Imagine if Love, Death & Robots was called Love, Death & Robots AND cigarettes.
Similar too the aforementioned series the manga varies in quality with each chapter. Some chapters; such as the first chapter are beautifully written and drawn to express specific emotions rarely seen in manga.

This manga is neither overrated nor underrated, a good read for when you're tired of the basic shounen stuff and just need a smoke break.

I think it's impossible every single one-shot to be 10/10 for everyone, because of the vast variety, but most of them were very enjoyable reads.
The story in some were actually amazing, considering the short amount of space the mangakas had, but others were too straight-up and not that creative. As for the arts, I can say that more of the mangas had their stylistic approach influenced by the mangakas, which is expected. Even so, ... |
