One Hundred Views of Reality
Kijitori Byu is an independent cartoonist active in the Comitia doujin (self publishing) comics scene, whose style mixes surreal, sometimes humorous situations, with abstract subject matter and a simplified line, effected to deeply thought-provoking and poignant result. Their self-published collection "Zenbu Toki ni Atta", which One Hundred Views of Reality draws from and expands on, was a jury selection for the 20th Japan Media Arts Award.
One Hundred Views of Reality collects 300+ pages worth of Byu’s short story manga for the first time, including their highly-regarded cult classic works A Long Stay, BYTE / Part Time Job, A Country Called America, and many more. A rare glimpse into the slightly surreal alternative Comitia doujin scene of the early 2010s.

This was an interesting compilation of short stories. I enjoyed some of them, but most left me puzzled or indifferent. I think I was not the target for this kind of surrealist stories.
