Not too bad! The idea of a school for (up and coming) mad scientists and the classes they take is interesting. For example, the school prides itself on some cross-species transplantations/Frankenstein experiments and killer robots.

I found the MC too stupidly naive, and it's not in an endearing way. How many times does it take for her to learn this gothic, eldritch school is immune to her tears and whining!?! Still, she's nine, so I get it.

I thought the ending was nice and subverted a few things.

SN: The artwork on the cover and the artwork inside is drastically different (

This was an entertaining little volume. Lucy Snow, a nine-year old girl ends up, by pure accident, in a school that trains mad scientists. That right there is a great premise. And she soon finds that if she does not keep up her grades every week, she will be sent to detention. And no kid has ever come back from detention. The art in this manga is pretty good, and there is a strong steampunk element that fans of that subgenre will enjoy. Also, this is a manga for all ages. I enjoyed it for the story, but much more so for the art. The look of the characters was very good. So, will Lucy rise up to the occasion? I won't spoil it other than to say she will find that she can be a quick learner. Kids who like the idea of a little gross, monsters and robots, so on will certainly enjoy this. I will definitely seek out the next volume. (

PERFECTION! Such a new and refreshing story! The writing and art also prove that not just the Japanese know how to create grea manga! I reccomend this for any manga reader and especially for those out there with a love for Steampunk/Clockpunk. (
