Stigmata is pretty well paced, cohesive, and entertaining for lovers of unexpectedly blooming feelings, lite supernatural crime mystery, and a bit of guro with tasteful sex to cap it off. The art is a mix of comic-esque and beautiful. It's a bit strange in places (particularly with big smiles, which look more strained than happy), but usually pleasant otherwise. Though the panelling is extremely simple — more like a scrolling webcomic on paper. The story is relatively simple as well and doesn't dive too deep into the potential angsts/hangups the characters are presented to have — though it comes off more as mature personal regulation thannaivety. The main characters are smart and not overly impulsive or ridiculous with their worries. Their feelings and choices feel logical.

The included sex scenes aren't censored, but they do have either little detail or utilize convenient censoring with character positioning. They are relatively realistic in practice, and also include prep and accessories (condoms, lube, etc.). Also, they have body hair.

Overall, it's a fun and mature (both in story and explicit imagery) short read.
