I noticed that there wasn't a review for this yet, so I will write one! First of all, Doll is probably one of my favorite manga series. Story (9/10) The manga focuses on short stories with a few reoccurring characters and their experiences with these humanoid robotic "dolls" who do all sorts of things for whoever owns them such as housework or even sexual favors. The stories are very unique, some are funny, some are sad, and some are very dark. Chances are if you don't like one story, you may like the next one because of the wide variety. Art (9/10) The art is very interesting, Mitsukazu Mihara has avery unique style. I first discovered this series actually by seeing an article on her artwork in an issue of the Gothic & Lolita Bible. However, sometimes the proportions are a little odd and the hands often look weird. But overall the art is very detailed and some of the pages in between chapters are very beautiful. Character (8/10) Its kind of hard to talk specifically about characters in this manga just because there are so many and they're all quite different. Most of the characters are interesting though and there are a few reoccurring characters with good development. Enjoyment (10/10) I loved reading this manga and I have even reread it a couple of times and gotten the same enjoyment out of the series. I would recommend this to anyone who likes one shots or just wants to read something dark or something a little different than the usual.
These haunting tales of human-like androids, called Dolls, range from romantic to tragic, from comic to ironic, and everything in between. In these stories, dolls have an uncanny way of working themselves into the lives of their masters: A woman develops an unusual closeness to doll that will affect her human family from beyond the grave...A man wants to make his doll into the perfect human lover, but discovers that humans are not perfect...A father buys his son a doll to help him get over the death of his mother. Doll provides a firsthand glimpse into the psychology of the human-doll relationship and examines the question of what it means to be truly human.
