Editorial Review from KADOKAWA

From the very first pages, I was captivated by the cyberpunk world the creator had built.
The backgrounds are outstanding, and the consistently strong artwork creates a convincing sense of realism while still capturing the kind of wonder and excitement that sparks the reader’s imagination.

The protagonist is immediately charming and full of personality at the beginning, while the shadows they carry inside are gradually revealed in the latter half, making them even more compelling.

There are many striking compositions throughout the work, but the scenes of the protagonist racing through the crowded, chaotic cityscape were especially memorable. They seemed to symbolize both freedom and loneliness at once, while also laying the groundwork for the emotional catharsis of the ending.

This work made me feel the potential of a creator who could one day inspire genuine excitement and passion across the world.

Editorial Review from KADOKAWA

Above all, the whale transformed into a human was portrayed in an extremely charming way, and the expressions and gestures while eating the sandwich were especially adorable and heartwarming.
The protagonist was also depicted effectively through subtle details that naturally conveyed his personality, lifestyle, and emotional changes, making the characters themselves the greatest strength of the work.

On the other hand, compared to the strong presentation at the beginning, the latter half relied heavily on close-ups of the characters’ faces and at times felt somewhat repetitive.
We encourage you to experiment with more detailed backgrounds and a wider variety of expressions and compositions in order to create a more multidimensional presentation.
