Tatsuki Fujimoto is the 'mad genius' of modern manga, and this 2023 collection of his early work is like looking at a car crash in slow motion—you can't look away, but it's definitely gruesome.
For an adult or an older teen who loves high-concept storytelling and can handle the gore, this is a 10/10. For a parent looking for a fun comic for their middle schooler? This is a nightmare. It’s brilliant, weird, and deeply unsettling.
If your kid is asking for this because they saw the 'cute' orange dog (Pochita) on TikTok, be warned: that dog turns into a chainsaw-headed murder machine pretty quickly.
