Mais uma vez, surgem revelações interessantes que alteram o rumo dos acontecimentos.

Uma série repleta de plot twists e viragens inesperadas.

Honestly surprised who LL was, it wasn’t like “OMG IT’S HIM” but more like an “oh wow that’s crazy”. I love the narrative this volume took and how it lead to the reveal. There are two more volumes left and now we see the end game.

Eiji por fin se entera quién es el verdadero LL, pero... ¿se sintió medio flat? Tipo después de tanto investigar y de tantos dead ends... ¿cómo llegó a la conclusión sobre quién era el verdadero asesino? ¿Porque vio una foto? Hmm... funny...

3.25 de 5 estrellas.

Trauma on trauma on trauma INSANE PLOT TWISTS

[Michael Sorbello · Rating 5 out of 5]

Eiji is your typical shy college student trying to find himself, get a pretty girlfriend and cruise through life with no issues. Unfortunately his father was a brutal serial killer that left a stain on his family that follows him around everywhere he goes, and the emergence of a split personality with dark and violent tendencies gets him wrapped up in a murderous conspiracy where his dangerous alter ego seems to be his own worst enemy. Is he doomed to involuntarily follow in his disgraced father’s footsteps?

I thought this series would be a bit predictable considering I’ve seen this type of horror thriller before, but it ended up throwing dozens of unexpected twists at me, none of them being what I predicted given the premise. The truth behind both of Eiji’s personalities ended up being more twisted and complex than I had originally imagined.

What really won me over with this series is how unexpectedly complex and multilayered the entire cast of side characters ended up being. At first, the side characters all seem very simplistic and forgettable with one dimensional character tropes, but almost every single side character ends up having dark secrets of their own that are even more insane than those of the protagonist. Hardly anyone in this story is completely innocent, everyone is involved in the mass murder conspiracy in some way or another and the puzzle keeps getting bigger and bigger until the very end where everything is finally pieced together.

Don’t be deceived by the predictable opening with familiar psychological horror cliches. The series gets more intense, unpredictable and challenging to figure out the longer it goes on and the payoff at the end hits really hard. Eiji is a tragic character that’s easy to hate at times but incredibly sympathetic, the side characters all have fascinating subplots of their own as well. It has a slow build up but gets significantly better with each volume.

Sprytnie zainstalowana kamerka nagrywa kolejnego odwiedzającego, który nie rozumie, że godziny wizyt to już po, a i należy zachować odpowiednią odległość od pacjenta, żeby przypadkiem no... powiedzmy aby nie wykitował.

I kurde, naprawdę nie miałam pomysłu, kim może być ta osoba, bo generalnie to większość tropów już się posprzątała. Ale zapomniałam, że czasem postacie poboczne, tak na pierwszy rzut oka, okażą się istotne. No i masz. Nie spodziewałam się, oj nie. Ale za to idąc tym tropem byłam bardzo blisko przy zgadnięciu, kim jest LL. Bo tak - dostajemy odpowiedź. Co prawda jeszcze niepotwierdzoną, ale kij tam, trop solidny jest.

I have mixed feelings about the reveal in this volume. On the one hand, it was good. On the other hand, it kind of “ruined” one of the most sympathetic characters in this story, who also happened to be my favourite up to this point.

What was than ending oh my godddddd!!!!!! I can’t believe this, I hate it when authors do this to me *cries*. I trusted you, Eiji’s adoptive dad!

Plottwist 🙊

LL's identity was already expected; but it was cool, anyways.

[C. · Rating 4 out of 5]

I totally did not expect LL to be Eiji's adoptive father, holy shit.

With the exception of a few, everyone's pretty much insane in this manga series.

[Rina~ · Rating 4 out of 5]

Hm, teraz jak już wiem to mam wrażenie, że to było oczywiste XD

[Craig Schorling · Rating 4 out of 5]

There is a lot going on and it keeps adding new mysteries and reveals but it also continues to be entertaining. It hasn't gotten so bloated that it feels like its being padded out. This volume felt very concise and focused. The cliffhanger was a big reveal that I am excited to see resolved.
