This manga is such a nice breath of fresh air, while short and simple it also manages to be so unique and also very fun. I can see how some people may not like this manga, those who want a bit more of a deep plot, and there were a few times I would have liked to see the plot develop a bit more. But as it stands I really like this manga.
Plot- The plot is quite simple, and while it hints that it could become a deeper and more intricate plot it stays simple. It’s still a nice plot and has the feel of a slice of life and less of a sci-fi. There are some hints at a deeper plot, more troubles, and a more complex plot line but that’s all they are, hints, and the story itself doesn’t delve into them, but they aren’t cliff hangers either that leave you wondering and agonizing over them. So for some this might be a turn off as the story begins and ends really where it began.
Characters- The greatest part of this manga, the characters, they were all so different and unique and it’s really quite hard to not like at least one of these characters! However I really felt they could have been developed a lot more, we got hints at their background and hints at character growth but in the short time of the manga we don’t see those hints becoming more than just hints. The characters are still great even despite this and are quite a fun crew to read about.
Art- The art is very nice, the only complaint I have about the art work is some of the background, they are pretty much just pictures blurred so everything looks a bit more stenciled with heavy tones (this might not be what most of the backgrounds are but that’s what it looks like) and its very jarring to see these very life like images and then see the obviously drawn character, especially when they are standing in front of those backgrounds. While this doesn’t detract from the artwork of the characters or the story in general it interrupts the flow of the paneling just a bit.
Other- I really enjoyed this manga, its fresh and very unique. I just wish it went on longer, there was so much that could have been fleshed out, so many plotlines that could have been expounded upon and characters developed. Even so as the manga is right now it’s still very good and I recommend it.
6/10- Liked it
