that is a building
Pretty run of the mill storyline. Some of the artwork is quite cool and I love the house conversion at the end.
Very straightforward, excellent art, and ... even more excellent art. Lots of fun.
Kibuishi is a master worldbuilder, and creates worlds that tell stories, rather than merely telling stories that happen in them. The characters are surprisingly nuanced and realistic for the type of story, with memorably perfect notes in the opening sequences before things get fantastic.
