Flowers of Evil, Volume 2
Unlike [other manga],The Flowers of Evilunderstands that ’strength’ comes from great insecurities and weakness. However, this ’strength’ is not about climbing mountains and emerging victorious. This involves strength in crossing the dark side of the mountain and how to bask in it—nourishing our personal demons...By loving this manga I recognize what a sick and twisted individual I have become. While I can still say that I am not truly deviant,Flowers of Evilis a great reminder of my own thirst for power and my own personal corruption.” —Otaku Champloo
