Good art, bad characters

Shinji-like trash mc and manipulative blackmail using female lead. Too bad, art looks good. If only the genders were swapped...

The ecchi is minor unless you are a prude. The horror elements and overall story are amazing. Read it, and love it.

If you can ignore the ecchi and FL

by Utsukushii Yume

The female lead and the out of place ecchi killed this manga for me. When I can I skip the female lead screen and just focus on everyone else, I do so without hesitation. Fortunately, everybody else matters more than she does for now, and I find a twisted joy when the story pushes her aside to focus on far more interesting and more likeable characters.

I won't spoil anything, but the big plot revel isn't anything we haven't seen before, but I am interested in seeing how the characters will resolve this issue, preferably with as little female lead screen time as possible.

The ecchi almost made me put this book down as it is up front and center without any purpose, almost every girl itching to orgasm or strip naked at any random and pointless moment. You could literally cut all of those scenes or tone them down to just casual things happening in the background and the story would remain unchanged.

Would I recommend this? Because it took a massive amount of will power for me to continue reading it due to the ecchi and female lead, I would not recommend this to anybody that I personally know. That said, if ecchi doesn't bother you and you can ignore the female lead and focus on the plot, then you might find this a strange, but nice read.

Female lead too annoying

by MondoX

Rating: N/A

The series may have been decent, but I could not stand the female lead. The female lead is one of those annoying characters that finds MC's secret, and nags him and threatens to expose him to have her way. The male MC wanted a quiet life, but the female lead is not having any of that. She blackmails the MC use his power for her benefit. If someone does not mind these types of females leads, then you might somewhat like the story.

If nothing else, unique

If you don't mind some (mildly) darker themes, I definitely recommend this.

The male MC is very unsure of himself, the female MC is kinda damaged but is able to formulate and execute her plans pretty effectively, and the general tone of the work is somewhat dark. It kind-of reminds me of Aku no Hana and Shin Seiki Evangelion (Neon Genesis) mashed together, but not quite as dark, nor as obviously introspective. I think this work's particular blend is fairly unique, and probably one of my favorite applications of the themes it uses, although it probably isn't going anywhere truly new.

Like it so far; damn cliff hangers though...

Don't know how to hide spoilers or anything, so I'm just going to say that it looks really promising so far. As long as the girl doesn't go all "insane obsessive-for-reaction" on the MC or anything (like sadistic-sexual or cheat or do whatever to extra torment the poor guy) then I'll definitely read till the end. Hope chapter four gets translated soon...

Alright it is funny..that suit ,and dark ...I like it .

Alright now this MC is interesting seems he considers himself not to be human...Because he can transform into a mascot suit...WTF... I mean the cover for this is what got me here but i really didn't understand it ...now I do so allow me to sum it up for you
MC can turn into a weird stitched together dog mascot ; is smart and receives good grades; he rejects a scholarship because he doesn't feel he is human ; either he or a car killed a racoon and there were a few frames of that so I think he did it ; so our MC exhibits animistic behavior when he goes into his suit form...; now random girl, from the cover image, decides to put herself in a building and set it on fire to get our MC to save her and he does; so suit boy suits up and goes into the fiery building saves her and almost rapes her ..animistic impulses ;) ; they meet the next day because she stole his /he dropped his phone and boom there ya have it.
Our MC is a kid and the female in this attractive ,now as for taking this seriously or finding it creepy ...imagine attack on titan where the body decays and appears out of nowhere -but no pain is required ...but still you act on animistic impulses...and you are in a big stupid dog thing mascot suit (lol) now I just found this funny and dark so form your own opinion.
