Read this a long time ago and to be honest the horror that I got back then differ from what I feel now. The uneducated me back then was scared because of the disgusting portrayal of the infected, similar to how I felt of the movie Saw. But now, I fear of the fact that a single cell (well, in this case it's not even a cell per se) with the sole purpose of preserving its kind, much like us, could totally wipe out humanity without warning and we'll be forever in battles to combat them until god knows when (maybe when he's had enough, or bored).
But still, this manga was a big turning point of my life. The thing that inspired me to take on microbiology (and suffered because of it) in uni. Hope that 5 years of education taught me something.
