Reception
Chris Beveridge from The Fandom Post praised the art, while noted that the plot "feels like only a taste of what [the plot] could have been". Unlike Beveridge, Koiwai from Manga News praised the art and the story, while also recommending the series to fans of the author's next work, Pandora Hearts. Christel Scheja from Splash Comics shared similar opinions to Beveridge, stating that "Crimson Shell is one of those titles that you can read if you do not know many other mystery titles".
