I think this one is a must read.
First about the story, While I found these manga to be a bunch of mixed bags cause they mostly bank on reader's sympathy rather than the actual plot, but the reason I recommended reading this one, because this one for sure doesn't slack out on the story department. Despite the story expanding in on only a few plot points, it does so beautifully. The story building was decent, the journey to cure the girl felt realistic to an extent. The medical tag for the manga isn't just for show. It sounds legitimate for some reason, despite the medicines
...
being clearly imaginary (I mean there is nothing as mandragora roots and obsidian spider's liver as ingredients for medicine). I don't think you could have had a better story for this premise at this length.
Characters are something forward to look at. I mean they are not top tier, but they are certainly not your average joe. Decent characterisation for the main characters, while I would argue that the side characters were not given much focus, which is valid seeing the length of the manga. It definitely had me rooting for them and for most readers, that is enough of a threshold to enjoy the story.
Now about the art and it definitely is the strongest point of this manga. The art is so beautiful and detailed that its unreal. You are able to see more details the more you zoom in on the pages. The panel layout is interesting with frequent full page spreads which look beautiful as heck.
And at last about the ending, it was a rushed mess. I don't know what happened, to give consistently good pacing throughout the whole manga only to bottle it at the end. Definitely wasn't impressed with the ending. While the happy conclusion kind of cushioned the brunt of those flaws a bit, but only for a bit.
