Positive submitted by jyballard on July 22, 2021, 6:05pm Everything is really well drawn and the style blends well with the story. All designs and especially the Ajin's mysterious "ability" make the story more engaging. The seriousness of this manga describes very well how we humans act in face of death and pain.
