Dolls Fall

First things first. My "reviews" system is explained on a blog entry. Which can be found through my profile. ------ ✦Story Interesting premise about witches and orphanage. First time seeing this type of combination. Story was a bit conglomerated and confusing but quite intriguing. I lost track at some story aspects and the "Background" of the whole situation. As well "powers" were a bit random. But aside that it was pretty cruel and gruesome story with some surprises. Since short manga, it was somewhat fast paced and the way it was wrapped up felt a bit weak. ✦Art Cute moegirls, great designs, great scenery and gruesome gore. Found artquite good. ✦Character Many different type of moeblob girls with their own tragic past. Witches with twisted view and few side-kicks that have odd purpose. Aside that I cannot say much without spoiling. Characters were good enough, but not too amazing. Probably the cause would be the length of the manga. ✦Enjoyment & Overall Cute girls, edgy plot, gore in a disturbing and sad manner. Quite enjoyable piece of work. But sadly suffers from lack of information. So for plot hunters, it's probably bad. But in general, it's good enough.

From the author of corpse party comes another gory manga with loli's in dire situations coupled with constant panty wetting and with sheer gruesome scenes at times. Though having said that this manga wasn't by any means a good read and many a times left me scratching my head trying to understand what it wanted to say. Story 3/10 Well the synopsis pretty much sums up the whole story without much to add.There aren't many plot twits to make you fall out your seat.(The last chapter had a plot twist but at the end of the day it seemed very underwhelming). The story mainly revolves around thegore and that's pretty much it. To sum it up. If you see a new girl in a chapter chances are she is most probably gonna die and that is what this manga mainly revolves around. Art 7/10 The art is the only redeeming fact about this manga.Not at a masterpiece level but it goes very well in depicting the gruesomeness the author wanted to portray. Being drawn by an artist which has mainly focused on hentai the art truly does stand out and many a times has brought light to this otherwise dull manga. Character 2/10 This is the weakest link in this manga and the reason i don't like this at all. Some of the characters are just introduced as slaughter goats to depict how gruesomely the author would kill her. The main character and 1-2 others do have some stories to tell but in most cases you won't give a damn about the character and would just be waiting just as to how she is gonna die. Mid way through i didn't even try to remember who is who cuz she gonna die next chapter anyway. Enjoyment 2/10 The manga does start of well.And the early chapters do have a lot of promise.But that is totally destroyed as the manga moves on to the further chapters.Not to tell the ending was extremely rushed and made no sense whatsoever at times. Overall 2/10 To say as a whole this manga wont be a big plus in your list.Though if you love gore you could enjoy some parts as that is where this manga excels at.If you have all the time in the world, love gore and don't know what to read next give this a go.

This manga seemed really promising for about the first third or so, but then it went downhill fast. The ONLY consistently good aspect of this manga is the art. Character designs, environments, gore, and nudity are all well-represented artistically. Unfortunately, that is ultimately just another aspect of this manga's wasted potential. I thought this story might be pretty good at first, not mind-blowing elite-tier stuff, but solid and enjoyable. The exposition escalates things quickly, there's some twisted, fucked up scenes early on, our protagonists are fairly likable, the villain is a generic horror super-sadist. All that needed to be done from there was to keep thefocus on the characters and put together a coherent beginning, middle, and end for the story. Then you'd have a good, but not great manga (in the 6 t0 7/10 range). Unfortunately that doesn't happen. New characters I couldn't be bothered to care much about continually get introduced, the plot takes a turn involving pointless super-powers that often don't even come into play when the characters would need them, and confusing and seemingly completely unrelated plot-points are introduced as well. In short, the back half of this manga is a completely convoluted mess in terms of story and characters. I couldn't even tell what the hell was going on much of the time. Scores: Story 2/10 Art 8/10 Characters 4/10 Enjoyment 4/10 Overall 4/10 *Scores are based around 5/10 being considered "average" Ultimately, the only things keeping this manga's score out of the cellar for me are the very good art and the fact that it did show some promise in the beginning. Would not recommend though. Although you may get some enjoyment if you just want gore and twisted shit and don't care if you're able to tell what is going on.
