The mysticism and numerology may go unexplained, but it’s the foot fetishism, penile amputation and hermaphroditic homosexuality that show just how trippy Herapurple can be.

[Chung's] cast of lissome young demon avatars and buff young victims is more attractive than his barely comprehensible story.
