"Bizarre Japanese occult scifi camp." That sums the Leviathan manga up fairly well. Either the translation here is bad, or it genuinely has truly bizarre dialogue. I'm inclined to think both. The series has the imagery to match its dialogue.

Magical surgery to separate people into halves each with its own brain hemisphere. A giant who can read genes by looking at the objects possessing those genes. A main character patched together from six people, each part still possessing a bit of its own personality. Some warped gore. Nietzesche is on the side of Heaven, which is a Ruthless Light where Hell is Corruption. Alien Child of God. A weredog detective.

And an unborn apocalypse, frozen in time. Both having happened and not.

Not much about this series makes sense, but I've found it to be very interesting. Not necessarily good, but interesting.
