Kabu’s descent into altered consciousness deepens as he grapples with hallucinations that bleed into waking life. Haunted by guilt, confusion, and flashes of transcendence, his mind becomes a battleground between chemical control and metaphysical liberation. In Volume 2, Keiichi Koike intensifies his visionary storytelling, intertwining cosmic motifs and brutal psychological collapse into a dreamlike meditation on identity, agency, and the illusory nature of freedom within systemic addiction.
