Dolls Fall review

This manga seemed really promising for about the first third or so, but then it went downhill fast. The ONLY consistently good aspect of this manga is the art. Character designs, environments, gore, and nudity are all well-represented artistically. Unfortunately, that is ultimately just another aspect of this manga's wasted potential.

I thought this story might be pretty good at first, not mind-blowing elite-tier stuff, but solid and enjoyable. The exposition escalates things quickly, there's some twisted, fucked up scenes early on, our protagonists are fairly likable, the villain is a generic horror super-sadist. All that needed to be done from there was to keep the focus on the characters and put together a coherent beginning, middle, and end for the story. Then you'd have a good, but not great manga (in the 6 t0 7/10 range).

Unfortunately that doesn't happen. New characters I couldn't be bothered to care much about continually get introduced, the plot takes a turn involving pointless super-powers that often don't even come into play when the characters would need them, and confusing and seemingly completely unrelated plot-points are introduced as well. In short, the back half of this manga is a completely convoluted mess in terms of story and characters. I couldn't even tell what the hell was going on much of the time.

Scores:
Story 2/10
Art 8/10
Characters 4/10
Enjoyment 4/10
Overall 4/10

*Scores are based around 5/10 being considered "average"

Ultimately, the only things keeping this manga's score out of the cellar for me are the very good art and the fact that it did show some promise in the beginning. Would not recommend though. Although you may get some enjoyment if you just want gore and twisted shit and don't care if you're able to tell what is going on.
