Great work, some creepy images and very nice artwork.
It's an awesome story! Great Potential!
wonderful first chapter, it manages to capture my attention and raise many questions about the story that keeps me invested. the art compliments the eerie vibe and looks wonderful on its own as well. if i could live a few tips i'd say that sometimes theres no need to tell what you are already showing (i.e 'im so on edge, my hands wont stop shaking' when the reader is already being shown shaking hands). as a manga, your story can utilize visual as well as textual elements, but having both mediums say something at the same time should be preserved for important beats instead of just random moments. other than that, the fact that on some bigger panels the art style is a little tiring on the eyes could be a little improvement. a very well-made and presented first chapter, i hope to see more!
Drawings so vivid they burn through the screen and become tactile. Expressions so full of emotion that they may as well be felt by the reader. You live through the panels as if it’s natural, can’t wait to experience the story myself, beyond the screen when it picks up
REALY liked the artwork on this story. It's as freaky as mysterious. The pacing is good, aswel as the characters. The dialogue feels alright, sometimes a bit unnatural but overal an amazing comic. I want to read more!
Very beautifully constructed story! I liked the pacing and th main character. And I really loved the artwork. A job well done!!
The artwork is gorgeous and incredibly atmospheric. I really enjoyed the pacing of the story, especially the beautiful splash pages that evoke such strong imagery and emotion. I’m genuinely curious to read more. Very talented work and worth every second of my reading time.
