The art is chefs kiss. My issue with vol. 1 is mostly that it starts off slow. I’ve been reading the manga and watching the anime side by side and honestly I had a much harder time getting through the manga than watching the show. I know this series is violent but I really do wish they’d make content warnings mostly because we’ve got kids reading this, I have 8 year olds in class talking about this series and I really do think parents should be able to read or at least be warned about the contents of the things they’re allowing their kids to read.
Graphic: Genocide, Gore, Violence, Death of parent, and Murder
