While there aren’t too many chapters out at the moment, the whole manga seems to have potential. It has a unique plot plot that I have never seen before, and really interesting world building that takes advantage of the incredible visuals and surreal yet dark atmosphere the story provides. The characters are pretty interesting too, the main character in particular giving off vibes of that protagonist in boys abyss. I think that, as a whole, this series has a lot to offer.
In short, it’s really promising, so I recommend you to give this a try if that’s your kind of thing to read.

My initial impression of this manga was that it seemed like a bit of a hammy dystopian fic, but the more I read, the more I find it's really well executed. The moral quandaries and interpersonal relationships are actually pretty complex only a couple of volumes in. I was initially worried that the series would be a shallow display of desperation, but instantly we've mixed it with mystery and fear of the unknown. The first real case (i.e. the pianist) presented some really intriguing conflicted emotions between characters. I'm really excited to see where the story goes.
I can also say that the art is really ... interesting. I'll be interested to see the new covers as volumes release.

I first started reading this manga because of a friend which recommended it to me. Right on the first chapter, it already had me going - the concept as a whole is so creative and interesting.

I won't really spoil much, but the thing about fool night is that everything is plausible and coherent as fuck. Like, i could perfectly imagine this story happening exactly like it's written. The characters feel very human, but what catches me the most is how the author handles the complexity of this theme in such a natural way.

It's political. Very political. The critics are strong, and everything is structured ... just like our regular society. You see, everything that happens makes so much sense it's flabbergasting.

Not only that, to discredit the art would be a sin. Fool Night's art is superb, the mangaka shows extreme mastery on human anatomy, fighting choreography and page compositions.

It's actually scaring how underrated this masterpiece is, such a work of art. More people should read it, and it should absolutely get a anime adaptation that makes up to it.

Absolute 10/10.
