Manga review: "Boku dake ga inai machi"

"Boku dake ga inai machi" also known as "Erase"? Anyway it's a really good thriller which I couldn't stop reading all day. Even at work... It's short so it's easy to read. I read it on Mangasee but I would actually like to buy it. It's hard to find good manga that isn't explicitly violent or sexual. But this one is great! I loved the character development too, it's very good! It shows how much simple choices or chances taken can change your life & your personality can blossom. This isn't the main focus really though. It's a series of disappearing children in a boy's neighbourhood although it doesn't start like that. They use a lot of time flashbacks so be prepared, but it's easy to keep up. Apparently this is on Crunchyroll as an anime but I kinda feel weird because the director said some stuff I disagree with. Anyway I might watch it but here in Japan, Crunchyroll is heavily blocked. I will probably have to wait til I go back to NZ in a year or two.
