This manga has kept me on my toes and interested enough to look forward to its once-a-month release.
Story: 9/10
Simply, it is something new. It is something different. The pacing is fast enough to keep me involved and appropriate for its spaced releases, but also slow enough that I have to dig in and theorize (big bonus!). I'll talk more about why I like the story in the Character section.
Art: 8/10
This is pretty self-explanatory. The art is consistent and I have no trouble deciphering who is who. The mangaka is very experienced with action, humor, emotion, and anything in between. I would have given it a

higher score, but there are some pages where the format is confusing; however, I'm sure this problem is fixed when read on actual paper and not online.
Character: 10/10
I've seen a lot of people complaining about that characters, but I can't agree. The main characters, Yuu and Mika, are entertaining and almost tragic. Yuu is first introduced as a generic "I must kill them all" character, but he gets a lot of development and depth as the story progresses. Mika remains a very mysterious character, despite being one of the protagonists.
What sets this manga apart is its outstanding cast of minor characters, who all have their own brilliant flaws, and must grow through the main character. One of my favorite feelings while reading or watching a story is a sense of inner-conflict. There are no straight good or bad guys in this story, because every character is justified in their actions.
Enjoyment: 10/10
I look forward to the new chapter every month. I adore the characters. I've even teared up at certain points in the story. I can't wait to read more.
Overall: 9/10
An interesting story and complex characters. A manga well worth the time.
