Since the anime got cancelled afaik, is it worth reading the manga? What do you think?

Definitely. I powered through it after watching the series and it's just as bizarre all the way through.

Absolutely! The anime is a very good adaptation, and going for a sort of baroque style was a good choice from Mappa, but there's little bits here and there that have been cut, and Q Hayashida's deliciously punk and bizarro style alone make a read worth it. If you've enjoyed what you've seen until now, let me tell you that it's tame compared to the rest of the ride.

Its a great read, the plot is fun and as others mentioned the art especially is rather different (was initially taken aback but then loved it, its very fitting)

I only wish they had left out the fan service (which as usual was directed at men), which to me cheapened an otherwise excellent manga.
