The art style is endearing because it doesn't depict every character to have the same face with different hair like many shoujo and romance manga, but the characters also don't have outrageously obvious differing features like shounen and adventure usually does. It's subtle and honest.
The hyper-realism of the cover is very off putting. I like that though, when art becomes offensive, there's something about it that draws you in.
Nothing wrong with people saying they don't like the cover though people, not all art is meant to be aesthetically pleasing to the viewer.
The actual art of the manga is very good though, and that story line is pretty fucked up, but damn if that wasn't an amazing read.
