There are some moments that we are bored to a point that we do something that isn’t our own accord. Well I approve this fact.

After I watched a series of heart warming slice of life shows, it came to a point that I missed my old Higurashi days that time. I searched some bits of gore content in the net, but there were no new stuff to appeal me.
Then I went random clicking some manga titles and fell upon this manga. Franken Fran, at first I was thinking of modern revival version of Mary Wollstonecraft Shelly’s, Frankenstein O_o? but that wasn’t the reason that made read the series, I noticed interesting genre. Gore and Comedy? Wow! It might be a refreshing material since the last time I remembered the Musical Horror, Comedy show titled “Little Shop of Horrors”.

Well the manga is still ongoing and I’ll be savoring more of this unique story, which I hope you too can appreciate it.

thanks to Baka-updates for my time consuming random pick.
