First I'll start of by saying I'm amazed this series is so unpopular and unknown, it's a real hidden gem
This story is about a very smart main character who has the supernatural ability to ask a single question with the answer being either "yes" or "no" per victim that's been killed by a curse contractor: someone that's made a contract with a curse god. these contracts have new unique conditions every time making each case very different from the previous. The stakes for both the MC and the contractor are always more than high enough to create some level of tension or suspense. and
...
plenty of people end up dead usually.
if you're into murder mystery or crime thriller you'll most likely like this manga, the MC is a coolheaded guy that doesn't care much for morals or people. and with each case you"ll get an almost death note like cat and mouse chase between usually a smart criminal and our genius MC. So far the logic the characters use is completely sound and there aren't any plotholes or asspulls.
The characters aren't the main focus of this manga, the cases are, just like they should be in this kind of story. the MC is really the star of the show and most of the rest are there to fullfill their roles for the sake of the plot for the most part and aren't particucarily fleshed out but they're solid and many have their own unique quircks,
The art is absolutely great I have no problems with it but it can get pretty graphic so beware. if you're not into mystery/crime/thriller/edgy stuff you're probably not gonna like this much. and if you enjoy reading stories in general mostly for the characters rather than the plot or the story then you might feel like it's lacking in the character department since it's not the main focus.
in terms of how this seperates itself from other similar manga, I'd say the biggest difference is the use of logic, this is just smarter and better written than most of them and it sets itself apart more than enough for it to feel fresh for me even though I've already read and watched a whole bunch of fairly similar works.
