Much like its pretty-much-source Psycho- S1 (the anime series), 'Kanshikan Tsunemori Akane' reveals a gruesome reality some 80ish years in the future. And much like I've recommended Psycho to anime newcomers from my social circles with great success, the manga has reaped similar adoration by my friends and acquaintances.

What I really liked here is that there's a surprising depth to Akane's internal thoughts/feelings. You could see the same in the anime series too, but the manga did a very good (or maybe even better?) job at depicting this process in written form.

Look, if you liked Psycho S1, you'll like this adaptation too. To ... some this might be a repetition of what you've already seen; to me it's interesting to see how things translate between a fully animated/more fluid form and a seemingly (but only seemingly) more static form jailed between the manga s.

The series is a suspense-filled, high-octane action show with psychological and philosophical aspects and its fair amount of gore. It was nice to see this being translated REALLY well into manga form too; this piece of art is as gripping and anxiety-inducing as the anime itself.

I found the art to be janky on some occasions and it's not really spectacular in any way. However, it carries the ideological torch of Psycho well.

A solid 9/10 (realistically, a 8.5/10 though).
