Reviews

[Social_Sloth]

The action, the drama, the deadly encounters, wow that sounded cheesy. But honestly though, a lot happened in these three volumes. Tyki Mikk gets a serious upgrade as the noah within him takes over, Allen suddenly knowing how to play a piano, the 14th's legacy and a level 4 akuma appearing a lot happened.
As always the art is outstanding, you get all the action and tension of the fight in all those frames the entire manga has incredible flow between the frames. The character designs are awesome, and the attention to detail at all times is brilliant.
The plot moves fast, but in a good way, the characters get very short breaks between the disasters, whoch keeps the plot progressing. This manga we also get to know more about Lavi and his role as bookman when Road tries to break him.

Δεν ξέρω γιατί αλλά μου φαίνεται ότι μετά το volume 13 οι σκηνές μάχη φαίνονται λίγο πιο καθαρές. Μπορεί να είναι ότι άλλαξε λίγο το art style ή έχει γίνει καλύτερο editing και είναι λίγο πιο τακτοποιημένο.
Αυτό το volume είναι στην κυριολεξία ένας αγώνας επιβίωσης με ένα ενδιάμεσο διάλειμμα για να προχωρήσει λίγο η πλοκή και να γνωρίσουμε τους καινούριους χαρακτήρες, που μάλλον θα παίξουν μεγαλύτερο ρόλο απ' ότι φαίνεται τώρα.

As much as I love the chr and the plot,the art is a little difficult to be recognized ,like it is a lot of noise and cloudy to actually understand what is happening,not sure cos the combined vol quality is little darker tht the single vol. Or it is the art in general..still going to cont..with it

[Harry]

This manga is amazing but you can only understand 85 % of the fight scenes!

[Lisa]

I liked vol.5 better than vol. 4 because it had a lot more plot. There is still a lot of fights but other stuff also happens which is nice.

[Rin]

This manga is consistently a 4-5* manga for me

[Lucinda]

One disaster after another...

Poor everyone. Except that rouvelier or whatever his name is guy.

How many people are in love with Allen at this point?

[Saphirablue]

I like this one better as the last one. The story progressed a bit and the discovery about Allen? Wow! I'm very curious what's up with that.

[Christine]

Yeah!!! Life!
