Plot:
No. 6 is a future model city in 2013 and is know of it's perfect way of life. Shion is a part of the city and is ranked as an elite as an age of 2. When he's 12, he got into a high rated school. On his 12th birthday he then saves a boy who climbed in from his window and trated his shot wound. The boy's named Nezumi and was an escapee. Dispite that Shion still kept the boy with him but later on suffered because of it. But Nezumi gave  to Shion something... something more than the so called perfect life of No. 6...

Characters:
Shion ~ At first he's 12 but later in the serie he's already 16 (?). He's smart elite boy who was promised to be something big but the he saved Nezumi. Shion is a little sarcastic but naive boy who gets to know the real world later with Nezumi. Originally he had a brown hair and brown eyes but later white hair and red eyes (he turned into an albino).

Nezumi ~ He's a sane age as Shion but much experienced than other party. He's an escapee and an enemy of the No. 6. He thinks lowly about Shion but at the same time is thankful for his help with the wound. Nezumi has blue gray hair on ponytail and grey eyes that are mentioned many times because of them mezmerating effect.

And why u read it now?
This serie has it! I mean, amazing boy friendship/love (sorry for all those who doesn't like) and a real enemy. A modern enemy. This time it's a whole city. They finally gets that it's all an utopia. Nothings real and perfect as they thought. They're not happy as they were told to be. Actually they just are and nothing more. They don't feel the real happiness or saddness or anything like that which is actually necessary in the life, to tell the truth. It somehow reflects my own feeling. Something's missing... but what is it? Destroy it. Destroy what? Everything. Everything? Also the part where Shion screams to the typhon is really heart thropping. I think sometimes we all wish that we could scream everything away. Just like that!
Also the characters are cool. I like them all. ^^ Especially the main couple, Nezumi and Shion, I think their personalities are really fitting for the whole thing. Two escapers, they escape the perfect disaster. This is worth reading!
Oh and by the way! I'm telling you to watch the anime. I think this time it's much more better than the manga. And try to read the novels too. Just click the link below and you'll see there another link. So click there and you'll have an english translation to the novel.

WARNING! This contains spoilers and a lot! So be extremely careful. 
This time the video is made  by me. I just had a good chance to share it now so. x'D

Also, I have started to translate the exact novel, No. 6, into Finnish. I still haven't translated any chapters but soon there'll be the first part of the first chapter available. So if you're finn or know finnish, go ahead and read. :D Thank you~
