I'm a big fan of Chainsaw Man, so I had to buy his other books and honestly this did not disappoint. It's only 4 short stories but they show how good of a story teller Fujimoto is! I felt that the last story was the weakest but still good nonetheless. Also, the stories feel very diverse in nature, covering anywhere from serious and adult themes all the way to funny and lighthearted. Glad I bought it, it's the type of book I'd casually pick of the shelf and read through more than once!

These stories are great and very Fujimoto. I like how before each story there is a small blurb from him about why he wrote it.
