This is a short read that got me thinking, “If I were to die 3 months from now, would I do anything differently?” The main character wondered about this, too, when he, as the title suggests, sold his life for ten thousand yen per year. It's a pretty bittersweet story, and has certainly made me feel some feelings. However, I'm not really impressed by the introduction of a “best girl” to accompany this main character. It kinda cheapens the whole point about the story and its ending.
Overall, the impression I got upon finishing the book was like the one I experienced after finishing Mitch Albom's “The Five People You Meet in Heaven.” This manga made me feel and think, but not deep enough. Still an enjoyable read, though.
