A tight, sensitive piece that perfectly poses the question, "why do we make art, especially in the face of despair?". The answer seems to be, "because what else can we do?"

I'll be honest, when I first read Chainsaw Man I was not really into it, but I liked the art enough that when I saw this one-shot on Libby I checked it out, and I really liked it. The way it told this story was just really good. I don't have all my opinions worded correctly in my head, so I'm struggling to say what I mean. Anyways, I think this was an exceptional one-shot.
