The volume begins with a touching introduction to Kananeo and her relationship with Akira. It's a nice breather before the political/thriller intrigue kicks in again. Blood flows and we discover a Yomiko much tougher than she appears...

A series that's still excellent, with careful narration and drawing.

3.5

In this last couple volumes, the story seems to be going a different direction; or maybe it was always intended to be that way, but what it started like mostly a sci-fi and mystery story, is now turning more into sorts of a political intrigue thriller much heavier in action, and maybe not as much in feelings anymore.

As such, I'm personally finding the series a little bit less interesting, and the art that looked original at first is also starting to feel a bit tired to me, especially when it comes to character depiction. I'll just say that, for a long while, I thought Akira was actually a girl... duh.

So even though this is still quite a original story, it is not holding as well as it did at the beginning for me.

Alors que la série s’achemine vers sa fin au Japon, c’est un tome encore plus politique et plus complexe qu’Hasumi Yasuda nous livre.

Il faut donc rester concentré au cours de cette lecture pour suivre les liens entre l’enquête de nos héros sur Ivy, l’être transfloré qui joue les serial killers, et la politique de ce monde post-apo sous soleil artificiel qui joue sur les peurs des uns et des autres. Je dois reconnaître n’avoir peut-être pas tout suivi, tout enregistré, cela nécessitera une relecture en profondeur quand la série sera terminée. Heureusement ça n’empêche pas de prendre vraiment plaisir à la lire.

Il faut dire que l’univers sombre et dégueulasse de ce monde pourri de corruption, pauvreté et injustice est toujours aussi bien travaillé et exposé, que ce soit au détour de l’histoire de personnages à peine croisés racontant un bref moment de leur vie, ou lors de l’exposition de systèmes plus généralisés. J’ai une préférence pour les premiers car les anecdotes du genre sont ce qui va le plus droit à mon coeur, à l’image de l’enquêtrice cherchant le fantôme de son frère décédé dans son coéquipier ou de ce politique véreux qui se rappelle l’origine de ses engagements qui ne sont pas si mauvais que ça, bien au contraire. Rien n’est simple, rien n’est réellement blanc ou noir ici.

Cela donne au récit une tension permanente, une noirceur étouffante, une peur omniprésente, portées par des dessins aux noirs puissants et aux looks très pulp façon K.Dick. On est vraiment presque dans un cyberpunk avec firme mafieuse mais à dimension florale ici et non câblée, les lianes remplaçant les câbles.

Saga sombre, mélangeant humain et politique autour de questions de survie classique dans le fond mais original dans la forme, Fool night s’achemine vers un final qui sera rude et âpre, je n’en doute pas. Ce tome, plutôt de transition, permet de creuser le volet politique avec une tension permanente, mais j’avoue que la dimension plus humaine de l’enquête et la proximité d’Ivy m’ont manqué, j’ai eu le sentiment d’être loin mais loin parfois…

I really am liking this series. This is the latest book to come out in my native English. So I'll have to wait to continue reading this. I like the premise. I like the detective like story, the dark imagery, and the idea of people becoming plants to fight off becoming poor is sad that it doesn't feel too far off from the real world where the wealthy watch the poor die, even when the sun is gone.

The only thing that hit me finally reading this book. "The Sun is gone" mentioned several times in the series... but how do the plants grow? I didn't piece that together until today. "The people are feeding them" you could argue, but the problem is plants need Photosynthesis to stay alive and healthy. Maybe I missed that part but seems like kind of an important detail with a sun not existing or being blocked out or whatever it is that plunged the world into darkness.

The hunt for a special genetically altered goldfish gives us some tragic backstory info for a character.

But the real part of the story is the hunt for Dr. Kudai, the man who created Ivy, and evidence to connect him to Hikasa, the man who is leading the anti-transfloration movement for... reasons unknown, because without transfloration, there's no oxygen and everybody dies. Unless I'm just dumb and forgot.

I literally can't stop reading this series. Just when I think it can't get better, it does. I can't recommend this manga enough.

Este ha sido un poco flojito, pero bueno, aún así siempre hay algún elemento que me hace querer seguir con la serie.
