Ashizuri Suizokukan is a collection of short stories. Some of them are very short (7-10 pages) and some of them are one shot length (40-50 pages). All of them are interesting and show a bizarre world mixed in with our "normal" world.

When it comes to the abstraction, this is probably the best aspect of the artstyle, the mangaka really nails it when it comes to the deformation of the normal world into an alien space, and how the abstraction takes a role in the plot, items ... |
