Saviour

Description

In the middle of an infinity of worlds, which respect the rule of non-interference, there lives a Savior in the city, who protects the people. Holding his guitar, he has a mission: save each world from its own crisis. Almost every time he succeeds, but always feels a little more gloomy. One day, a shooting star brings an illness to the city which turns people into zombies...

(note: Chinese zombies and Western zombies are quite different).

I have to say that I wasn't sure whether to even start the series with such... let's call it well used plot by other artists, but I was pleasantly surprised. The art is truly magnificent, to the point one of the pages is my wallpaper right now (good bye cherry blossom). The story is also one of my favourite; not cliché, fresh and gripping. It suited the art, or rather complemented it, because it is the centre piece of the manhua. You probably will not like it if you like the usual candy and sugar shojo genre, but even then you should look at it, because it will just change your perspective on manga for ever (I mean my favourite mangakas look like amateurs).

As with all Benjamin's works the visuals greatly surpass the value of it's story. But that's not a bad thing, cause coming up with a story that could leave art like that in it's shadow should be nearly impossible. lol Images are gorgeous, sketchy and with vibrant colors. The story is depressing... it's not bad, but I doubt that I'll read it ever again. Though I'll probably open it up a couple more times and gaze at the pretty pictures. Would love to have a hard copy of this one cause the available scans aren't doing justice to Benjamis art style.

The art style is beautiful. But it doesn't matter. I'll stop reading this series. Even if I like the characters very much and can't help staring at the monitor looking at the art.... it's too depressing. If there's a positive, sweet element, it turns dark afterwards. And everything is completely subjective, all only from the perspective of the protagonist who prefers thinking of the world as something that's all but sweet and lovely. The message "Saviour" carries is too heavy, too negative. And that's exactly the reason I'll stop reading it. Yes, even though I like the art style and the characters and even though there's nothing else to complain about. Actually "Savior" is the first work I read by Benjamin. It will also be the last, I don't want to imagine what "Orange" is like.
