The plot progresses quickly and doesn’t leave anything behind and it’s at this point that the story itself starts to take a bit of a sinister turn that’s sure to keep readers glued until the last page.
Banania’s art is clean and she does a great job of showcasing the overall innocence through Mimori while providing a contrasting look with a few monsters in some pages.
Mahou No Uso #1 is a well done comic that prioritizes a nice art style and a simple plot flow and then once that’s clear, out comes a twist that gives the story an interesting change-up that’s sure to make readers stick around for the next issue.
