The illustrations were cool. The book reads from right to left, as does most manga, but inexplicably the introduction is printed at the back (what would be the front if it were a typical book). I read through the whole thing and was completely confused. If I had read the introduction I would have had the right frame of mind – Yokoyama apparently creates “serial images” that are as divorced from human emotions as possible; a temporal painting of sorts. Sounds cool... I wish that is how I read it. Instead it was a lot of cool but confusing panels.
