Be Missed and Remembered: The Letter from Mayoiga

If there is one thing Be Missed and Remembered: The Letter from Mayoiga gets really well, it is the ageless nature of a problem many claim is a modern thing. By mixing in themes of old theology with the modern concept of unemployment and the hikikomori phenomenon, it unmasks it as a problem for all of humanity to solve, and not just those affected. It gives empathy and hope to outsiders, and hopefully, will encourage others to dare to take their hands despite what society tells them. However, at times it could have trusted its depiction of humanity to keep the reader turning pages. The story here is too good for cheap tricks like cliffhangers.
