Art - Detailed yet some of the facial expressions irritate me. Scary characters look genuinely scary, which is a nice quality.
Overall : 7.5/10 - Intriguing plot and characters you can't get enough of (IMO). Having said that, I can only suggest this manga to people who can tolerate high doses depravity as the backbone is medley of rape-murder, female degradation, gore, brutal violence, torture and very hentai themes. More messed up than its movie adaptation and one of the most disturbing manga I've read.

Some might also know this as ichi the killer
I loved the manga and the film.
