At first I bought it just for the synopsis, and I thought it was just a simple story that didn't have much to say, and that 5 volumes are quick.

It became my favorite...

The romance and dark fantasy are evenly distributed, and knowing that everything connects is amazing, and the storytelling is the best I've seen to date!

The relationship between present and past is also portrayed very interestingly, and the author invites his readers to reread the series to discover all the details.

My only real regret is how the series was cut short when it was planned to run on a longer run. author. In the ... afterword it shows how much the story could have been developed, so it's a shame. The last few chapters feel rushed and aren't as enjoyable as the previous ones. However, I appreciate the author's effort to wrap it all up, not leaving too many question marks or a feeling of unfinished.
In this era of isekai and fan-service dominance, it's very rare to find a manga with so much potential to be a great shounen classic. and retained the same energy that captures readers in its opening chapters.

When you see that the story really began there! THE AUTHOR WAS OBLIGATED TO FINALIZE EVERYTHING IN 4 PAGES!!!

In short, Marry Grave is a great shounen, a wonderful play, and I can only hope that it is successful enough that the author can write his next series for as long as he wants. I have high hopes for what he can write the sequel he promises in the afterword.

Marry Grave was a great story cut short and it pains me how underrated this manga is. With each turn the author builds more character, heart warming moments and most importantly a world which is supernatural but believable.

Story: 9
I gave the story a 9 because of it's unique take on the adventure genre and ability to create a memorable cast. Marry grave focuses on the bonds which Sawyer creates and also fleshes out his backstory throughout the chapters. This fragmented growth of his character compliments the main goal of the story where he collects ingredients to resurrect his wife.

His wife is a character ... that is ever-present in this story and holds a monumental impact on the immersion of the story all whilst being deceased. This helps us root for the protagonist, sweeping us onto his arduous but satisfying journey.

Art: 8
The art is not bad, but also isn't amazing. This leaves the artwork as an above average looking manga with a refreshing art style.

Character: 10
The character's are all lovable and each possess a personality and backstory, granting Marry Grave a memorable cast.

Enjoyment and overall rating: 10 :) and 9
The story was very enjoyable and overall one of my favorites albeit being very brief due to it being cancelled. I highly recommend this story!

TL:DR - a good story cut down before it really started

I can't recommend this unfortunately because it was cancelled long before it got to it's actual end.

The characters are endearing, the main character is likeable even if he is a bit of a tropey shounen protaganist. The side characters are endearing and they have backstory to be explored.

The fantasy world is interesting. A setting where humanity has essentially been defeated and monsters taking over is not something I've seen before.

The story moves forward, picking up new recurring characters and properly introduces some real antagonists along with an intriguing mystery.

And right when it really picks up, ... it rushes through the story that was supposed to happen it four pages, and it ends. Yup, it's another good manga cancelled. It wasn't amazing at the start but it was picking up steam and I felt it was going to get better but guess we'll never know.

There isn't really a satisfying ending and the journey was killed before it ever started so I don't recommend reading this.
