I picked this up after hearing a fair bit about it, it was exactly what i was expecting , which isn't bad at all. I do feel like this would be better as a show since the story moves very episodically.
I do enjoy that the main character has other hobbies or quirks that make him a charming and enjoyable and that he has a motivation.
I'll admit though the content is like the title, Brutal, when it came to some scenes i do wish it wasn't as dragged out like in scene regarding assault.
I overall did enjoy it though despite that. Some parts were even funny just because of how outrageous some scenes were, which made it fun to read. Such as the bunjee jump scene. Simple things also made it charming like the ugly pottery.
When you see the bad people within the story you're mostly thinking "alright lets see what happens to em".
Definitely reminds me a tiny bit of Girl From Nowhere premise wise but i feel this is different enough from it. Overall 8/10 because it made me giggle.
