There were one or two cases that could have been a bit better or used a bit more detail though. Overall, the art was good-looking and the shading and tones helped in setting the mood. too alive or impactful during moments of fear or anger. Facial expressions were believable too but overall didn't feel The style was more realistic and leaned towards more real-to-life body proportions. The impact shot with the 'Sorry for being a monster.' looked creepy enough.

The impact shots were nice looking and did their job. The environmentals and backgrounds looked a bit above average as they were a bit more filled and detailed. There were a few normal-looking wide shots. There were maybe one or two showcases of artistic skill. There were a few convincing scenes of nature shots. The anatomy and proportions of the human characters checked out. Other than that, I personally wouldn't recommend it, but check it out and see for yourself. If you're only reading this for the gore, then this might be for you.

The only real reason I read through the end at this point was to find out why Kiriko died, and the revelation one of the main characters had concerning that was neat. I'm just disappointed more on how absurd and generic it was rather than being scared by what it had to offer. The characters are also far from interesting, and the story moves in such a predictable way (except for the last chapter).The last two chapters is where it gets interesting but the twist at the end was expected from a mile away. It's filled with cliches and it's just so predictable. The fact that this is also supposed to be about revenge from what the adults did to Kiriko in the past didn't do it for me either. Because I wasn't shocked or disgusted one bit. I guess I was expecting something more than that. But the gory scenes do have a considerable amount of detail and may look cool to I was just unimpressed with the gore, and the monster didn't look that scary to me. It's pretty straightforward and I was really trying hard to like it, but I just felt bored throughout its entirety. Then, that same girl begins to pick them off one-by-one in orderly fashion. The story is nothing special, it's about four adults on a school reunion to celebrate the 16-year anniversary of the death of their classmate, the titular character, Kiriko.

This is a pretty typical splatter-revenge horror manga.
