This manga is so cool... Why is no one talking about this??? The art is impressive, the story was cool and the world was really interesting. I think more manga should be like this. Super dark and psychedelic. You never know who to trust when reading this. The only thing that I wish this manga was, is longer. It's super short and the ending is a bit open ended. If you're not into dark-horror stories, this is definitely not for you... It's quite graphic and contains quite some gore. If there's any manga/anime that I could compare this to, it'd be made in abyss. Really darkand messed up with a really cool world filled with really cool characters.

Synopsis

The world is in a perilous state with wizards preying on ordinary humans to satisfy their desires. Howcuttle, a wizard afflicted with an endless hunger, sets out to find a way to end his curse when he meets a young girl named Beni. Although she seems frail, the truth is that Beni is cursed with a poisonous, immortal body. However, it becomes clear that she has no perspective of the outside world, leaving her with only pure innocence and an unknown origin. Interested in seeing the world Howcuttle talks about, Beni decides to tag along with him. Although the world is ghastly, their new journey together uncovers much more beyond the desolation.

This manga doesn't get enough love, its super unique! Howcuttle the very eerie but somehow goofy and Beni a strange little child go off on an adventure. They go to a few different places and each one is more strange than the last. The world and characters are horrific and whimsical. The art is dark, gorey, but oddly funny at times! Its a very unique take on a post-apocalyptic setting. Gave me Dorohedoro and Dai Dark vibes! Its definitely a story that has you wanting to know more about the world. Sadly they don't go into it enough as it is a very short manga, butit just makes it more mysterious! If you like dark and funny mangas with a mystery you'll enjoy this one!
