Man has always been trying to reach out to God in an attempt to understand why the former was created from the latter’s image. Often, the endeavor strays from its intended path, becoming bold, devious, and wrong. “Reaching out to God” suddenly becomes “Reaching God”, and “Reaching God” can even become “Overthrowing God and Taking His Place”. I can only imagine much, but I think I’ve seen some of the best examples of Man’s attempts from this excellent piece of paperback.
Hallucination from the Womb is the second tankoubon volume of compiled works by Kitoh Mohiro, an artist known for drawing disturbing scenarios concerning human behavior in a futuristic background. Now, before I do share the general sentiment of the book, I’ll do have to warn you guys that the manga itself is NOT SAFE FOR WORK. It’s pretty touchy stuff, and Mohiro-san seems to have taken a liking to drawing deformed and underdeveloped girls for the story’s characters. Other than that humble reminder, we’re good.
