Description
From Tokyopop:
Rain Jewlitt, known as the Methuselah, is a spaced-out, immortal, 624-year-old man dressed in priest's clothes. He's got eternal youth and a large price on his head... put there by those questing after the secret of his immortality. Machika Balfaltin is a tomboyish, energetic 14-year-old girl who, upon the death of her grandfather, sets out to kill Methuselah, the one bounty her assassin grandfather, Zol the Grim Reaper, couldn't kill. Instead, however, Machika ends up being saved by Rain again and again from other aspiring bounty hunters attacking them both. Sound like the beginnings of an odd relationship? You won't believe where their journey takes them...
@spoon: Yeah it reminded me of Trigun too, yet it has its own brilliance. The characters have depth, and the art is superb. And there is a nice blend of action/comedy/romance. To those who can't find it, look up #lurk in IRC and ask around!
It has beautiful drawings. Although the concept is not original but it has a good mix of action and romance. Highly recommanded for those who want a not so deep manga to read.
this sort of reminded me of Trigun. (if your a fan of Trigun then I suggest you read this) it inst long winded or mushy beyond belief. the dialog is easy to read and inst pompous. the art is very well done and isn't sparkley.
there are many times when I laugh out loud from this manga and sometimes when I gasp for shock. very good manga.
One of my favorite mangas from Tokyopop ^^ Everything about the manga is refreshing: the characters, the plot, etc. I love how there's always that aspect of romance through it all, but never to the point of corniness (as someone else mentioned). There's plenty of action/adventure and drama as well, so I'd have to say that Immortal Rain is a manga for anyone and everyone! I'm a diehard shoujo fan and I must admit, this was a wonderful change from my usual large eye pretty face sort of artwork and cheesy romantic plots. 5 STARS!
