It doesn't make sense at all why the town citizens didn't leave at all. All of this happened over a long time. The mangaka didn't explain why the spiral even forms. It made me feel like I wasted my time reading this pointless story.

I know it's not like me to get angry over something like this but... What the literal fuck?! I loved the manga, it was amazing, but an explanation would have been nice, and the ending was romantic and wonderful and all... but... Ugh. Forget it. Over all it was a really great manga, despite the ending.

My first thoughts when I saw Kirie and Shuichi hug... YAY! They turned into a n evil crazy Sea Snake!!! XD So why were that Spiral ruins.. or even that Spiral twon... or Spiral stairs build for? Who knows... the Mangaka never told us why they were built.... But one think is for sure... just as hazumuchan pinted out... It pretty much symbolizes the cycle of Life and Death.... Can mean something else... like we have space as much as the spiral can give us... In fact that's pretty much the reason why the Row Houses were built the way they were... But definitely the weirdst place out of everywhere was DragonFly Pond.... a pond... with endless water... yeah sure...



The ending was romantic... maybe not the bet... but it somehow makes it original... I liked the Underground Spiral City.. if someone offered me a space inside it I'd love to take it hahahaha... That big eye like the Lighthouse Light was amazingly stunning... I loved that double spread....



Signs,

Green

Poor Mitsuo. Kirie said she'd come back for him but she never can.



Is she dead or alive? She's "frozen in time" or something, until the spiral awakens again. Or something like that.



And I didn't get one part - as they're walking through the row house spiral they have to go through the row house at one point. As they do, Chie suddenly gets caught in the woodwork, which begins to stand up on its own (?). And then she gets trapped in there. I was like "what?" Did the ugly spiral people trap her or what?



Then after that suddenly all the row houses are empty. Huh?



I guess it's just Uzumaki~

Oh, well, that's a weird manga.

I know it doesn't explain anything at all and lacks totally of common sense, but I liked it some way. I think if the author try to explain, would just mess up even more, you know? Because nothing makes sense, like, snail people, c'mon! But is creepy and interesting in a really weird way.



I don't think I wasted my time reading, has some good stories, if you analyse it one by one. The end is not terrible too, I totally wanted Kirie and Suichi out of the town (they survived until now, they could make it somehow...), but I liked both died together (that hug was the best part, wish it was a full-page image).



So, I will give 8/10, because it made me laugh and feel disgusted at the same time, has a incredible art (man, those spirals are cool) and it made me dream with cannibal schoolmates when I read it before going to sleep.
