![]() ![]() ![]() It’s a bit of a surprise seeing no reviews when this thing’s been out for 8 or 9 years. Overall, a great manga that I'll be coming back to in the future. I thought the final large event was also a little contrived but I can understand wanting to have a dramatic finale. The weakest parts of the manga were definitely portions of the candidacy story, I felt it was getting too drawn out at times. Of course, the series of coincidences that drag him along follow that same pattern of realistic/suspension of disbelief. Ijuuin's situation deteriorates further to the point where his unluckiness becomes comical as he is continually dragged deeper into Asada's antics. His situation and reaction is perfectly reasonable he resents Asada for making chaos in the department and potentially screwing his own career prospects. So, an entire story is realized by using Asada passively.Įven characters that seem to be nothing but anti-entertainment, like Ijuuin's attitude at first, are actually central to what gives this manga its appeal. However, the audience is also able to empathize as we have been shown how much his mother means to him. Asada, featuring here only as a skilled surgeon, highlights the character of Kihara as envious but also shameless. However, when his mother is rushed in for surgery, he drops all of that to beg Asada to abandon his own surgery and save his mother instead. He resents Asada because of how he looks by comparison, as a surgeon and in his personal life. ![]() Really, Asada isn't even a focus but rather a means to showcase other characters the role is switched from the typical structure using the supporting cast to highlight the main character.Ī main example of this is Kihara's story. So, the story is about how others are changed through their interactions with him.īecause of this, how 'strong' a character is doesn't factor into much of anything on its own. Asada as a personality is static and indomitable, having a philosophy that works well for himself that would be a compromise of his character to change. This is an unconventional choice that shows the authors understood how Asada should be used. ![]() Something that I only realized after reading was that we are very rarely, if ever, shown the internal voice of Asada, despite being the main character and pretty much everyone else The motivations of each character are understandable if not always admirable, and their interactions follow that same winning mix of realistic and fun. The story is balanced between plausible events and the touch of suspension of disbelief that makes one more entertaining. Iryuu is a must-read if you like realistic fiction. I recently finished a reread of this manga and enjoyed it just as much if not more than the first time around. But if stopping him means conforming to the very system she seeks to destroy, can it really be worth it? With her career on the line, Katou must find a way to keep the other surgeon in check before he derails her agenda. Things don't go according to plan, though, as Asada quickly causes trouble at the hospital, continuously defying the system in place. Having once witnessed Asada's extraordinary surgical skills in person, Katou believes that he will be a valuable teammate. However, she will need an incredible team to pull it off-her first recruit being the genius surgeon, Dr. Because it has never been accomplished in Japan, a successful Batista will be key to securing Katou's candidacy for professorship. The Batista, otherwise known as a reduction left ventriculoplasty, can only be conducted by those with the highest degree of skill. Akira Katou decides to focus her newest research paper on one of the most difficult surgical procedures in the world: the Batista.
