Dead Word Puzzle · review
Wow, this is actually just awful. The "death game" genre of manga is becoming more and more oversaturated market. And this one is like the Great Value version of already bad product. It's one of the worst manga of this type, if not *the* worst. And before you ask, yes, it's worse than Ousama Game. The story is at best uninteresting. We know pretty much nothing about the characters and you're lucky if even their name is mentioned more than once. Does the manga provide the reader with any reason to care if any of the characters die or live? No, none at all. The characters feelas significant as bugs on the road feel to a truck driver. The protagonist is annoyingly edgy disgracefully cheap knock-off of Light Yagami - the type of dude who probably build his whole personality of getting the "INTP" result from online personality test and posts unintentional cringe on r/atheism. Other than the protagonist there's a yandere, and the rest of the characters are just blank state cannon fodders.
The art goes from bad to worse, and the gore is usually portrayed so clumsily it's effectively more hilarious than scary.
This one is definitely a waste of time, unless you'd like to entertain yourself with how horrendous it is.
