It is 100% worth it. For a way too long time in my life, I assumed it was just “edgy grimdark badass violence”, because I had only had a quick look at the first chapter. Without spoiling too much - it is in fact one of the best character explorations out there and masterfully develops from that initially simple-seeming premise.

Personally, it became my favourite manga, and one of my favourite stories told, period.

Its so good and I’ve only just scratched the surface. Not even at the eclipse yet, not that I have any idea why that event is so significant lmao. My roommate got me into it and has been hyping it up.
