Summary: On a typical day during a summer vacation, a group of 15 children discovered a mysterious man living in a seashore cave, along with his high-tech gadgets. The man claimed to be a game developer creating a video game with 15 giant robots defending Earth from alien invaders and asked those children to test the game for him. The kids agreed happily at first, but soon they began to find the game horrifying, not only because of its realism but also for the first fatality among them happened right after their first victory. Worse yet, they had no idea how to stop or leave the "game."
Currently I'm hooked with this manga
-really hooked- Well, the anime also started airing since April, I downloaded the first episode from
Mesmy's journal. And fell in love it with right away to the point, I went to look for the manga as well. This week
Triad has released Episode 3. All of them can be found at
bokurano. I've uploaded the three episodes along with the Opening and Ending Song. But you need to join the community if you want to download all of them. The Opening song is awesome, I really recommend it :)
Back then, the greatest shock to our reality
Was that our lives were primitive and simplistic, it was laughing in our faces.
Even convering my ears, the truth slipped through my fingers and left me confused.
Where in my frail body am I supposed to hold the strength to stand?
Right now, I can't even begin to understand
How the countless lives in this planet are essentially one.

Well, moving on. Even though this series isn't one that can be considered pretty boys or girls playground, the main points of it are the mind-blowing and tear-jerking plot as well as the characterization. Each main characters, there're 15 of them, but the story line's not limited on these chosen children, has their own problem in life that might seem weird to you yet happen to million other people out there. We, just never bother to know or care. Each of them has their own willingness and reluctance to fight even with the Earth at stake.
'
Omg, is it another Gundam Seed Destiny?' If you're worried of GSD over-dramas (I love GSD-angst, I don't know why some people complaints about it), no, you won't find it in ぼくらの Well then, without further ado, enjoy <3
