Henshin by Ken Niimura
2.0
I bought this book for like 5 bucks at the comic shop because I liked the art and the back cover sounded interesting - a series of vignettes set in modern Japan.
Yeah... So about the only part of this I enjoyed was the ending bit about cats? And even the cat story was so full of poop that I was just like...why...
The art was nice but this is such a Gross Man(tm) book. Like it's not edgy to make a bunch of poop jokes. Nothing in this really made sense, either.
Of course, it's entirely possible that I'm missing some massive cultural context here, considering this is a translation from a Japanese author. I have no idea.
