Mod note: This review was originally posted for "Blind Doll" and has subsequently merged into "Merry Bad End".

It's a one-shot, there's not enough time to put depth into the characters so with that said, the story is enjoyable. It's labeled "shounen" but I think girls are a more suited audience (not to turn boys away though). The art is beautiful, and there's a strong female character. I think the better one-shots are those that make you think about life a little differently, or if there's a slight twist to the story. In any case, this manga was a nice read.
