Such an interesting concept and the play on Alice in Wonderland! I like how we are learning the rules of the game and the world as the characters are-it keeps us on edge. I think Chota is supposed to be the comic relief character, but boy does he annoy me!

i watched the show on netflix first and one thing i have to say is that that casted SO WELL!!! i’m absolutely blown away with how they casted, anyway this review isn’t about the show it’s about the manga. i’m truly loving the manga and i flew right through the first volume and i’m immediately starting on the 2nd and literally bought the 3rd volume tonight and i’m picking it up tomorrow haha 

this story is dense and full of violence so i would watch out for this triggers, there’s a lot of layers to this story and if you’re lost when you’re done reading i highly recommend watching the show it does a great job at explaining and adding more information
