To start of with, Shuuen no Shiori is NOT for everyone. Not just because of the gore and "horror" images but because of how it's set up. You constantly have to reread the same events but in a different character's prospective. I personally didn't hate it, I easily read through it. (A few spoilers here and there. Nothing word breaking if you've read it or like novels or listened to the song series.)

Story: (8)
The story isn't anything "outstanding" the "day/week repeating" is pretty common. Another popular Vocaloid song series, Kagerou project as does this. The "horror" isn't particularly scary. I did get a few shivers (May be added I was in a silent dark room at 3 am.) The story does get a bit interesting when the Film club is added as well, although it may feel sudden to some people I think Suzumu tried their hardest to make it smoother. It defiantly could've came out worse. I never cried about the characters's situations while reading it. I only ever tear up while listening to the songs in the Re:Write Album for example. Songs like "repeat tragedy" and "Ending Melody" or "Schrodinger's cat" are terribly sad when you know the context of whats happening. I don't feel utterly depressed over the hopeless ending but that could also because of the songs like "Common Heroes" or "Bookmark of Demise" Which gives hope that maybe one day they'll escape the time loop.
I think the concept of their repeats always ending when all four died made in unique. And how who kills who or why may be different but it's always the same outcome. The thought they repeat the "game" over and over hoping they can win is so sad.


Characters: (9)
The characters are highly enjoyable, at least to me. The manga doesn't show of their complexity as well as the songs or novels do. The Occult kids and E-ki and E-nori are indefinably more interesting then the film club but I still liked both casts. This can be explained as though the occult kids are not sane at all. The most sane being B-ko. But even then all four of them have some loose ties which makes sense as they were written just for pure horror one shots by E-ki. For example (Which I'm pretty sure this isn't in the manga.) A-ya finds out about C-ta's cameras but says "Well we're childhood friends, right?" and doesn't find it weird so yeah... definitely got some lose strings.. But I still managed to feel bad for them even though there not the best of people. There pretty bad ass though, even though they constantly kill each other they still manage to forgive each other and try to beat the loop. Which does make the repeating much sadder than just insane people who kill and hate each other.

Art: (8)
The art can sometimes be stiff looking. And it has some chubbier character models then most anime models but it's of course not awful. The coloring is kinda bland but it gets the point crossed. The expressions are amazing though!! There was so many moments no words or very few were spoken but what they thought was so clear in their expressions.

Enjoyment:(8)
I indefinably think sns inst for everyone, I probably enjoyed it more then a 7.60ish it has right now. In fact it goes to my top favorite 5 manga. You could say I haven't read hundreds of manga only around 40ish but it still was very meaningful to me. It also could be my love for the first five songs when they came out in 2014 but it font think thatch it.I highly enjoyed sns, I love the connections the characters have with each other it seems realistic.. I truly felt sad about their time loops but them being aware of them and trying to stop it but still somehow repeating the same end is such a sad feeling.
I also like the fact it feels as though everyone isn't completely in the wrong.

Overall: 8
I hope it'll get physical English copies one day, I'd love to support Suzumu, 150P, and Yuki amino more than just buying their Albums.
