Gothic humor filled with dramatic designs and quirky personalities, plus one awesome twist. This oneshot is a quick read, but it definitely had me smirking by the end of it.

Imagine if Cinderella wasn't as sweet or selfless as what we're used to seeing. It wouldn't be the first stab at creating a self-centered version of her, but this was done in such a way that bordered on parody. I loved it. She was an aggravating drama queen in a flowy gothic dress, and the prince... oh boy, the prince....

Without spoiling, all I can say is that it's worth the 5 minute read. The ending especially ... made this something to remember.

Now, was it something worthy of a 9 or 10? No, but it's fun, and in my opinion, a 6.5 - 7 would be a fair rating.

This is a really twisted manga. It’s definitely not like the Cinderella story that we grew up with. In fact, I consider it closer to a Grim Fairy Tale more-so then a children’s tale with an ending that can make your skin crawl. It did for me and that is really rare. I do have to give you a slight warning if you really do not like spiders, this may not be the story for you. Other then that, Cinderella was really annoying when she started sounding like a valley girl.

The artwork is that of a fairytale, very befitting, and yet the proportions ... are all wrong. Some characters are way to big compared to others to make them look at all realistic. Things are rather stiff and it’s got almost a supernatural ‘Halloween’ feel. It was a little like Tim Burton’s movies. There are a lot of angles in the art and characters are rather stretched out.

I liked the story and I do say you should see this because it’s interesting. I liked the take on it.

A dream never comes for free..This is a great story coming as a little change to the all so popular Cinderella..With some changed characters with a teeny cinderella that acts like a normal human and a prince that doesn't talk all so royalish ..
The story has a surprise that will make you jump out of your pants..I never though a one shot would be that great..
It's so recommended for anyone who wants a good plot with some unexpected events :D
