Five years ago, a group of friends murdered a man. Every year since then, Shintarou Nakamura, Akira Kanzaki, Ryuu Nimaidou, Haruka Nagase, and Tsubaki Toyoshima visit the dead man’s rotting bones and reaffirm their blood oath to take the secret to their graves.
Soon after one of their yearly visits, the friends hear that a golf course will be built in the area and decide to go back and move the body. Instead of bones, however, they find a cell phone that begins to ring. The group answers it with trepidation, and the stranger on the other end confirms what they already suspect: the bones are indeed missing, and their crime has been discovered. In order to stay out of jail, they agree to do the thief a «favor,» and in the process uncover a plot that will test the bonds of their friendship.

This Manga is extremely enjoyable and I would implore anyone who agrees to assist in raising the score. Till Your Bones Rot is deep philosophical manga about the consequences of murdering someone. These consequences are experienced and conveyed through a group of young teenagers, who all had their own motives and deal with it in their own way. In the way that it’s emotional, it’s also a mystery roller-coaster. There are many scenes in this that will leave you guessing at what happens next, or took place that we don’t know about yet.
Overall, this manga is an experience that will keep you reading without overstaying its welcome. Please read it and share your thoughts, if you can. I rate it an 8.5/10, rounded up to a pleasent 9/10 for MAL.
I liked this manga for a few reasons, but also had my reasons to dislike it too. In my opinion, it was a good time killer and decent manga, but failed as a thriller in many ways. I will write some pros and cons.
Very great concept, and succeeded in being very psychological at times. Really gave insight into the emotions of those who have taken a life, which I am sure most could not actually relate to. But somehow, it worked here.
I thought I had predicted the culprit, but it was actually somebody different. Some of the twists and turns were quite good.
The first four volumes were quite slow in my opinion. Considering that is over half of the series, I have to dock some points for that. I couldn’t get really into it until volume 5 or 6. I do believe this could have been shorter by a couple volumes.
The romance in the story just didn’t work for me. I have heard of a love triangle, but here, there was kind of a love pentagon. Characters’ reasons for liking another character sometimes made no sense, or their reasoning to sleep with a character they had no feelings for were nonexistent. I think the author was going for emotional disturbance in a sense, but I wasn’t buying it, and much of the story was wasted on these romances.
The characters were somewhat weak. Everyone kept calling Shintaro brave and Akira charismatic, and the boys were all over Tsubaki and Haruka for reasons that could have been better portrayed. Ryu was my favorite and the most relatable by far for me. This was a very character-driven story, so this is where it really falls short.
Overall, a decent read. I wouldn’t recommend it, but I wouldn’t tell someone to stay away from it either. I wouldn’t read it again though.
