This was a recommendation on BookTube and I thought I would give it a try. I have been trying to find some good mangas to read and recommend to others. This book is definately not what I expected. I thought it would be a cute story, but it turned into something dark. I actually enjoyed the unexpectedness of the book. I want to know what happens so I will pick up the rest of the series.

Wow. I was not expecting to enjoy this as much as I did. I also totally didn’t see the plot twist coming!! Very creepy, very dark, and very absorbing. I need book 2 STAT, because I want to find out what happens next!

Also — I loved how alive and real the characters feel in this volume. The combination of dialogue and artwork is perfect!!

It has been so long since I found another story that that eerie atmosphere. I really loves stories where there is a sudden reveal that everything is a lie. They thought they were at an orphanage. Turns out its a farm for monsters!
I really like how quick and how precise the introduction was. It's only chapter 1 but something already happens and the whole plot moves at a great pace.
The art was not really my jam at first but I appreciate it so much now. I love how the creepy imagery is portrayed in such a creative way as the story goes on.

I won't spoil it, but it's very creepy and good, and Emma is a good heroine to root for.

I purchased this book with my own funds from Downtown Comics in Indianapolis, Indiana, and was not obligated in any way to review it.

Caught the opener to the anime, and am pleased the manga is just as solid.

This is super cute, definitely targetting a younger audience, but I found it charming and interesting. Will definitely continue on with the series
