This initial volume is quite good. The premise is a strong one, the protagonist can potentially save future lives by rewriting the events of the past. That said, the art could have been stronger and the character designs could have been more distinctive, personal flair additions given the characters wear uniforms. The story carries despite any small drawbacks with the art. The bonds between the characters alongside the time switch elements is very effective.
Graphic: Body horror, Bullying, Death, Emotional abuse, Gore, Gun violence, Misogyny, Self harm, Sexual content, Suicide, Toxic relationship, Violence, Blood, Medical content, Grief, Medical trauma, Murder, Gaslighting, Toxic friendship, Alcohol, Injury/Injury detail, and Classism
There are gang fights and there is a prominent suicide scene in this volume so be forewarned
