First time reading manga and I really enjoyed it. It's very quick paced and I like how you can finish it within two hours. The story was a traditional origin story especially with the way it ended. Im' actually a bit excited to see where the plot will go. It's kind of funny though that the one time the doctor decided to not follow his corrupt hospital director to save am politician and instead save a child, that child grows up to be a serial killer. Very nice message.

Quote: "Dr. Temna, it wasn't your fault. You were just doing your job as a doctor."
