Description
The main character is a detective, Kazuhiko Amamiya, suffering from Multiple Personality Disorder (a.k.a. Dissociative Identity Disorder). Starting out as a violent detective series with a twist (the twist being the variant personalities that take over Detective Amamiya at various intervals), the series evolves into an exceptionally complex and involved sci-fi conspiracy story.

Must read. Knives,blood,blood ,eyes. Plants from heads, a lot of freaks^_^
Unique story and plot, the art is attractive, i recommend this to everyone lookiing for a series read. 
Spoiler (highlight to view)
Read the manga cause of the great reviews... got a kick in the balls after reading up to the latest chapter. The basic plot is that the main character has mulitple personalities, all of which are needed to revive some psychotic homicidal badass that committed suicide years ago.
I'm pretty open with manga/manwha storylines, but this one is just too nonsensical for me. I do not see any of that 'sublime beauty' or 'awe inspiring storyline' that other readers are going on about. The main character doesn't leave any impression with me at all (multiple personalities included).
I prefer Homunculus... at least that is interesting.

A very good Horror manga, full of blood, guts, gore, and plenty of weirdos, who just love death. The twists are great, as are the personalities of the criminals; they are just so heart-thumping.
Bored 
. I read through volume 3 and all the time 1 question keep pop up in my head: Should I waste more time ? I love seinen and Psychological genre as they all have good plot and philosophy. But what MPD psycho show is more like a commercial , pop culture manga. The main character has multiple personal ? Nonsense. All of his character does not show any impression. For me he only has 2 persona only( or maybe just one ): a bland personal and a bland twisted one. If u ever read Homunculus u would see the difference. Homunculus is far more great than this second-class

To tell you the truth, the idea sounded nice. I mean, here, I just read DeathNote, and I wanted a little more of the same kind of gorey-dramatic-brilliant morbidity.
And I'd heard that MPD Psycho was good, if not better. So I tried it.
But really, it's not quite as good as I hoped. And it's not b/c it's too commerical or whatever, because it isn't really. It's quite twisty, but it's too twisty, to the point where you lose track, and eventually, lose interest.
Sure, the scenes are...a lot more violent(and gorey:]) but art isn't the only thing readers pay attention to. Um, a GOOD, LOGICAL plotline would also be helpful?
But anyway, I'm just ranting. The art's not half bad, I suppose, if you like the bleak and black style. And if you want to keep track of a story that barely follows any sense, then you'll love this manga. It fits that description to a T.

Teronist...I totally agree, plants from heads PWN! ^-^ I love this series its intresting, and bloody...vicious and psychotic...I LOVE IT 
I highly reccomend!
I highly reccomend!This manga has a highly convoluted and implausible storytelling which it goes some way towards compensating for with outlandish, grotesque scenes. If it had tried to be of the action genre rather than a detective/thriller series this apporach might have worked. However it didn't.
This manga is rubbish.
