Trepanation is the procedure of drilling a hole in the skull. It is said to increase the blood circulation and improve pressure inside the skull. It is also said to bring out a person's sixth sense, the ability to use ESP, see ghosts, move objects with one's mind. This is speculative fiction based on the concept of trepanation.

What a trip

This is a deeply psychological and artsy way of showing the troubles of an insurance agent in a capitalist society. Lots of moral dilemmas and thought experiments are explored using body horror and hallucinatory imagery. It's very weird but hooks u in as you read - NOT a light read and u'll need time to digest this. Only read this if u like to explore existential thoughts and maybe some of the dark side of urself. Great manga.
