I‘m not even sure how to rate this.
There was nothing really wrong with it, it just rightfully made me a little uncomfortable reading. Not because the manga itself did anything uncomfortable but because of the topics dealt with. However, I do think they were dealt with in a proper way e.g. not romanticizing them or making them seem less harmful than they are. So even though that made me uncomfortable, I think the manga did a good job, because topics like these should make you uncomfortable. 
Obviously the level of violence was to be expected simply because of the title, which should definitely be taken seriously.

I‘m debating whether or not I‘m going to continue this but I just might.

This was really interesting! Dark, but I suppose that’s to be expected from the title alone and I would absolutely recommend looking up content warnings if you have any sensitivities. It’s intense!

I think Hiroki is a neat character to look at and go “holy shit something is wrong with you, but I’m glad you’re on the ‘good’ side” because he would be absolutely feral if let loose. I want to learn more about him so badly, I might have to pick up the next volume immediately just so I can figure out more about this enigma. His methods are… just as twisted as the criminals he kills.

Heads up don't read this if you can't handle gore. Some scenes can be brutal. This series reminds me a lot of Dexter.

Butik yayınevlerinden daha çok kitap okumaya çalışıyorum. Brutal da bu sebeple karşıma çıkan bir kitap oldu. +18 kategoride olduğundan ve çizimlerinde aşırı şiddet olduğundan siyah poşet içerisinde satılıyor. Adını tam anlamıyla yansıtan bir kitap Berserk bile bu kadar vahşi gelmemişti doğrusu. Dexter tarzı polis bir ana karakter var ve suçlulara kendince bir adalet sağlıyor. Ama yaptıklarının adaletle uzaktan yakından alakası yok. Bütün ağır konuları birleştirmiş. Şiddet, t.cavüz, .şkence ve çok daha fazlasını içeriyor. Açıkçası beni çizimlerdeki aşırılık rahatsız etti. Hassas konular hassas olmayan bir şekilde ele alınmış hatta neredeyse duygusuzca denebilir. Ana karakterin motivasyonu Exorcist filmiyle birleştirilmiş. Adaletten çok katillerin bakış açısına ve yaptıkları iğrençliklere odaklanılmış. Bu iğrenç kısımlardaki bazı eylemlerin gereksiz yere sırf aşırılık olsun diye konulduğunu düşünüyorum. Açıkçası beğenmedim ve seriye devam etmeyi de düşünmüyorum. Siyah poşet içinde satılması doğru bir karar olmuş, çocukların bu kitaptan uzak tutulması gerekir.

So basically there's this guy who's definately memorised every bit of The Exorcist and is probably into BDSM and he kills monsters. Oh and he also like doing pottery.

Go read it(and check the warnings). Enjoyyyyy :)

You'll probably end up simping for him Imao

CW: very graphic depictions of SA, rape and murder

Well, it certainly lives up to the title. The premise is very interesting so I plan to keep reading and see where it goes.
