I don't think this is a necessarily bad manga, but I don't think this style of series meshes well with some of the Lovecraftian themes the story initially tries to capture. The art and creature designs are beautiful and convey a sense of horror that is unfortunately missing in the narrative. This is a very light dark-fantasy, which may appeal to some, but isn't really for me. Dark themes are mostly just dabbled in, and then shied away from. It's very early on, so it still has a chance to pivot in a more interesting or different direction. At least worth a look.
