Goodnight Punpun, Vol. 7 Paperback – September 19, 2017

Absolutely incredible piece of work. One of the best manga series I’ve ever read. I totally teared up at the end, so good. Thank you Inio Asano!!!

I don't have to say much. It's punpun. By now we now what we're getting into and it's at it's most heartbreaking yet. And the ending is also one of the best endings in my opinion it wraps up everything since chapter 1. The Pegasus cult,harumi,seki and Shimizu,punpun and aiko, Sachi, and yuuchi, this is the shortest book in the series but the best one punpun gets his conclusions which may be happy or sad depending on what kind of person you are. Inio asano's artwork reaches maximum value everything from the final panels of the Pegasus cult to the final panels are all gorgeous. Punpun is without a doubt the darkest story I've ever read especially with volume 6 but the final 2 chapters feel like all the suffering is over except for punpun he still has his demons but has been able to find closure. AND HOT BOI the ending has one of the greatest final lines in manga history with one of the most heartbreaking final lines for those who have remembered chapter 1.

Ending feels very real

I love this manga. I read the entire series online and still decided to buy the entire series in print format as well. Just a fair warning, if you read the first couple of vols and think this will be a fun read, then you're in for a huge shock and disappointment. The author said in an interview that the first half of the manga was written in a way to get publisher to pick up this series. So there's definitely some bait and switch going on.... but just not necessary in a bad way...Spoiler Alert:The ending of this series is fairly long.... I would say it lasted the entire second half of this volume. It isn't all happy joyful but it isn't all dark and depressed either. I guess that's just part of life. Overall, I think it brings enough closure to all these characters... However, there are couple of plot points that I could never understand...I never understand is why the characters change are so sudden in the final arc. I never understand why Punpun/Aiko chose to run instead of just tell the truth.... it was very clear they could argue 'Self Defense'..... the physical evidence is on Aiko's body, Punpun barely just met Aiko so he couldn't have inflicted those wounds.... there's clear evidence that the mom was abusive and unstable.......Japan isn't a huge country, where could they possibly run to and not get caught? Okay well, I guess that's just a plot device to get them on the road, away from home...... but why did Punpun's attitude change so drastically for no apparent reason at all. He was finally able to reunion w/ his first love after so many years yearning for this chance....... why would he became so abusive to Aiko? I really hate to think that Aiko's suicide was directly caused by Punpun pushing her in a way for Aiko to realized there's no way out for both of them..... so she chose to sacrifice herself instead. Yea, I get that this is just a story, a manga.... it's just sad to see the protagonist made so many horrible decisions without any rational explanation.Finally, f'ck that 'Good Vibration' Cult, they are wasted of pages and are completely nonsensical. I couldn't believe one of the chapter was just the cult leader speaking to the camera.....Overall, I still love this entire series a lot.... it shows the lost of innocent of regular kids growing into adulthood. It didn't shy away from some very sensitive topics.... and although I could seen how the ending will unfold itself but I still hope that these characters could find salvation from various trauma they've faced. The way this manga series was able to make readers care for these fictional characters is the reason why so many people loved & recommended this series.

…must read

The bestest manga i've ever read

Older kids

The book came in, expected, excellent condition. Although, this volume seems a little slimmer than the other volumes, not that it’s a bad thing. It is the last volume of the series after all. The ending had me pondering throughout the day, it made me wanting for more but overall a satisfying ending to end the series.
