  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated

stories of a loved one disappearing and then coming back wrong is a trope i don’t read enough, and this one nailed it in the first volume alone. i felt pushed to pick it up based on premise alone and it didn’t disappoint at all, thankfully. the art felt like it was being distorted based on the narrative, and it was so well done. already very dark & off-putting, and i’m excited to see the rest of the series 🩵
