The dialogue between Count Dracula resurrected as a little girl and the servant Igor was very amusing! It wasn’t just the enjoyment of the work as a comedy that was great, but the tension and impact of the well-drawn fight scenes were outstanding as well and made it a very worthwhile read. However, if the artist wants it to appeal as an action manga and not just as a comedy, then it would have been better if it was more convincing that Count Dracula, who turned into a powerless little girl, was able to defeat the werewolf Talbot.

A fight against dinosaurs in a ruined earth of the near feature! ...It’s simple, but it has a strong story that made it really enjoyable to read. The ideas for the ways to defeat large numbers of “fast feet” were great. An unfortunate point is that I felt like Coco’s background is weak. Coco’s character is bright and easy to like, but I think that she would get more support if you told the reader things like why she is looking for her family and what she wants to do once she finds them so that the purpose of her journey becomes clear.

This is an excellent work that was carefully drawn with universal themes such as the partnerships between humans and robots, friendship, and love. The character’s expressions are good and were drawn with great emotion. The second half of the work where the thoughts and feelings of the robots, who have the memories of the main character and heroine inside of them, are shared had an element of surprise to it. If the drawing skills were polished a bit more then there would be nothing else to say.

There is no real introduction of the characters at the beginning of the story and then all of a sudden a battle with a monster starts so I didn’t really understand it. A work where the character’s emotions and their progression is hard to understand is clearly at a disadvantage so the creator should be more conscious of the reader in the next work (especially at the beginning). Be that as it may, from the middle of the work onwards, the battle of special powers in the air with the main characters Shan Ming and Carmont has a sense of speed and floating, and although there are some things like the reason for the battle that are hard to understand, it was done by the creator with a great understanding of battle scenes. The character designs are charming and really excellent.

The work is impressive and drawn with great skill. As a matter of fact, the battle scene where the main character Kai whose body was modified as a “Bio Weapon” first fights with a strange creature that seems like a demon was really intense and very spectacular. Honestly, the creature’s design is terribly eerie and it makes you feel the creator’s talent as an artist. The creature is amazing, but the character designs of the major characters such as the main character and his friend, Ryū, are somewhat similar and ordinary. I think the differences between the characters should be made clearer. The final part that draws you in with the appearance of the mysterious organization isn’t bad. I definitely want to read more! This is an excellent work that makes you want to know what the whole story is.

The story revolves around the heroine who is fascinated with an accessory and I think the skill with which her emotions were drawn is fantastic. There are a lot of variations in the way that the expressions were drawn and I felt that the creator has a lot of knowledge and experience. As for the illustrations, I think that they were drawn with incredible skill. On the other hand, it was a bit difficult to understand that the main character turned into a different person in the middle of the story. I think that when the main character met the mermaid, he possessed someone from the past or was changed into a different person due to her power when he was in the ocean. That’s how I read it, but I think it maybe it would have been a good idea to show he was surprised inside that he became a different person and even make it so that you can really tell it’s a different person with the character design. It’s difficult to understand what kind of viewpoint I should read the episode that happened three years prior from. I think that if you make that part easier to understand, then the drama of the manga would have been conveyed better. I’d really like to you do your best when you draw your next work as well.
