Actually, I'm in the middle of reading something as I type this. Oyasumi Punpun kinda starts out lighthearted and funny but in the later chapters it does get rather serious about issues with human nature that you've pointed out, though a bit more realistic. I'd imagine it's something you could possibly relate to, specifically at about the chapter 30 mark.
Your pasta is weak because it's trying to target an extreme. A person that purposely manipulates others and doesn't give a damn. A person that doesn't feel guilty at all for toying with others, and I honestly doubt there are many people on these forums that can relate to it at all.
Do tell.
I've a love for dystopic and depressing settings/stories, so i'll consider looking this up at another time.
And if it fails then oh well. The target I tried to paint for it would be a girl going through emotional stress, conflicted with clashing emotions and thoughts/rationale. someone who's made some poor choices in life and that would come back to haunt them later. Maybe I shouldn't have made such a specific target for that, but I'm too lazy to think up something more vague/open to interpretation at present.
