This isn't your typical 'brain rot' manga. It's a sophisticated, often dark exploration of what it means to be human, told through the lens of a girl who has forgotten how to care about herself.

While the 'slave auction' start is a massive hurdle for some parents, the story quickly shifts into a study of found family and boundaries. It's visually arresting and intellectually stimulating, but the gore and heavy themes mean you should probably wait until high school before handing this box set over.
