I only liked one thing about this manga, and that's the girl.
I rarely rate mangas under 6 because each manga has its strengths and i strive to be fair even if i hated it by the end.

Around chapter 13 i couldn't read anymore, i felt like looking at the wall and counting dots would be more rewarding than continuing the manga. I jumped to the end and was surprised to see it actuall had one since i was expecting a dead end for this type of shounen designed to spread on tens of volumes. However, if it had one it doesn't mean it was any good.

I can only recommend this to my enemies (you know who you are).

 It's Not That Bad

Well, maybe because I've been prepared for the worst but it's really not that bad...
I hope it can be a little bit longer so that we can see more development... For me, it was pretty boring at the beginning but after that, it was good...
It's a good short reading...

This manga was great at the beginning - the first few chapters. It was intriguing enough and presented the foundation of the story and the characters quite well.

The style (spacing, framing) takes a while to get used to. It's messy and most of the time there aren't any definite borders so things can go out of control and appear all jumbled. This can be quite vexing and/or straining for the eyes.

The plot itself isn't anything new when you get down to it but, nevertheless, it's interesting enough not to be called bad. The ending was wrapped up quite nicely even though it was only a few chapters short (this can be either good or bad depending on your preference). Although I can't really complain as this series was probably pressured to end quickly.

My only real problem is with a plot twist at the end

Spoiler (highlight to view)
Ring is the protagonist's brother


as I didn't see any real foreshadowing - the kind that starts at the very beginning. As a result, it felt too forced and seemed as just an afterthought.

All in all, I'd say it's a decent quick-read shounen manga.

if you are a teenager maybe you'll enjoy this...if you are an adult though AND you don't like shounen you should stay far away from this...i thought this was horror before reading it for some reason...maybe in the genres there was horror in the past and somebody removed it cuz horror is obviously not under the genres now...anyway, a few changes here and there from other shounen circulations doesn't mean that this isn't just another generic formulaic shounen manga at heart....take any other shounen manga that is revolved around fighting anything going against the main heroes (yaaaaaaawn) put in some civilians being murdered by these bad guys (wow! breakthrough stuff...they are some really mean badasses!!) different art and there you have it...you have your innovative manga of the day....mmmm yeah....so if what i said doesn't click with you don't waste your time...this is JUST another shounen....

about the art...well, it's not good...it fooled when i was flipping the manga but when i sat and read it i realized that the mangaka is not technically skilled and his art style is not interesting to make up for it...it is meshy and it tries to be interesting when it actually isn't...but yeah it is different though it did not appeal to me and i din't think it had any sense of style

A manga that had great potential, but was unfortunately cut short.

The ending was pretty good though, considering it was in a chapter or two, kind of wrapped up everything quickly.

Looking forward to the author's next series.

 Not bad for 2 Volumes

It was a very interesting manga to reading from beginning to end, the plot was excuted nicely, the art was on par for a WSJ series and the ending was good (liked the plot twist at the end).

But there are also some problems, for instance, the mangaka didn't focus on the characters as more as he should, and it could have reached a greater potential but it was just two volumes.

Anyway, it's not bad, read and judge for yourselves.

 Amazing 2 Volumes

For some reason it felt like i just read a 5 volume manga. So much was packed into each volume, without losing the quality. This is an amazing manga with a unique plot and a nice couple. Wish it had a bit more romance, then it would be a 10 smile

Nice manga. READ!!

Im not one for horror but this one is a exception, every chapter got my full attention, its more suspense then horror. Even though it is considered Shounen it has a lot of adult lvl themes murder, mass trauma, and even places were rape was thought of.

the girl bokke cat in the book in the perverted pose, and that frog bokke with the ability to touch what is on the picture in real life, he slapped the thigh of the girl and was bit stalker statues
It is very interesting read deffenet recommend.

After you get to the unique art style, you'll be amazed. Although, occasionally the panels get a bit busy. Interesting story, wonderful characters. I'm actually amazed Weekly Shonen Jump produced this.

This manga style is quite interesting and you never quite know what will happen next. O.O And another thing that is interesting is the relationship between the two main characters. Are they friends or will they go out? I just cant wait to read what happens next! ^^
