Warning: Spoilers ahead.
Story: 8/10
Museum is a really well done mystery series, kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time. No scene is wasted and are all important to the plot and story. There are no major flaws to the story, I just don't think its brilliant or particularly creative. There is no major twist or idea that brings the manga to the next level. It was thrilling, had some interesting moments, but that's about it.
Character: 7/10
Much like the story all the characters fit into the series nicely. The main focus being on our detective who doesn't bring enough attention
...
to his family. Hes a mildly interesting character, who has his flaws and strengths. However, we never really get to see any development in his character. Like I get that it's a 28 chapter series, but for some reason the ending suggests he commited suicide to go to heaven with his family or whatever. Maybe I misinterpreted this ending, but it doesn't make sense to me. I would've expected him to learned his mistakes and treated his family better, maybe got back together with his wife. But the ending given is weird and feels weak in relation to the detective's character. Another problem I have with the characters is the mass murderer/self-proclaimed artist. Not that there was anything wrong with him but I felt that his motives should have been explored more. What drives him to kill others for his own art? Or just an interesting backstory as to how he ended up like this. Felt like our main villain here really didn't get explained a whole lot despite being an important character, and potentially an interesting one too.
Art 7/10
its fine. The characters didn't stand out or appealed to me very much but the art itself is good.
Enjoyment 9/10
Fast paced, short, action packed, mystery. I read this series in one sitting and the mini stories were also fun to read. Very enjoyable manga.
Overall 8.2/10
For me, it's not perfect but because of the entertainment value I give it a solid 8.2/10.
