Popular Reviews
The story is kind of dumb and boring. It's about some friends who plan to take a trip to a neighboring town to visit a haunted place, but everyone except the main character and a girl he's in love with can't go. So they'll be alone.
The characters are okay. The main character is a typical protagonist you've seen many times before. The girl is also pretty standard for a character. And that applies to every other character, except for two people, but I won't say who they are because it would spoil the surprise.
The only enjoyment I got was being able to add another series to my list.
I give this series a 4 because it's not terrible, but it's not great either. If you're looking for something good to read, you shouldn't choose this. But if you're just looking for something to read so you can add another series to your list, this is an okay oneshot.
Story - 7/10 and Enjoyment - 7/10
The story isn't exceptional, but it's certainly intriguing. Two classmates, Doujima Kenji and Takamine Karen, abandoned by their fellow clubmates, end up solving the village's past mysteries and inadvertently uncovering Kenji's heritage. What kept me turning the pages was my curiosity about the mystery—the ghost's unresolved fate. However, the ending could have been better; it felt somewhat lacking and rushed.
Art - 10/10
Mizuki Kawashita's art never disappoints. It's always a pleasure to follow her illustrations while reading.
Characters - 7/10
The characters are decent. They aren't particularly unique, but you'll find yourself enjoying them as the story progresses.
Overall - 7/10
I don't regret the time spent on this one-shot manga. It was good and entertaining, making for a pleasant short read.
