Dokusai Grimoire

Was looking forward to a neat, short fantasy story but was unfortunately disappointed by the mediocre story and art.

The art is nothing special and can even seem wonky at times. Action scenes don't seem very dynamic and the character design is low par.
A lot of classic fairytale characters from the Brothers Grimm are depicted as bishonen that don't have a lot to do with the original characters anymore.

The story was obviously cut short, has more of an open ending and introduces new characters up to the last second.

I wouldn't recommend this if you're looking for a short fantasy with a good story and characters that leave you wanting more. This was more of a forgettable manga I had to fight my way through.

I would recommend this to anyone looking for a short fantasy series to waste a little time on. The art is good throughout and it’s easy to get caught up in the story for the hour or so that it takes to finish the series. The plot is pretty predictable and the characters are mostly one note, but despite that it’s a fun read.
Just to give everyone a fair warning, I found the ending unsatisfying. If you’re just in it for the ride it likely won't bother you, but if you come to be invested in the characters (rookie mistake when reading short series T^T) you'll probably find it to feel a little inconclusive. I don’t want to put anyone of reading it, I still enjoyed the series a lot. I just think that the ending could have been better ¯_(ツ)_/¯
