Synopsis

Meet Mon, a violent killer faithful only to his own eruptive desires, and his timid companion Toshi, a demolition-devil with a fanatical thirst for destruction. Their killing-spree across Japan is destined to intersect the path of the enormous "Higumadon", a mysterious beast on a Godzilla-like rampage from Hokkaido to Tokyo.

Even to those most unphased by fictional violence (by far it's not the most gory or otherwise visceral manga) the context and realism of the actions depicted in ...

"The World Is Mine" is ugly inside and out. The art is ugly, and while it does get slightly better as the story progresses, it stays ugly. This ugliness manages to be both consequential and apt, considering the subject matter displayed throughout the story.
The story manages to be both incredibly grating and relentlessly jarring. Occasionally the plot moves at a brutal, breakneck pace that manages to excite for a few scant chapters before grinding to a halt and indulging in what one might consider a "character study" or more appropriately "a fifty page monologue ripped from the LiveJournal of the average stoned teenager". The scope ...
