I recommend skipping this series if you start it. Waaay too long an execution for so little gain / entertainment. One of those series you finish and are just annoyed.

Art's good, setup's good, but just watch one of the movies instead of wasting your time reading this entire thing.

رائعة ..أدهشتني!!!
مانجا نوع ..غموووض ..نفسي ..

ذكرتني بالانمي الرائع monester

تتحدث عن رجل تم اختطافه و حجزه في مبنى ل عشر سنوات
وفجأة يرى نفسه في الخارج؟؟!!
فمن الذي اختطفه وماهو السبب!!!
وهل سينتقم ؟!
وبالمناسبة هناك فيلم بنفس الاسم اقتبس منه ولكن مع الاختلاف
خصوصا في موضوع الانتقام (البطل).

الحقيقة المانجا تشد الأنفاس . تششويق ..اثاره وبعيدا عن القتال والشوجو(فنون القتال)
القصة عمييقه ..نفسيه ..
طوال الوقت وأتساءل احقا الحبس لعشر سنوات لا تغير في الانسان؟؟!!!

وماهي أقصى مراحل الحقد
حقد انسان لشخص من الطفولة أثرت به ودمر حياته؟؟!وفضل الانتقام منه ب حبسه عن قتله!!بل واللعب معه

النهاية كانت موضحة من البداية للشخصيه الشريرة
اخيرا ..شخصية الشرير احبتتها جدا في المانجا على عكس الفيلم
احببت

Easy to flip through in an afternoon - leads into the twisted story of Oh-Dae Su. Watched the movie as well - what a ride. Recommended, this story is like John Wick but from the asian perspective. There is gruesome violence, but it is generally over in a realistic amount of time and though people are at times super human is is almost believable as being fueled by adrenaline, meanwhile the sexual aspects are played full hilt as compared to the usually straight forward sexual tension (if present) in an American equivalent story.

I watched the South Korean film based on this manga when I was thirteen years old and I fell in love with it. I thought the plot twist was so unpredictable; I’d considered it my favorite movie for years.

So far, I think this start is just okay.

Eri’s attraction to “Mister” was so abrupt. She decides to lose her virginity to a thirty-five year old stranger she’s known for a few hours and immediately clings to him. There’s something about this that I didn’t like. It’s not believable, I guess.

El dibujo me gusta y la manera en que la narrativa se vuelve como trama de investigación y de detectives. Es bastante diferente a la película.

I liked this. It’s got a cool tough-guy noir vibe that I dig much more than the unhinged craziness of the film.
