Reviews

Peephole aka Ana Satsujin. The name and first chapter let you believe this is some dirty ecchi / semi-hentai manga. I found the masturbation scene at the start not fitting with the rest of the story. It is however still quite dirty, but more because of the many many ...many...murders which take place in this story.

Reviews

I loved this manga so much, which is why I was so excited about an anime version of it. I cannot even express how disappointing this was. It's all titilation without any of the humanity or character depth that makes Nozoki Ana such a great read.
