I don't think I get the essences of the three stories. I haven't read such peculiarity since forever. Nevertheless, I am captivated by the story-telling and art style.

Story 1 is a constant mystery in reality. I'm not sure which side I believe in or am following. It provokes a sense of wonder in feminism - maybe a subtle discussion on the subject. It has psychological thriller and horror elements yet the canvas remains mostly blank.

Story 2 is the one I have the toughest time trying to understand or relate to. What does it mean? Is it the translation that makes it difficult to comprehend? Or do I need more cultural and social contexts to get the gists of it? I don't get it now, not sure when I will.

Story 3, to my surprise, finally kicks and becomes the most resonant of the collection - only in the second chapter. Maybe because I can relate to the central ideas and share similar sentiments; even if it seems wooden, the emotions are there. What I realised is that the author tries to reflect and project the world, maybe her world, into her works but in different wording, distinctive art and styling, and quite... strange narrations.

I'm not sure if I will remember this in the future. I like how this manga stimulates my thinking and reflection.

Very confusing and unlikeable leads

The art is really weird in a bad way compared to her usual style. It looks like the author sketched bare minimum and nothing was outlined in pen.

I had no idea what was happening. The story just jumps into an investigator questioning a high school girl in a jail, about her home life, and random people we don't know. It seems like something very bad has happened, but we don't know what. We also don't care.The girl seems weird and crazy in a 'lel so random' way.

She just says weird stuff that doesn't make sense, and that sounds like she's trying to be deep.

The investigator is really bland and unlikeable. She just has no real personality beyond 'get this girl to answer my questions' and she seems really bad at her job. The 16 year old high schooler manages to fluster the 45+ year old investigator with her pseudo-deep comments like 'You are completely different than me'.

i couldn't get past one chapter. I guess the author tried something new, but it's too much in a direction that doesn't suit the author at all. It's trying to be noir mystery but the characters are so bland that we as an audience don't care about the mystery.
