First of all, a warning to readers -- gore. It's graphic, but if you can look past that, then you might enjoy this one-shot more. The story is well-done especially for a one-shot because it takes the "broken record" idea (the idea of reliving the same event over and over) in a new way. The art is pretty good for this type of manga; it did portray the mood of the scenes effectively in a restricted setting though not as powerful as I would have liked. The characters themselves seem realistic given their social standings. I feel that there was a lot of change, howeversubtle, in their reactions to the burglars but it showed that they had made up their minds to perform their actions. The relationship between Jean (the main character) and one of his servants could have been touched on some more to give it more of an impact but for now, it is satisfying. It was also predictable, at least for me, to know the person behind the murders once that character was introduced. Overall, I did enjoy the one-shot.
