Fetish is a collection of eerie narratives each dealing with a different subject matter but you are left with the impression that there is an elusive connection between them due to the subtle but dense atmosphere created by these stories and linking them together.
The opening story sets the tone for the whole volume and what seems to be a fairly light read, despite being odd and at times mysterious, deceivingly creeps up on the reader. About half-way through the volume I started to really enjoy the narrative and really think about the theme and meaning behind each story. They are all different lengths and the

Your Feelings Categories May 10, 2014
I've been meaning to find something like this, viewer discretion is advised, because some of the content are Psychologically disturbing.

In the end it will keep your mouth hanging open on what the hell did happen drastically and dramatically. But you would also be left hanging at the edge of desperately wanting to know more, as the manga lacked that i took a point out. Art: Artwork is by far surpassed the style of manga itself, i honestly thought and checked about twice whether ... Aug 8, 2018
This manga is quite an uncanny experience. It consists of five short stories connected with similar atmosphere, intriguing story and lack of knowledge about characters and surroundings.
The stories are simple, yet they are told in a way to leave an unsettling feel - we don't know whether the character is dreaming or in reality.

Fetish is a collection of disturbing individual short stories, most of which I liked. While reading, you can sense the atmosphere of the panels, evoking feelings of impending doom, misery, or curiosity. Initially, you might not perceive these emotions at a glance, but upon closer examination, they become palpable.
The illustrations in this manga are remarkably sentimental and artistic, effectively conveying the dark emotions of human beings. Each story delves into the depths of the human psyche. In terms of content, Love Letter struck me as the weakest story. Despite its brevity, "Airport" surprises with its depth and impact compared to Love Letter. Our Vast Loneliness stands ... |
