adventurous dark emotional funny hopeful lighthearted mysterious relaxing tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.0

If you like any sort of spy action comedy then this is the manga for you. I was tempted to call this a perfect first volume but went down to 4 because I immediately wanted more. Honestly might do a retroactive 5 at some point.

Content Warnings

Moderate: Blood, Car accident, Classism, Confinement, Injury/Injury detail, Toxic relationship, Violence, Body shaming, Bullying, Gore, Gun violence, and Death

Minor: Sexism and Misogyny

I really only say toxic relationship because of the central story conceit. The misogyny and sexism is variable and from a few characters. The most notable example is toward the end of this volume. Ultimately though the storytelling doesn’t condone sexism & misogyny.
