Boy's Abyss, Vol. 1 by Ryō Minenami
4.0

Weird yet very intrigued.

Basically our main character, Reiji, has a pretty shitty life. He's depressed most of the time thanks to his living conditions. His mom relies on him for everything, his Grandma has dementia, his brother is a loser shut in who's violent, and he just feels like he'll be stuck in this shitty town because of his living situation.

Then he meets a girl. And girls change your life. Go from depressing to oooooh you're hot. But this girl is actually a Ex-Idol living in this shitty town and now they begin something special but the deeper we get into it, the darker the story gets, and the more fucked up this whole entire town truly is.

The thing is I'm not sure what is real and what isn't. It all feels like a fairy tale, a dark one, but also a intriguing one. I can't stop looking away from the disaster I know is coming. Be prepared to read about suicide, depression, abuse, ect before jumping into this though.
