my favorite thing I've read so far. It is among my favorite things if I include everything I've ever read.

I still need to read orange: future, so no spoilers for that, please!

orange is available in the US from Seven Seas
