Reception

Jonathan Greenall of Comic Book Resources praised the dialog and "Frankenstein-like" horror elements in the story.[2] Rowan Grover of Multiversity Comics praised the action, characters, and double-page speeads, though Grover felt its art "has never come off as the most intricate or visually detailed".[1]

The series has been nominated for the Next Manga Award in the print manga category in 2023.[11]
