Just finished 1-3, not bad. I normally don't read this type of manga but I like Punpun so I thought I'd give it a try, its pretty interesting and I really like his artwork.

It's good so far, but I can't figure out what age these kids are supposed to be.

It's alright so far, but Koume pisses me off. I got up to chapter 8. Things are starting to get strange~

No, his artwork is great at portraying realistic character designs. Since Asano writes about your average japanese person, I'd say he's absolutely nailed what he's going for.

Pretty much this. I don't find his artwork to be "meh". It's realistic because he constructs his characters based on experimentation and experiences rather than the typical cliches you see often. Artwork = meh? I don't think so.

I think his artwork is very good, it's realistic and expressive at the same time, he had both plus symbolism in Punpun, I can't fault his art at all, it's quite good.

Good chapter, their relationship isn't all that bad, she is opening up to him a little bit.
Still very shaky though. I hope there isn't a rape scene in this manga...

I've always had a problem with Inio Asano's works. I find his worldview extremely jaded, everything is hypersexualized, and his manga generally start falling apart halfway through. I do respect how there is a raw ambition within his works, but I'm just not feeling it here. This manga is trying so hard to create a realistic setting for itself, but forgot to make it interesting or likable. Hopefully there is something worthwhile in this manga, but I'm not holding my breath.

Apparently we had a tiny timeskip and now they aren't having hate-sex anymore. Hm.
