You may have to read a few chapters to begin to 'get' this manga, and realize it is not just strange, but also wondrous, in a dreamy laid back yet profoundly thought provoking way. Each chapter a story. Most of them with an original and/or surprising plot. A true hidden gem.
I am male, and I found that of no hindrance to enjoying this manga. I actually felt the the story talking to my 'inner male'.
Also worth noting; I always preferred stories that build momentum somewhat slowly (in their own pace), rather than going for 'instant gratification'. If you enjoy the latter more, you should try to put that aside, and give this manga a fair chance.
