A strange story about alien invaders, where the alien invaders dont matter

It's basically taking an alien invasion and putting it to the level of, say, a natural disaster. It's of course horrible, but after awhile it becomes just another part of life. People around it stop caring. News doesnt cover it all that often. It's just there

It's a weird and depressing story, as much of Asano's work is. And this is a good showcase of it.

You care a lot for Kadode and her weird friend who wants to destroy all human life cause screw all y'all. Helped by very natural, engaging, and believeable dialouge, outstanding art, and that strange yet relatable premise. Also the title doesnt come into it so just nonsense.....glorious.

From the first volume i'd say if youre a fan of Asano, or just peculiar slice of life stories, give this a shot
