Side notes: This wasn't my favorite manga today. I'm more or less conflicted by the art style that feels almost Western comic than a manga. This can be explained with multinationality  of the characters. Just like one other reader on MAL the story made me instantly think Godspeed manga (which isn't my favorite either). The story itself could be more interesting so I'm keeping eye on this. Only thing that I really wonder is those test that the kids are made to do, what's the purpose of those? o.o
