I haven’t started this series, but I have heard some good things in the manga and anime. It is a series that is currently being streamed by Crunchyroll and HBO Max. However, despite the series getting praised, we have reports of some bad news.

Released in a police report, Viz Media (English Publication Company) translator Stefan Koza was arrested for accounts of child pornography. According to the Herndon Police Department, Koza faces five counts of possession and five felony cases of distribution of child pornography. The arrest took place in December 7th, 2020.
