[ DROPPED ] No love, no smile, no innocence can be found here. Only anger, blood, violence and depravity. First few chapters are interesting, then it starts reading like torture porn with murder and 2D villains mixed in. One question though: why is this being published in a shounen magazine? (¯―¯ ٥)

Po_and_Dong: "To put it simply, there is a reason Blame is such a renowned cult hit. Its art style is both captivating and horrifying, its story extremely minimal, its atmosphere thick as syrup, and with it Blame has always been seen as a modern classic of cyberpunk and experimental manga. If you are in for something strange and off the beaten path then you will surely enjoy this bizarre and complex piece of cheese." I couldn't have put it better myself.

They all had such unbelievably convoluted circumstances that I found myself wishing for one of them to have a (even if only marginally) bland backstory. What a ride!

Unputdownable!! Immersive, despite loads of information being put forward. It's amazing. Would recommend.

❦︎ 84 【DRP】 Having read all 30 chapters available back in 2018, I decided to put it on hold. A series so compelling, it was a pity there were only a handful of chapters. But then, of course, it was still in its infancy stage. Its been years and I finally decided to clear out my On Hold list... JjK has long since spawned its own following but I guess it was merely a matter of time. I really should reread.

Anthology. The theme? Anthropomorphs. From birds, to fish to rocks. Sumiyoshi-sensei weave tales both splendid and haunting.

I was all for the Jojo-goodness...and, perhaps, conversations mostly related to art, the Louvre, the darkest pigment known to Jojoworld... Let's just say the gore blindsided me and the overall story left me unsettled.
