writing the review while it's still fresh in my brain!!

this manga, specifically this volume, has one of the most disturbing panels in all of the comics and mangas i've read. i'm not typically frightened by uncanny valley/mandela catalogue -esque horror but the face seiichi makes towards the end of this volume is genuinely so gut wrenching and stomach churning.
