I started reading this one some years ago. I read about 10 chapters then I put on hold as it was a good marathon material and it was still publishing, and everyone knows the pain of waiting for the next week chapter in a thriller manga, also chapters were about 6-10 pages so those who read it week by week ended up giving a low score....probably dropping it. I was searching for a manga to read on my on-hold list... some days ago and found it with "finished" status, so I gave it a chance and didn't regret it.The story is thrilling as it takes place in a strange realm and there's always something new to discover about its mechanism every chapter. I was reading about 10-20 chapters/break time. also, there's plenty of twists in the plot.The art is good and clean.The characters vary.. irrational, logical, good, evil and unpredictable ones...So there's always a character to root for even if you didn't like the mc.Really enjoyable series, you should give it a try.

The fact that that's the first thought I had (it's finally finished!) is not a great sign for this manga. I went in to this series, excited for something new and interesting. And the premise is very intriguing. The mask system is neat and the sky-rise setting is certainly something I haven't ever seen before. However... the concept is not enough to save the execution. I was sourly disappointed by this manga. The horror element died off very quickly after starting - probably within the first volume or two honestly. There feels like there's nothing at stake and you're... taught early on to not grow attached to these one dimensional characters. The only element I even cared about by the end was Nise, to be truthful. The world-building is insane and baseless and the system is faulty to a crazy level. There is too much happening at the same time and the manga feels like it holds no real meaning or weight. Which would be fine, if it were a slice of life series. All in all, Tenkuu Shinpan takes itself a little too seriously. I would not recommend it unless you're alright with scattered content and boring, barely expressive characters.

Nice0 Love it0 Funny0 Confusing0 Informative0 Well-written0 Creative0Show all  Aug 18, 2022 To be honest, I only read this because I thought Sniper Mask was attractive (and he is LOL the manga does not disappoint on that). I have mixed feelings about this manga. It's very gory and violent from the very first chapter, with people committing suicide by jumping off high-rises and exploding on impact. However, the shock factor gets old after the 10th person dies in the very exact way by like chapter 7. However, the chapters are short and easy to read, so I kept reading.I think the story is actually interesting from chapters 1 to 150. The world-building is cool, the characters are... interesting, and the concept of masked people programmed to kill people by making them commit suicide is novel. The main character Yuri and her best friend Nise have a really natural and well-developed relationship, and it's cool to see two strong female leads. Best of all, Sniper Mask has some really cool scenes (<3). When I read manga, I seem to be possessed by some kind of speed-reading manga ghost and I obsessively read until I finish the manga (which ranges from a few hours to a few days). Although I kept up the same pace I do with most mangas, by chapter 150, I felt this urge to drop it. It wasn't really fun to read anymore. Once they defeat the Big Bad, there's still about 70 chapters to go making me wonder how the mangaka was going to conclude it well. He doesn't. The previously set rules of the world just go out the window, and it feels like the mangaka was just adding random stuff whenever he liked. The main character suddenly becomes super OP and fights "God," people start developing random powers, and the concept of the masks just doesn't make sense anymore. There were so many moments where I had to stop reading and say "There is no way this is really happening right now..." I dropped it for about two weeks but came back because I felt the strong urge to find out what happened, and honestly I wish I just stopped reading around chapter 150. They end up defeating the Bigger Bad with their new random OP powers and nothing gets resolved. No overarching questions end up getting answered, they willingly decide to in the same world they were trying to escape from for the past 230 chapters, and that's it. That's how it ends. It's unsatisfying and really disappointing to read, but I don't want to rate it any lower because it really is fun and interesting and thrilling to read for a large portion of the manga. It's just the rushed conclusion that ruins the whole manga. I don't think that I'd recommend it to any of my friends, but maybe I'd tell them to stop once they defeat Big Bad and not continue onwards for their sanity.
