I liked the style of the art, but this was way too grotesque for me. Probably would have minded it a little less if most of the violence hadn't been directed at women. ( )

This book is a freaking bizarre combination of fairy tales and Attack on Titan, filled with incest, cannibalism, gore, and very unlikeable giant characters. The art and story are both simultaneously weirdly beautiful and repellent. I might enjoy this more if the young title character weren't so feckless and ineffectual, but I'll probably check out the next volume to see how he might develop as a person. ( )
