Okay, this manga is very special. It starts off with just showing you endless amounts of stuff that you don't want to see, rape, extortion, torturing, and the story revolves around all this, and the people affected by it. But not in a good "we've been through this but can work it out together" way, the main character has lost all his memories and we're forced to relive all the bad shit he's done as formerly mentioned, as he regains his memories, and has to face the consequences.
If you're interested at this point then sure, go for it, but I wouldn't call this part of
...
the manga good, where the manga gets good is when the 2nd arc starts, and it turns into a whole other manga, and you realize the first arc was just backstory or setup for this arc. And the 2nd arc is REALLY good, it's worth all the pain of going through unpleasant stuff in the first arc so you can read one of the best thrillers out there.
With this said I will mainly score the manga on the 2nd arc.
Story: 9
The events and twists are absolute top notch and will leave you guessing and hoping for the best or worst for characters. Which for me is what makes a thriller great.
Art: 8
The author has a very distinct and unique art style, and makes good use of it. Though obviously this is personal preference, if you don't like rough art styles maybe you won't like it as much as me.
Character: 10
Definitely the strongest point of the manga, tied in with the story, the characters are all deep, and have their individual goals and motivations. With reoccurring characters worth caring about there's not much else to want from them.
But beware, most of the characters are not "good" people. But that doesn't stop them from being very well written.
Enjoyment: 8
Sadly the first part of the manga brings down the overall enjoyment as I generally just felt bad about reading all the horrible things that took place. But the 2nd arc just completely carries the enjoyment of the manga and makes it well worth your time.
Overall: 9
I've made my points on why I like it without going into spoilers as much as I can, and all I have left to say is PLEASE give it a chance if you can handle the content of the first arc, because the reward for doing so is so great.
