I hadn't heard of this one, but I am loving the art. Really hope to see an official release. Could Pumpkin Night be added to the ANN encyclopedia for easy future reference?

This one can be a tough one to swallow. There is a very heavy handed anti-bullying message throughout, and a lot of the characters tend to be paper thin, which kinda explains how they get cut up so easily.

There's also a very obvious caricature of Donald Trump in this one, so YMMV on that.

@prime_pm:

Hmm... thanks for the warning. I haven't done a trashy kind of horror manga in a while, and the few pages I saw online sort've reminded me a bit of Reiko the Zombie Shop and Lychee Light Club. Am I way off base?
