---- SPOILER FREE REVIEW---
This is my first ever review and I think it was important to do it with this manga.

The manga starts pretty interesting with a lot of mistery and mindfucks that slowly start to make sense as the story goes on, being a short manga (47 chapters) makes the main story short. And here is where the "problems" begin. I'm not saying that is something bad, but the story changes a lot and it takes a big turn on the final parts of the manga, also, there is a HUGE drop in the drawing quality after 60% of the story the same happens ... with the plot, it seems like the author didn't want to try anymore with the manga or he was sick or something, and it is really sad .
I think is definetely an ok manga for a fast read but it has some serious plot holes and the story pacing it turns weird. Despite that, I expected the manga to end HORRIBLY when I was with a few chapters left because of how the story turned and the quality drop in general, but I actually liked the ending although most people can find it lackluster.

PROS:
-The first chapters are REALLY interesting.
-The story is actually interesting and good for the most part.
-The art of the manga is great on the first half.

CONS:
-The BIG drop on the drawing quality after 60% of the manga (Just compare chapter 1-6 to chapter 38 or beyond). It is really infuriating.
-The plot holes even if they are not massive is still a problem.
-How the story and characters unfolds, there are a few chapters where the story turns a little "awful" and some characters are upsetting and disappointing.

Just Wow. I just dove blindly into this manga and I have no idea what to think now.

Story starts off with a world is being observed by someone or something(aliens). All we know is that the world the characters are living in, is somewhat similar to japan, but isn't japan at all. They have to figure out how to get out of this world. If they're caught, they'll be turned into puppets, they won't know to to trust or to turn to.

Thoughts:
I wasn't expecting that ending at all, I was mind blown with everything that happened. I thought that this was a nice ... concept of who is watching and what is above, watching us.

Rengoku no toshi or City of imprisoned love is a mystery thriller by a new author called Tawara kyouhei . The story had such a solid start i thought it was gonna be some yaksuko no neverland's first arc level of quality , but sadly like neverland it was pretty disappointing . In the middle of the story i think that the author lost his touch and the plot became so confusing a lot of readers complained me included , also the artwork dropped in quality a little bit . The characters weren't impressive and they are easily the worst part of ... this manga . Surprisingly the ending was quite solid , and we got answers about the majority of the questions we had but it was a little bit underwhelming . To conclude rengoku no toshi is a short mystery manga with 47 chapters , even though it had a lot of problems , it was solid knowing it is the first published work of the author 6/10
