Eh, it's ok you can definitely tell it's a pilot of the serialized manga. Too short, and seems like it comes in part of the way during the "journey", yes i use the quotes way too much.

~SPOILERS~

Not really much just Robin exercising a girls dead fiance which is actually a doll the will become an Akuma and lead/help to destroy the world. 49 pages of one story line. The end. Only read if you are a 100% for all manga/D.Gray-Man.

Now short manga reviews are also too short to be allowed so here we go again. OMFG these reviews just say it's too short and not ... what qualifies what is the proper length.

~note: spoilers ahead, may be spoilers for d.gray-man but I have tried to avoid it~

I'll start off by saying, if you aren't a fan/haven't read the later series (D.Gray-man) you probably won't find this that interesting

story:6
Reading it you can really tell it was Hoshino's first go at creating the base for D.Gray-man. As its a one-shot there isn't really any context for whats going on, and information given is sort of just tossed in there very quickly and then thrown aside. I wont bother giving a summary since the one provided is sufficient enough. The plots fine and enjoyable, pacing is god awful

Art:8
I'm probably ... biased since I'm a big fan of D.Gray-man, and the art is reminiscent to the earlier parts of the manga (as Hoshino's art has tremendously improved) It's simple, but still filled with detail, and it gets the point across. No complaints :D

Characters:6
Nothing to write home about, since it's just a one-shot there isn't much fleshing out of characters, but its really interesting to see which characters were used to create ones in D.Gray-man!
Robin ~later to be turned into Allen~ is our, not cursed but still has a little special something which I'll leave you to find out, protagonist with a anti-akuma arm. And basically in all aspects is just french Allen (besides the fact she's a girl of course) but oh lord that eye, instead or the eye we are used to we are gifted a somewhat disgusting, yet very cool looking, complete split of the face, FUN! hehehe... yeah I'm happy that got changed.
Rinali ~later to become the rinali we know today~ not much to say, she just wanted to turn her dead fiance into an akuma
Millennium earl ~ gonna be honest, despite reading this around 20 minutes ago, I don't remember anything about him ._.

enjoyment:7
it was a quick and fun read, its only one chapter so you might as well read it :)
