Preliminary Spoiler

Intense alongside childsplay, it is an okay type of Manga. Story is short and covers the plots within the major characters circumstances. Interlinking between initial of the plot and last final chapter was something downgrading, couldn't justify much more of term GOTH. Mangaka could have added few more criminal activity surrounding the campus and ast last link it with Morino's story. The boy character apart from Itsuki isn't well defined, neither his motives or characteristics. Pretty disappointment in that part.

Goth is a short read with a very interesting initial premise, dark ambience, and nice art. The first chapter had me hooked, and I was excited to see what would come next - but, by the end of the five chapters, it manages to fall flat extremely fast.
There were several plot points and conclusions that felt too contrived, or too conveniently placed for the sake of adding a twist or surprising the reader.

Art - Goth's art is simple but pleasing to look at. I quite enjoyed it and to me it's what carried the manga.

As for story, the premise seemed to be very strong right up until it was revealed their homeroom teacher was the hand killer. After that point the story well down a whole of cliché tropes and edginess, shit was corny. It's very unfortunate that this one didn't turn out to be good and a great teller was just some of the dialogue between characters, just very still and incohesive. character motivations were incredibly lacking as well. Just not very well written. Sucks.
