Murder Incarnation review

Murder incarnation is a very short episodic manga, so i'll try to keep things as vague as possible to avoid spoilers.

Story+Characters-
Murder Incarnation tells 4 different stories over the course of its 10 chapters. They all revolve around the goal of bringing someone dead back to life through the killing of 3 people.Each story has a different twist and i thoroughly enjoyed all of them, the last one being the highlight for me.

There is only one constant character throughout this manga, Mikuni Maya. The mysterious girl with twin tails who has an interest in corpses and offers to bring the dead back to life in exchange for 3 murders.The other characters of a story will only be around for 2-3 chapters, but they all bring something new to the table. Some characters make you want them to succeed in the killings and others don't.

Art-
The art has a strange style to it. It seems as though the artist has created 3D models and then altered them digitally to look black and white.I don't know the exact term for this style, but it added greatly to the manga's tone for me, as everything looked very "otherworldly".

Final thoughts-
I stumbled upon this manga whilst browsing Crunchyroll's manga section and i was a lot more than just pleasantly surprised by it. The only negative for me was that we didn't really learn anything about Maya. Why does she do this? Where does she come from? One chapter from her perspective would have been perfect,as this just held it back from that perfect 10 for me.

If your looking for something short to read in one go that has interesting stories with twists and turns give this one ago, it might surprise you.
