rainydays's manga / #Cannibalism(4)

the life story of a evil incarnate, a sociopath & serial killer whose choices brought him to his death. extremely disturbing read from all angles-- imagery, storytelling, overall concept it had me feeling empty by the end, though do i feel like the ending was a bit anticlimactic.

bran is stuck in his addiction due to the obsessive childhood friend andy that takes care of him. andys obsession later spirals out of control as he murders and tortures those around him to keep bran to himself. hands down the most blood curdling, disgusting thing ive read on this site so far! thought i could handle gore in art form but this was pretty bad, i feel bad for bran and i liked the parallelism when andy *supposedly* gets hit by a train.

louann connects with the mistress of her workplace after finding out that shes a cannibal murderer pretty good premise, though i wish there was more present-day storytelling to balance out the backstory-heavy narrative this had. loved the art, though, and the character dynamic between the two was unique.

not the worst ive seen in terms of gore n stuff but still pretty disturbing, the ml's past & current situation is interesting. not sure if there is more but it feels like a oneshot.
