Plot/Story
One wolf hidding amongst rabbits - with that premise, Rabbit Doubt became one of the most popular online games for cellphones in Japan. All the players have a cute rabbit avatar, and every round, one of them is picked to be a disguised wolf. The wolf must eat the rabbits, and the rabbits must discover who the wolf is before getting killed. Every round, they hang the rabbit they think to be a wolf in disguise. If they are correct, they win, but if they are wrong...
The game became so popular that some of the players meet IRL. Yuu is one of those players. Along with a non-player girl friend, he meets a boy and two girls who are his online friends. They go to karaoke, and everything wents nice until-
Yuu's vision fades to black. When he wakes up, he's in a warehouse, along with his friends. Another boy - one who coldn't make to the meeting - is there, and says he was attacked too. But one of Yuu's friends is missing. When she's found...
She's dead. Someone decided to turn the game into reality, and Yuu must discover who's the wolf hidding between them before it's too late.
--------------
Okay, so everyone will first think of SAW when reading this manga - is impossible not to. It also reminded me of Agatha Christie's story of 10 people in an island getting killed one by one. 'Deadly game' plot left aside, it's great to try and guess who's behind it all, and there are many mysteries besides this one to solve. A MUST for mystery freaks.
Characters
The characters are kinda cliché. There's the typical carefree and innocent main shounen character, the yankee, the suspicious guy with glasses, the sexy girl with big boobs, the cute and gentle girl and the childhood best friend.
Still, they are all lovely. I can't help but love the cliches here.
Drawing Style
GREAT.
The characters are drawn in a very cute way, but in more dark scenes, they get all scary. Specially the rabbits. There are LOTS of scary scenes, but the author can change the balance very well between the 'happy' scenes and the tension ones.
The background is also made of win and awesome.
Enjoyment
I enjoyed it a lot! A thriller, definitely. What happens next?! Who's going to die?! Who's the criminal?! I can't wait for the next chapter!! And I bet that you won't, too, if you begin to read it.
Overall
Nice plot and great art, loveable characters. For every mystery fan~
