I would say this is a 7/10 and no its not that i think this is funny or bullshit like that i think it is a 7/10 because of what mangaka suehiro maruo is trying to say he isn't trying to tell a story of a young girl who is in the circus he is telling the story of our society and how bad it is. he wants people to see that society is not just a fun place to be there is always bad behind it when i first watched this i thought "what sick bastard wrote this!!" then when i watch itone more time just to see if there was a deeper meaning behind it i thought right.
