Yes, it's an amazing manga. Only real criticism is how Raoh started getting all this back story way at the end, after the conflict was long since resolved.
You could tell he was the writers favorite character by how he kept going back, it just didn't make much sense narratively (Should have made a special chapter or something..)

Never let anyone else define you. Don't be a jerk just to be a jerk, but if you are expressing your true inner feelings and beliefs, or at least trying to express that inner child, and everyone gets pissed off about it, never NEVER apologize for it. Let them think what they want, let them define you in their narrow little minds while they suppress every last piece of them just to keep a friend that never liked them for themselves in the first place.
I'm not really one for popularity being a criteria, but in every discussion of "best ever" lists on westling forums, they put heavy emphesis on gate reciepts (Or "putting asses in seats).
Of course, that's a smark talking from the perspective of someone who looks at it as a business, instead of escapism or art.
But you could apply the same standard to manga, and how well it does.
