The art is so good. The image of the Earth guarded by yokai from aliens! The 2 page spreads! The anatomical model that burst apart! It's so good that it makes you forget this volume starts with two teen girls in their underwear and a naked male classmate fighting a Loch Ness, mates shrimp, and alien hybrid. Then you see the school nurse and realize all that was for the plot, but the nurse is just a weird kink. 

There's the anatomical model chapters, which were sweet, and the introduction of Jiji. It was sweet until you his insomnia and what caused it. The warped perspective of Jiji and that spirit was frightening.
