Story:

Exact same story as every Corpse Party game, the series and manga - exactly what you expect is going to happen.

Art:

The art is decent but it is nothing in particular. The artist clearly has his own style that works well, it just happens to be just an average manga in terms of the style and such.

Character:

... Miyu Shinohara - A bubbly transgender-female who went to school with the main gang and has a crush on Satoshi (like everyone else) and ended up getting herself decapitated.
Principal - The man who cares more about the school than anyone else, he goes above and beyond to make sure the school is always in tip-top shape, unlike his head which got destroyed by Sachiko.
Teacher - He starts off as a lovely gentleman who truly cares deeply about his students, which is shown to be fake when he openly bullies his students and at one point made a move on Sachiko... let's just say I don't think he met a happy ending.
Yuika - The principal's granddaughter who likes playing with insects by poking them with sticks - it was shown to her first-hand that it was cruel when she happened to end up with said stick through her eye... don't mess with the bugs.

the series is rushed, the time the author gives you to feel for the circumstances of the situation is very little, in which they try to compliment it with grotesque dismemberment (not for the shy of heart). the author as well tries to keep an upbeat undertone, have yet to figure if this is to say "they're can still be a happy ending" or simply to drag you back into despair for the characters. the characters are sadly simple, and easy to tell the overall worth to the author (in terms of will they die or not) only surprising part can be how often they ... dodge death (i would say "to randomly die" but i've only read the trans version so far ch14). there is hardly any mystery or suspense (just leaves story ends hanging). the settings are great, generic but great, i just wish the execution was better, though i say this i am interested in how the author will end it all.

i felt uncomfortable while reading this manga; childporn is not an enjoyment at all.

I...I don't even know where to begin with how awful this manga was.
I guess I could start with how a lot of the deaths/general scenes of violence in this manga were very sexualized which was...rather disgusting considering a) the characters are underage, and b) some of the scenes of violence included sexual assault.
I guess I could also mention how there was the whole incest aspect which, correct me if I'm wrong, I don't think was in the canon storyline for the games, much less reciprocated in a bizzare and uncomfortable way.
I guess I could *also* talk about the transmisogyny in how Miyu constantly ... had up close shots of her genitals, was misgendered multiple times, was the first character to be killed off IIRC, and was referred to by a transmisogynistic slur at one point, which, all of this combined just felt extremely upsetting to read.
Overall, this manga was just a very uncomfortable experience and I would recommend anyone wanting to get into the Corpse Party series to just skip over this one entirely.
