The Cigarette Anthology is a collection of one shot mangas with very wild variety of genres, going from straight up action, sci-fi, comedy, a few romances, and dramas. I think it's impossible every single one-shot to be 10/10 for everyone, because of the vast variety, but most of them were very enjoyable reads.

The story in some were actually amazing, considering the short amount of space the mangakas had, but others were too straight-up and not that creative.

As for the arts, I can say that more of the mangas had their stylistic approach influenced by the mangakas, which is expected. Even so, ... I was happily surprised by some details, here and there.

In this kind of production, you can't establish characters with great depth, but you can atleast hint for their complexity. Especially in the second one-shot story, the characters were very well established and the story was bittersweet and compelling.

Overally I think this collection is one of the better collaborations of this type, since some of the stories are insigthful, others hilarious, or just straight up cool.
