• MadK starts off slowly, borderline annoyingly so, yet it quickly picks up. There are no good people in this story, where you don't particularly want to 'root' for any character yet the story seemingly forces you to do so. No heroes, just sick creatures doing sick things. I appreciate an ero-guro book without the author romanticizing the characters nor their actions.
  The only somewhat redeemable character is tortured by Makoto in their dying days and the other is K, J's older brother, whom is also killed by Makoto.
  It's depressing but that's what I'm reading it for. The art can be difficult to follow therefore requiring to really pay attention to not only the stunning work of art of this but consequently to fully comprehend the horrors that happen.
