Oh wow!!! Thank you so much, VictoriaWagtail! (Now I seriously hope I'm just the decoy...! ;))
This is one great looking book, and I'm seriously in love with the White Rabbit bookplate. Looking at the pretty little boxes of intriguing sweets (gummies, I think), my head is not the only thing that is going to be fed though. :) LO-VE-LY, thank you so much!!! :D

I loved this. Great worldbuilding, interesting and believable characters and a subtly unfolding plot had me quickly hooked. The themes are reminiscent of classic scifi movies (2001, Dark Star, Silent Running, that kind of stuff), but the decidedly Oriental attention to social obligations and community added much richness to those old ideas. It did take me a while to get used to the aethetics and I initially found people's faces and expressions quite flat, but I adjusted after a while. And how can you not totally fall for pictures like the bottom panel of page 111?
I will definitely look out for subsequent volumes.
