Dissolving beauty was the chapter that really did give me the hebbie-jeebies and the last chapter's twist made it shocking at first, but once you look back and think about it, it makes sense. Of course, from how short and abstract it is, there are a lot of unanswered questions, but the author knows this and even end the book saying it is up to the reader's imagination.
I personally wished the story was longer since I am someone who enjoys having everything in detail, but this is still a solid story nonetheless and definitely recommend it if you want a quick read of J-horror manga genre.

It got annoying after awhile with all the apologizing, but with reading the ending remarks, the repetition makes more sense. I like how even though each chapter is a story within itself, they are still connected by Yuuma and Chizumi and their disturbing nature.

While I do understand the notions of this manga, I do feel that for this particular one, it fell a bit flat for me.
Personal Ratings : 3.75🌟
Dissolving Classroom tells on two siblings who are both weird on their own. Whenever they came to a new town, the brother will never stop apoligizing and the sister eats brain as a daily substance.
While I do get why Ito wrote this manga, in a sense as a satire for the people who told empty promises, its also, for me, not quite well-executed. With Ito's usual grotesque style, this manga was one that made me almost wanted to vomit, I had liked its fast paced style.
Will this be good for everyone? Obviously not. But if you do want to try Ito's lesser compelling works, you can try this one out.
