The capacity for obsession to envelop humans is given heavy emphasis in both manga. While Fetish is a psychological manga light on graphic elements, Lovesick Dead is both disturbing and stark in its horror. Read both for a very chilling experience.

We see characters dealing with the repercussions of a traumatic past and how they find comfort in a loved one and learn how to trust again. Mars, however, handles issues with greater competence; nevertheless, both are worth reading for those who love romances with a darker edge.
