Shutterbox Volume 1: Orientation

Shutterbox review Art: Highly exaggerated an American attempted at manga style coming off as more cartoony and odd good for comedy manga but to bad this is a romance/ Fantasy B- Characters: Megan is a girl who has am messed up life blah blah blah she isn't unique there is nothing about her to make her likeable or otherwise she is just there as the MC but really why? The characters are hardly explained who's who and why Two characters meet and it seems they know each other but nothing made sense as to how the characters were dull and flat D- Story: Another “what?” story the premies is interesting a girl goes to a magical school in her sleep this should be amazing instead its a hot mess. This whole book is nothing but an explanation of what the world is and how it works but even that it fails at. The characters are blaned and the ONE interesting thing is jossed up. This story is to many questions mainly how do the two MC's know each other as well as the mystery for the one character. Bland characters and sloppy transition it was hard to tell what was happening in a dream, present time or a flashback things that could have been foreshadowing was lost in transition and it just was a big mess of “what did you just read?” The bad language while tolerable was unnecessary and came off as the author trying to be “cool” DCover: A hot good looking blue haired punk with a saint statue behind him this cover is fascinating and really draws you in very goth like and eye catching sadly the story inside doesn't fit this spooky awesome cover BRating: T for teen Company: Tokyopop (out of business) My rating : 2 of 5 This was annoying and the only good thing was the question of why he killed himself but sadly the lack of proper plot, storyline, characterization, character relationships etc make this a fail that I will just (and probably have) wiki for the answer
