Today I will be reviewing another Tono & Lims ink! To Make a Long Story Short is a rich magenta.

This ink is a medium pink-purple, with medium shading and no sheen. Similar colors include Pilot Iroshizuku Yama Budo (which sheens gold) and PenBBS #521.

This ink was saturated with a smooth flow.

Overall: Overall I liked the color and saturation, but the color is close to Pilot Iroshizuku Yama Budo. I don’t think I will purchase a full sized bottle.
