It’s very intense but through reading this first volume with the art and storytelling I see why it’s considered a masterpiece of the medium of Manga.
Graphic: Alcoholism, Body horror, Bullying, Death, Gore, Misogyny, Sexual content, Violence, Blood, Medical trauma, Murder, Fire/Fire injury, Toxic friendship, War, Injury/Injury detail, and Classism
The violence is brutal, the portions of sexuality are very clear, the reasons for violence are selfish and cruel at times, don’t go in thinking this will be a lighthearted read.
