Delivering a heartfelt (if a bit cliché) story in only 34 pages, Kataude no Amy is a quick read worth the read.

The story focuses on a living doll named Amy and her life with her father. The story is told in first-person from her perspective, so he received the vast majority of the character development, though several side characters received minor attention. I had hoped for a more detailed depiction of one certain character that appears near the end of the title, but given its short length, this can mostly be forgiven.

The art was cute and fairly standard, with the highlight being Amy's expressions. Overall, ... I enjoyed this for concisely delivering its story and would recommend to fans of short and sweet one-shots.

Kataude no Amy is Akagi Shun's second release, with their first publically available project being Lyra to Mayonaka 3-ji no Daibouken that features a really simple yet cute and wholesome way of storytelling, and in which we can clearly see that way of writing being implemented into both of these oneshot, and while not being as good as the first one in my opinion, Kataude no Amy is still a nice and short read with wholesome and cute moments here and there, and it's a really emotional ride into the acceptance of self.

The story itself is a really emotional ride, with each page flip being ... another experience that makes the readers fall deeply in love with the way the author executes the writing. This story touch into the acceptance of self and the familial love that transcends everything without having a complex storyline and a really classic way of constructing conflicts. The coloured is legit the perfect exmaple of how to paint a beautiful ending to the story.

This oneshot is similar to their debut project, Lyra to Mayonaka 3-ji no Daibouken, with the narrative beinng pretty similar and it's art style is also incredibly simple too. If you want a story that is short, nice, wholesome and deeply personal with interesting characters and a meaningful message being embedded into it, give this a try. I think this oneshot is a 75/100. Thank you!
