Inio Asano is a genius. This coming of age tale is as brilliant as it is heart breaking. Goodnight Punpun is constantly making me cry and think, and for that I love it I guess. Goodnight Punpun is surreal, extremely surreal, A lot of what is happening is metaphor or symbolism. The main character is shown as a simple stick figure bird, while everyone and everything else are meticulously detailed and drawn. in terms of coming of age stories in manga, this ranks up with the best. If you like this I also suggest reading Sun downer, a bit more adult but also very good.
Part three ramps it up a bit from Part one and Two, constantly surprisingly, I love the evolution of the main character throughout this whole series.
