Its also bug gently caress crazy, were it not obvious from the screenshots.
It's amazing.

The quasi-political/religious side is a framing device for the ultra violence.

Quick warning: Lots of gore. Lots and lots of gore.

The One True Oden

Riki-Oh is great because it goes off the rails in the first arc and then keeps finding more rails to go off of as it goes on.

In a good way!

"At first"? Does it turn into a zombie harem or something? Asking not to be sarcastic or anything, but I've had this on my to-read list, and now I'm curious. :ohdear:

I didn't read that much of it so I didn't want to be responsible for recommending a manga that turned into Saw or something. :v:

The original series of that is extremely fetish fuel where the girl pretty much gets off on making the boy's life hell by abusing him verbally and physically so I have no idea how far this will get before it goes sailing off the deep end

That was a fun read, and it looks like it's getting steady updates. Does anyone know how long it is? All I can find from a quick Google search is that there's 4 volumes via second-hand sellers on Amazon.

Edit: Forgot to add this.

Based on one of the volume covers I found while looking for an answer to my question, I think it's a good possibility?

Hanakaku does have blood. It does not shy away from how bloody MMA can get.

Translator notes says a japanese rapper writes the original rhymes for the series, that’s cool

At a guess, they did their own thing - the meter of that page posted, at least, is hosed up bad.

e: seriously, try and recite it to a rhythm, the syllable count is hosed.

I've only read the five translated chapters, so I don't know how it gets later on. So far, while it doesn't hide the fact injuries happen, it also doesn't glorify or exaggerate them. There's been blood, but it's more on the realistic or even underplayed side of things and not at all gory.
