Anime loves to get freaky. That's the general consensus from people who don't actually watch Japanese animation and just assume it's all for weirdos. In truth, anime is a vast medium that strives to evoke all kinds of emotions across expansive fantasy worlds or heightened realities similar to our own. But yes, it does also like to get freaky on occasion, and it just so happens that the weirdest series out right now is also this season's best.
Written by Joumyaku and illustrated by Mizuki Yoda, the story of MarriageToxin revolves around a young man named Hikaru Gero who struggles with love. Like so many others, Gero is a workaholic who's caught up with his job, unable to carve out time for dating. But unlike so many others, Gero just so happens to be a professional assassin who works for the Poison Clan, using toxins to enhance his strength and kill anyone who stands in his way.
