Yuri Manga: Mansoufutou no Gikami Meikyuu (万葬不踏の欺神迷宮)

July 27th, 2018

When the first chapter of Mansoufutou no Gikami Meikyuu (万葬不踏の欺神迷宮) by Takekawa Sin, ran in Comic Yuri Hime, (it continues serialized on Comic Yuri Hime on Pixiv) I thought it had potential. It wasn’t enough to my taste for me to follow it, but the basic idea wasn’t bad.

Sisters Chino and Arisa are exploring an old-tyme house, digging around the random photos and furniture and guns laying around when a being shows up, kills Arisa, and gives Chino an ultimatum. She can prolong Arisa’s life by fighting monsters and harvesting their “cores” which she can use to keep Arisa’s alive.  Sure, why not.

I picked up Volume 1, having already formed an opinion about the story, but I learned upon reading it, that the actual point of the story was not so much a magical action-adventure with a Yuricest romance – although, that was indubitably what we had here – but actually a magical action-adventure with a Yuricest romance which allowed characters to merge create new forms, so that dress-up is justified. Also, why not.

So, while this volume was still not for me, it’s obvious it will be for someone and that someone will undoubtedly enjoy Chino merging with her half-animal/half-human and all-human friends to kill beasties in order to kiss her sister lovingly and prolong her life in this labyrinth of deceit.

Ratings: 

Art  – 7 The art’s not bad, the costuming is not…great
Story – 7
Characters – Honestly, other than the incest, they aren’t terrible
Service – 4 Mostly the incest
Yuri – 7 Same as above, but some other interest in Chino by her companions

Overall – 7

If fighting magical creature in unrealistic (and uncomfortable-looking) costumes for the reward of sisterly love appeals, then I think you might honestly like this. I’ve certainly read worse.

    Hello! Do I understand correctly that this work is rather surreal, or even phantasmagoric?
