(Critique de la série)

Si on passe outre le fan service à grands coups de gros seins aux tétons qui pointent, gros plans sur les fesses et vêtements déchirés que chez les filles, l’histoire peut devenir prenante. Le bémol, c’est que les dessins sont souvent assez faibles, et font l’effet d’avoir été copié-collés régulièrement, notamment les visages des protagonistes, qui arborent globalement les mêmes expressions, avec les mêmes positions et les mêmes airs navrés perpétuels. La plupart des personnages féminins se confondent, avec la même coupe, le même visage, le même attrait pour la nudité – on reconnait vaguement chacun.e par leur degré de pruderie.

Dommage, parce qu’en passant outre ça, ou lors des tomes où l’accent était mis sur l’évolution de l’histoire plutôt que sur savoir si valait mieux être nue ou en maillot de bain, la série avait un bon potentiel. Même moi, qui habituellement suis du genre à fuir les œuvres goros, j’ai trouvé que le sujet était ici suffisamment bien amené pour que ça ne me choque pas – ou peut-être étais-je trop obnubilée par une énième paire de seins malaxées en gros plan.

Al fin terminó, Mmmmm el CTM de Ikeuchi apareció, todos sabíamos que volvería y haría alguna estupidez.
Creo que era una gran idea de manga, pero lo mata el fanservice , no hubo ningún aporte del equipo que habían armado Shuichi y Clair , la verdad solo fue medio relleno.
El final también algo cliché, donde nos dicen que ahira muchos tienen poderes y pelearan para defender.
La batalla contra Honoka e Ikeuchi fue meeeeee. Si existiese una continuación dudo que la leeria

Ending was worth the wait

I loved the art from the start, but the story had me doubting at times whether it was worth continuing. However, the author pulls everything together over the last three books, not only tying up loose ends but culminating in a very satisfying ending. Overall a compelling, enjoyable read.

Just like before, the flashbacks are getting in the way. The flow of the story is broken up to add details to each event and accusation. Surely, there is a batter way to highlight the flasbacks. As it is, the reader has to figure out the chronology of the panels on the same page. At least it's over. Did you expect anything other than a happy end?

Or, wait. Ikeuchi isn't dying. The little s#it is broadcasting Shuichi and Claire's past fights to the people. He is showing those events in such a way as to put the duo in a bad light. The duo wueld more power by the end of the fight. Don't ask me how. Magic. So they win and Shuichi even forgives Ikeuchi for his betrayal. Then he absorbs the remaining negativity along with the aliens corrupted by Honoka and Ikeuchi. And he disappears. Magic, huh?

Shuichi returns later to protect the world from others who abuse the alien power.

I can't tell whether reading this was that enjoyable of an experience? don't get me wrong it definitely was interesting, let's take the artstyle and characters development for istance. The designs kept on getting more interesting each chapter and eventually same goes for the mc's mindset. The plot, although unclear for awhile, progressively made sense and that obviously contribued in reaching the climax. So honestly the sexualisation of the female characters felt too forced, I personally, and I bet that other people feel the same, don't need to see naked women each time to keep on reading something. This and some other questionable things made this very slopppy, in short, it had all the materials but didn't know how to use them.

Hace mucho que soy fan de este manga, pero el final me decepcionó, el giro de arco fue horrible, él manga se queda vacío, no cierra los huecos, me parece que le final pudo ser mejor y no como un volver a empezar. Simplemente esto baja todo lo que opino de esta serie.

It’s not bad, but it’s not good. I feel like something a little more bittersweet would’ve worked for the whole “life goes on” type narrative. That guy coming back again really spoiled the sacrifice, but at least the rest of it was pretty good.

I felt the last 2 volumes were kinda of rushed after a very long climax from last 5 books. I expected the new world and its existence of coins and alien powers. But, didn’t expect monster to still exists within shuchi.

Overall a good manga and satisfied with the climax.

A great ending to a great manga it’s had its ups and downs however am happy I stuck through and finished it, the fight was top notch the art visceral and gritty, it wraps everything up perfectly.

I'm glad the series is over. I'll likely be getting rid of my copies of each volume.
GANTZ is a far superior alien story.
This series is not worth your time.

*Deep breath* Ok, so this series is one of my special interests/hyperfixations and all I can say is this could not have been wrapped up more perfectly!
So unbelievably satisfying! I love everything about Gleipnir. The world building, the art style, the character bonds, the dialogue, the deeper meanings of it all..I'm so in awe and genuinely mourning now that its over. Im already planning my next reread/rewatch. I really wish the anime had continued because the fight scenes in this volume in particular would of been INSANE to watch.
I really did not expect the last plot twist of a certain character coming back. You could not of paid me to correctly predict that.
The last bits of this volume also made me scream, cry and scream again because HOLY SHIT IF YOU KNOW YOU KNOW AND YOU KNOW ITS ABOUT TIME. All in all GLEIPNIR IS VICIOUSLY UNDERATED and Sun Takeda is an amazing story teller and artist.

that ending…i actually shed a tear, or many. theres truly nothing like this series. i loved it from start to finish. 12/10

[Nick · Rating 4 out of 5]

Wasn’t too bad an ending but had an odd and unnecessary interruption by a certain character that could have happened earlier. Overall the series reminds me of Gantz, dark fantasy and aliens.
