   It looks pretty good. There's no female lead, and no ambiguous relationships (the teacher at the beginning is a proper teacher, and a really nice person, though we don't know if she dies later; she doesn't have much screen time in her class, only appearing a few times and saying just a couple of lines). The protagonist's personality also precludes any ambiguous relationships; the currently updated parts don't even have one-sided feelings. The writing is quite good, the style and setting are both good. The protagonist is rather eccentric (although he deliberately reveals some flaws in the early stages, he's essentially someone who uses people as poison, whether they know each other or how much they've interacted doesn't matter), but he has no interest in indiscriminate killing for pleasure.
