Personal Opinions
Redcrimson
This show isn't for everyone. A few of the scenes were pretty uncomfortable to sit through, so if you have any qualms about the premise or subject matter, you should probably turn back now. That being said, it was an excellent and touching story. The controversial premise is handled tastefully. The art is fluid, bright and unique. The characters are incredibly complex and are well-developed. The pace is somewhat grueling, but the payoff at the end is well worth it.
