Review: A realistic tale of a mangaka’s struggles, life can be darker and deeper. Art must sell as well. - I liked how the story shows the often ignored struggles of a mangaka, male loneliness and the pressure to create art that sells. It points out how fans often support popular but shallow works, while ignoring deeper stories that don’t grab attention right away. Some actions might seem questionable, but we all deal with life differently. Many Western readers dislike the explicit themes, which suggests these mature, complex stories might not be for more sensitive audiences.

Another Inio Asano masterpiece

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Saw on a top 10 list.

It's not everyones cup of tea, if you are into a more realistic view of a manga artist (or the possibility of what life is like for one) I would reccomend this, I was lead the believe that this was suppose to be some kind of horror manga. While I was slightly disappointed in that, I got a surprise that I enjoyed. It tells you of a story of a man who did finally achieve his dream of being a manga author/artist, but at the cost of intimate relationships outside of his work. The first woman he spoke of gave him a reality check that he didn't realise it until he was too far gone. The realistic style art was amazing and a refreshing change to what I normally see. I was lead to this book through a top 10 horror manga of 2020. This isn't horror but a psychological anlyzation of a manga author.
