City In The Sea
One-Shot
City In The Sea
Description: It’s a textless oneshot (full color) about a girl and her life out on a flooded city.
Genre: Drama, mature, psychological
Author: Sahara Masaki
Artist: Sahara Masaki
This is a really weird one-shot. It’s really short, just 12 pages, has no text and every page is colored.
There’s not much of a plot. It just shows a little girl living on a flooded world. She seems to be a contracted assassin. And so, the manga just shows her tricking and killing a man, getting her payment and an ending moment where she remembers what it was like before everything got flooded.
The girl herself doesn’t make much sense to me as a believable character because she first kills a man in cold blood, showing no emotion, and then acts all childish when collecting the money and all sentimental remembering her times playing with her friends and family.
As for the art, it’s all done in a very sketch-like style. The only thing I actually liked were two backgrounds where you could see the city underwater.
So, there’s really nothing going on in this one-shot and I doubt I’m missing the "point", if there’s one. But, it’s so short that I really didn’t have time to get bored and not like it lol. Still, not something I would pay for, no matter how much.
- Personal Enjoyment: 2/5
