Goth (Manga) add (All reviews)
Aug 9, 2013
As already stated in the synopsis, Goth goes about two morbid students who are attracted to murders.

The first three chapters go about three murder cases they solve, or rather that Kamiyama Itsuki solves. The last two chapters are centered in the main characters, and especially in Morino Yoru's past.

It would have been much better if the author had given us hints on the main story involving the main characters in the first three chapters. That would have given more unity to the whole manga, the characters would have gained in depth, and there would have been more mystery, apart from the gore.

However, the manga is entertaining. The stories are really creepy. The characters are interesting, even when they lack development.

The art is ok: dark, good gore scenes.

The problem with this manga is that at some point the mangaka tries to trick us with a rather "cheap" art procedure. Unfortunately, I cannot go deep into this issue, because it would be rendered as a spoiler. I can only say that there are procedures to create suspense that are valid, and other procedures that are inadmissible.

I have the feeling that this manga had potential to be much better, but it is still interesting to read.
