This has very dark content. Check the content warnings.
I randomly grabbed this on a book haul day. I had no information and I wasn't sure what to expect from it. You find out Makoto's preferred interests or...tastes not long after you start. I was worried at first but I actually enjoyed it. It is horror (mostly body horror and gore) with a few mature scenes. Honestly, I didn't realize this would be funny? I commend the creator's unique ability to dance (very gracefully, I might add) along the very thin wire where there is room to be funny in this genre and, on top of that, doing so in such a niche window; I would go so far as to say thriving in it! This series looks to be so unique in not only content but art style as well. I already have the second one on it's way which I've heard is more story focused. I look forward to learning more about this world.
