Doubt review

To trust someone you have to be close with and you must know a sufficient amount about this person. Doubt plays with the concept of trust and lies to an almost disturbing and unbelievable degree. Doubt is prime for binge reading due to its fast paced storyline which is brimming with twists and turns.

Doubt is a 4 volume psychological horror type of manga. It follows 6 young people as they participate in a deadly version of the popular cellular game called rabbit doubt. The goal of this game is to find the wolf in disguise among a pack of rabbits. Not knowing who to trust, the 6 youths of Doubt have to figure out who is the wolf in their pack.

One of my favorite parts about this manga is the story elements. The mystery that is central to the entire plot is very well done. I was always waiting for what was going to happen next and the plot twists here were excellent. I also thought the psychological aspects were well explored. Seeing how sick and twisted some of the characters were was quite astonishing. The only problem with the story is that the concept isn't that unique but the idea of rabbit doubt is very good and intriguing.

I finished Doubt over the span of a single day. That might not be impressive but for someone like me who reads quite slowly, I got through this manga extremely fast due to both shortness and very good suspense.

The characters in doubt is where the manga kind of falters a bit. The characters were fine and they had some interesting qualities and backstories. However throughout the entire story I just felt that they were plot devices. I felt that they were just there for the sake of having someone to participate in the events of the story. This is especially apparent in the main character who gets virtually no back story at all and he hardly captures my interest.

Themes of lying and trust are very well explored and some of the situations the characters are put in seem believeable. And how these characters trust eachother are also really put to the test.

The art was good. I didn't have many problems with it aside from sometimes the scene that was taking place is unclear. The rabbit masks were very detailed and downright disturbing which is a good thing in a manga like this one.

A big flaw with this manga is sometimes there were completely unbelievable situations. I'm not going to spoil anything but some plot elements were a complete stretch to be able to believe.

In conclusion doubt is a highly enjoyable and highly addictive manga that is definitely worth a read. The plot is interesting and the amount of plot twists and suspense is ideal for fans of mystery and psychological horror.
