i want to like this author soooo bad but all the weird stuff with kids/teenagers always throws me off ): the art style is really cool and i liked this for what it is (the horror aspect and the way vampirism works reminds me of tokyo ghoul but like. worse) but i rly dont know if ill be continuing honestly

overall i really liked this! i found it very interesting. i do have a few qualms regarding LGBTQ+ rep in this manga (as well as the weird fan service at the end regarding a literal 14/15 yr old??? Thats weird sorry) buttt i do really love the overall vibes, the humor, the concept, and the art! felt very tokyo ghoul meets soul eater to me which is a huge compliment so (-: excited to continue!
