Fun shin honkaku manga murder mystery. I was pleasantly surprised that the mystery and plot were different from the episode of the recent live action adaptation but I could have done without the graduitous sexualisation of the murder victims.

one of the best things about this was the mini crossword you had to do to discover an important clue about the identity of the lead suspect. i’m sold!

murder most foul on a reality tv show with an axe. dead-axe. get it?? no? ok. this was pretty enjoyable and i like how each volume so far, takes place in a secluded place with a cast of suspects. makes it more cozy (even with the really dark elements) and easier to focus on the interwoven aspects of the mystery.
However, i gave this one 3 stars because even though the story was touching and sad, i’m noticing a pattern in who the killer is for each volume so far and if that continues this won’t be unpredictable anymore. so hopefully that pattern changes so i can go on reading these. fingers crossed and action.

this was the first comic i've read from volume one back then in junior high school. hajime kindaichi is one of my favorite detectives. he's smart, funny, and silly.
