A dark coming-of-age tale where slice-of-life slices back.
This is Punpun Onoderas coming-of-age story. His parents marriage is falling apart. His dad goes to jail, and his mom goes to the hospital. He has to live with his loser uncle. He has a crush on a girl who lives in a weird cult. Punpun tries talking with God about his problems, but God is a jerk. Punpun keeps hoping things will get better, but they really, really dont.
This is the end, Punpun.
