13-nin no Short Suspense & Horror · review

/10
Not a bad horror manga anthology, but absolutely nothing memorable here. Like any such work, the quality of the stories varies greatly as does the quality of the art. Most of them are gruesome, but in a teenager-kind of way. A lot of visually repulsive stuff like guts, decapitations, and such, but nothing existentially unsettling. This, coupled with the brevity of each story and the fact that they finish with a very predictable "shocking" ending, makes for a very underwhelming read. Having finished it a few weeks ago and not remembering almost any of the stories except maybe for the one with the book browsers,says it all about this.
