(Ignore my ratings, you should dictate the enjoyment yourself)
What definitely makes manga great would be that it goes over a broad range of themes/topics. Manga isn't afraid of addressing taboo topics, nor does it avoid concepts that most other entertainment mediums WOULDN'T DARE to touch. They also provide an imaginative exploration of how the Japanese perceive these topics. We rarely get cultural perspectives on certain topics.

Includes topics that are rare in animanga compared to other mediums.

Incest. Instead of it being a comedy trope or otaku fetish, this manga takes the topic very seriously/responsibly with care and tact without being preachy. The manga shows the perspective of a realistic incestuous relationship. It doesn't outright state whether the feelings of the characters are right or wrong. It leaves it up for the viewer to decide.
