This is a short series but I really loved. One of the resons being the title was deeply connected with both story and character which only catlysed it to give it a good end. Yes reader, it has a good end so dont be anxious and read it to heart's content. The flow and development in story was just right. It could also be termed flawless. Even though story being a little simple, the representation was amazing. Every scene had some meaning attached to it, not only from MC's POV but also from side characters that appeared in it. Even if it was a story about criminalin prison, its scene were rather dull than expected from setting which was not a bad thing but rather heartwarming and empathetic. The art was decent and not over the top so it melded well with the story. All in all this was just a vague review to make you read this manga.

This is a short manga with only 5 chapters. Well worth your time, 30min read tops. Story: 8/10 A journalist goes to a saloon in a Prison. She wants to see what the place is like and learn about inmates rehabilitation. And what see finds is beautiful. Art: 7/10 The art is good, neat and tidy. It is bright.Characters: 8/10 In just 5 short chapters I didn’t expect much character development but this story exceeded my expectations. The protagonist develops, and so does the observer protagonist. Overall: 8/10 I enjoyed the story a lot and you will love it too if you are looking for a light, inspiring short story. It has no drama, action, adventure, or romance. It is just a Slice of Life, and makes you feel good. Not all prison inmates are evil. And redemption is always possible. Thank you for reading this review. Would you go to such a Prison Saloon?
