Positive aspects
- the artwork, as I had predicted from the cover
- everything has a sort of cool, washed out tone
- it is grotesque at times, and weird, in the good kind of way
- the character design
Negative aspects
- some scenes transition to others with no explanation whatsoever, and all of a sudden
- not enough information about the past and who the "bad guys" are
- parents are absent: we don't get to see Agnes' parents at all and Mila's are completely unaware and uninvolved
- vague information thrown in
- the lesbian romance was underdeveloped
- the story feels underdeveloped as well
