me ha encantadO

el final me lo veía venir la vd… y es tan parecido a chainsaw man (por lo de ser un pringado y por lo del bicho), also me ha gustado mucho la relación que tienen kafka con la chavala y el kafka con reno

Well, this is weird.
I've seen this in my recommendations a couple of times, so I decided to try it out since I've given up on MHA. This seems promising, but it's just.. weird. I like that the main character is 32. It's nice to read about an adult around my age after all the teenagers in MHA.

I've seen this anime first on Crunchyroll and I got hooked. First, the main characters Kafka and Ichikawa are a funny and wholesome duo. I like how the author depicts a 32 year old guy who had a dream but give up on it and then suddenly somebody younger came into his life and made him realise he should pursue it again.

Not only that, they are also funny together. This anime would not be enjoyable without both of them. I like both of their reactions when a Kaiju went inside Kafka while in the hospital and the nipple experience. It was hilarious. Kafka's character brighten the mood of this manga.

Overall, a great read! On to the next chapter.
