I’m sure a lot of people can agree that as the story went on it got increasingly complicated and harder to follow. I personally don’t mind, I think the author is very good at balancing an extremely likeable cast with an interesting plot. The world-building feels incredible to me, I think the post-apocalyptic feeling comes through really well. The biblical theme is also really interesting. Earlier there was a good balance of interpersonal relationships/issues as well as plot, it’s starting to get a little more plot-heavy now, which I’m a little disappointed by considering how much I love the cast. It’s still extremely well executed, just lacking in my own personal preferences. A lot of stories nowadays usually sacrifice plot for likeable, well-written characters, and vice versa. I don’t get that vibe at all from ons, and it’s been consistent in this balance. While the over-complexity is a little bit off-putting, I don’t think that constitutes as “bad,” just requires a lot more paying attention than it used to. Still a great manga that I’ve loved for years
