Reception
Writing for PopCultureShock, Katherine Dacey stated: "In less capable hands, this material would be horribly dull or laughably familiar, yet Tokyo Calen and Yoshiken manage to produce a surprisingly tight, entertaining package with briskly paced stories and clean, unfussy layouts that strike a good balance between atmosphere and ick." IGN's A. E. Sparrow described the art as "very similar" to Takeshi Obata's Death Note and enjoyed the entertaining short stories, listing it as an Editors' Choice. Nadia Oxford of Mania Entertainment commented that "Dark Metro dives pretty heavily into the B-movie stuff" with "not much substance to be had", and compared it to Hell Girl.
