Laughing Shijima Story Analysis

I don’t get it. It wasn’t scary. It felt a little too wordy (not in a Hunter X Hunter or Bakuman type of way).
It just felt weird and average.

Quit Laughing Shijima looks promising
Really excited for this one-shot, I hope the reception is good and it gets serialised.
