Description
Yumiko Kawahara's disturbing short stories explore the strange and codependent world of dolls and the people who own them.

These cautionary tales must come from some desire to teach people a lesson, for in each one there is a horrible outcome when the doll enters their homes.

I own all four volumes and I've read this series multiple times. The stories range from sweet and heartwarming to creepy and gothic. As the description says, many of the stories are cautionary tales and have somewhat of a fairy tale-like vibe to them. It's not the dolls themselves that are bad, but rather the humans who become obsessed with them.

A highly recommended read!

I've only read the 4th volume of this but i already love it. The plots are interesting and the art is amazing. A must read for anyone who loves great gothic lolita-ish costume.
