IDK if I'm giving it a rating based on nostalgia, art or the actual storey -_-

Wow full color! And really rich, *full* color throughout.

I wasn't familiar with this title before, but I was definitely captivated throughout! It seems some people who used a weird bug spray got their DNA combined with insects?? So to help against the ones who would use this for nefarious purposes, as well as to teach folks to live with the parts of themselves that are insects, there exists inside (South) Korea The Nest, a college and dorm situation. 

We're met with similar events of schools-with-superpowers-- battles, learning about different types of insects that have combined with people, but there's also nearly immediately a PLOT against the school that hasn't been quite revealed yet and also, a big cliffhanger at the end of this 300+ page book that had me googling to see when volume 2 is coming out (it's December 12). Interesting characters and setting, gorgeous art, nd highly informative about insects! Neat!

Thank you to NetGalley/Ize Press/Yen Press for the eARC in exchange for this honest review!

This was definitely my favorite Web Toon read of the year! It's action-packed, fast paced and has amazing characters. The illustrations are also my favorite, I can't wait for season 2 to be published!
