Easily one of my top 10 fan fics. Not to say the story is perfect. Hardly. But that's really part of this story's charm. The main character is absolutely insane, beyond the shadow of a doubt. Most the criticism's against this story stop holding merit once you realize this. This guy is absolutely nuts, and as such, his narration is...unreliable.
Is Crystal Tokyo as bad as he says? Did the purification really kill the heart and soul of humanity? Was his resistance just casually and brutally murdered as he claimed? Does he just have the rosiest tint to ever rosey on his rose tinted glasses? Or is he just bitter because he wanted a different outcome, but he's fought so long that he bought into his own propaganda? Who knows. That's the beauty of this story. Make up your own answer to these question, because there are no hard answers to be had in this story.
Don't let the negative reviews put you off this story. They're not entirely wrong, I just believe they're missing the real charm of the story: A ride along with a crazy man, and deciding for yourself just how much you believed him.
Excellent.
