Translation will always take something away from the story unfortunately, it was a sweet story with a good purpose but there were things that just sounded stupid including the depiction of the devil (Aloha the cool devil who happens to be his Doppelgänger/the split image of the person haha.) specifically the line that side: "that's what the devil is all about. It's what you wanted to become but couldn't." That was just ???.. anyways it wasn't a bad book.
