Host is down
Well, it managed to strongly hold my attention all the way through. When u read this kind of thing it’s not about happy feels or liking what happens (you want that read a different genre). It’s more about how much the story draws you in (either positively or negatively), how much the story affects you and how much the story sticks in your mind after reading (I tend to think if you don’t remember the story in a week, it mustn't have been very good). Though tragic and a little traumatising this one shot managed to meet all three of the categories above.
The Collection (KAGO Shintaro)
Very disturbing scenes, but that’s what a horror should be I guess. Plus it makes me want to trick my friends into reading it so I can see the surprised and disturbed faces they pull, which is another sign that a horror is good. I’m trying to rate manga on its quality of meeting its genre, but its sometimes hard with the really creepy ones.
Abstraction
Intriguing concept, though it takes a few pages to get (then you have to go back and start at the beginning again) and a very imaginative and somewhat ingenious concept. It would have probably taken an extremely long time to work out and put together this art work. But the art/concepts are, at times, a little off putting. The Manga only has a VERY loose and short storyline, giving a heavy focus on the art - it’s basically one large piece of art.
