This is the one-shot that eventually spawned the longer series of the same name. As far as I'm aware, the one-shot is identical to the first chapter of the official manga, but I may be mistaken; this review treats it as such, so I apologize for any confusion and will gladly revise this if anyone knows of a different chapter for this title.
