As of now, there's only one review for this manga. When I first found this, that review almost dissuaded me from reading; honestly, I was scared of what I was about to read. It took me a couple of months before I could actually sit down and read the whole thing, so I will leave you my general impression in order to help people with doubts like me decide whether to read it or not.

To keep it spoiler free, I'll just say that the manga is a lot more "vanilla" compared to the actual crime which you can read about on wikipedia, so unless you're ... very sensitive there's really not a high chance of you puking over this. Having said this, the thing is that it actually sickened me, because it remembered me that in this worlsy there are people far more cruel and disgusting than those depicted on this story.

Story: 7 -> Well written, sometimes one would question the choices made by the characters, but human beings behave different under pressure.

Art: 6 -> Not gore of that's what you wanna know, about the same amount of blood you would see on a "delinquent high schooler brawl", aside from that is pretty much average.

Characters: 8 -> Not much to say, kind of generic but I like to see it as a way to say that these things happen on your everyday neighborhood, no need for a supervillain or damaged antagonist, just normal people.

Enjoyment: 7 -> As I said before, this experience was not saddening than it was exciting, so 7 is just a whim. It deserves it.

Overall: 7 -> Good read, not great though. I can't really put into words who should or shouldn't read this manga, but it is definitely worth a shot.

Thanks for reading.

The animation in this short film is really magnificent, the music while subtle is quite enjoyable however the sotry is very poor; with a superfitial overview of the characters it tells the story of a woman who is able to connect again with her stranged father. I believe it is totally woth to watch it just for the art but don't expect much from the story.

Story:
I've seen a lot of people criticize this anime because of it "boring plot" which is a common mistake due to the anime slow start, the first 20 episodes or so are like an introduction of the characters, but from then on it develops at a good rhythm with an original plot filled with chaarming characters.

Art:
This anime is 200+ episodes so the quality of the art starts average but becomes better as the story progress, the last arcs of the anime reveal the dedication of the artists behind every scene.

Sound:
Just great, there are like 8 openings/endings and you can enjoy them all.

Character:
Unlike other ... action anime the main character is not a hot-blooded dumb guy who will enter running without a plan on obviously dangerous situations, Tsuna is an awkward and shy student who would do anything for the sake of his famiy/friends.
The other characters show some really intense personalities thar are very charming as well as intimidating.
