Thank you to Netgalley and Yen Press for the eARC of Glitch Vol 1 by Shima Shinya! All opinions expressed are my own.

Really liked this story! It was an interesting concept and I enjoyed the artwork. I don’t know if it’s my copy or if it’ll be that way in the final printing, but after a few panels it became black and white and all the colors disappeared which was disappointing.

The time jumps were confusing and made the story feel disjointed, it could’ve been broken up with some panels to make the transitions more cohesive. I also wish we got to know more about the characters before jumping into the main plot with the glitches. 

I’m looking forward to continue the series and find out more about the glitches! Highly recommend for graphic novel/manga lovers especially if you enjoy the sci fi genre!
