frickin’ masterpiece. i loved how the themes played around with morals. they even touched on bullying. the storytelling is so masterful— the way emotions are expressed without explicitly saying them outright through the composition of the panels and the subtleties in the art
Damn what a tragedy .... all zombie genre things always end up so sad and introspective for me. It's basically a requirement of the genre at this point.
Mad scientist revives an aquaintance who died in an alley. There were side effects. Manga explores those side effects. --- tl;dr Unique concept that further stands out with moody tone and fascinating character dynamics. Initial chapter ideas and uncertain pacing of middle chapters coalesce into slightly rushed but powerful ending.
The manga is rather morbid in tone. A bit gory---lots of hijinks involving having to kill people for the mad scientist's experiments.
Oh, yes. The mad scientist. He's ultimately what makes this the manga it is. He has a fascinating dynamic with the man he resurrected---he very much treats him like a toy to be played with, except, no, it's not exactly that, either.
Their dynamic is truly interesting in the sense that they sort of...mesh together, rather than fall in love in the conventional sense. The resurrected man has no one; he is dead to the world. The scientist has no one, either; he's isolated himself in the name of science. So. They make do, love each other in the best sense they can until the end.
I love stories like this one.
I haven't finished this one yet, but I've gone through a majority of it and encountered spoilers for the ending. It's a bit rushed, but it's GOOD. It's wraps everything up well, and, I believe, is the only one that I think fits thematically.
