The title suits the mood and plot of the story very much. When I first read the title of the story;; I remember an acquaintance saying to me;; "R.I.P means Rest In Peace" when I asked her what does it mean. There are always that three alphabets engraved on someone's tombstone;; and I was curious since it was anywhere and everywhere (that only applies when we're in a graveyard).
This is not like DOLL;; it's not a compilation of short stories. It's a series;; though a really short one at that. I really wished that it will be longer;; it's kinda okay.
So;; the plotline goes like this::
Virgin Lily and Transylvanian Rose are angels that live in heaven. They were tasked with the job to purify souls so that the souls can go to heaven after they die. Most of the people that die;; their souls are tied to the earth. It's because they are still haunted by unfinished jobs in their past lives. That is why these souls need purifying. One day she heard someone singing;; and that is how she met a guy;; who committed suicide while singing. Out of interest (I think);; she gave the guy one of her wings and made him an angel;; and call him "undertaker". Suicide cases can never be purified;; for it's an eternal sin when you killed yourself. But this "undertaker";; he's the opposite. He can't purify normal souls;; but surprisingly enough;; he can purify suicidal souls. he's the only one that ever can.
Why?
Why?
That's basically the synopsis;; I tell you the plot is going smoothly at the moment;; but character-development is somewhat poor compared to DOLL. Oh well;; maybe this is one of Mihara-sensei's early works.
It's a rather weird journey;; but the end is quite satisfying .. I think I'm falling in love with Mihara-sensei's works! <3
It doesn't really makes sense;; the title (at first). But the last chapter explains it all;; but don't try reading only the last chapter out of curiosity! It wouldn't be a great journey if you just skipped;; anyway you wouldn't understand a thing if you would. Read it;; from cover to cover;; and you will appreciate the beauty of love.
XD Haahaa so cliche'~ But it's true;; you know.
