A short episodic manga about two girls in love... taken to the extreme. Given its length, it's not too surprising that there is little story to work off of, and thus, there is barely any character development.

The characters themselves are relatively bland, but are an interesting take on common animanga tropes. Their intense love which leads to comedic misunderstandings and end with fluttering-sweet moments of reconcile are enjoyable to see as an audience. The author cleverly utilizes common shoujo cliches and turns them around, and there is no drama whatsoever, allowing this work to remain lighthearted and easy-to-digest. One thing I really appreciate is that you can tell this is a pure work of yuri fiction, intended for wlw. The characters are never sexualized and the content remains PG-13. It is also very clear that Love Death. contains no scenes of fanservice which is clearly marketed towards the male gaze.

The female characters are all drawn very charmingly, and each are identifiable with different facial and body structures. Although the artwork is a bit sloppy at times and proportions aren't always perfect, it is very clear from their previous works that the artist is constantly striving to improve. I greatly appreciate their efforts.

Overall, Love Death. is a fantastic choice for a quick and easy read. I wouldn't recommend it for those who enjoy heavy, content-filled works. Those who are sensitive to blood and violence may also wish to avoid this particular work, as it contains minor instances of both. In addition, given that this is clearly a work of yuri fiction, marketed towards wlw, the contents may not be particularly enjoyable for certain audiences.


In short, a summary:

+ Short and easy read
+ Charming artstyle
+ Full of comedic and light-romantic moments
- Little to no character development
- Short length leaves for barely any real story
- Each chapter follows the same structure
