Owari no Seraph

Description

From Viz:
Yuichiro’s dream is near-impossible, given that vampires are seven times stronger than humans, and the only way to kill them is by mastering Cursed Gear, advanced demon-possessed weaponry. Not to mention that humanity’s most elite Vampire Extermination Unit, the Moon Demon Company, wants nothing to do with Yuichiro unless he can prove he’s willing to work in a team - which is the last thing he wants.

Interesting

The premise is very interesting and the art is nice. It seems to be developing at a good pace, too. Unfortunately, I can't bring myself to like the protagonist very much (he's been built well as a character IMO, it's just my personal preference). Other than that though I'd give it a 8 or 9 at least.

Owari no seraph is definitely not a unique story. It has a shounen appeal though, and that's the major draw to the story. The art is nice as well, so that adds to it I guess.

Typical shounen... or is it?

by asmageddon

NOTE: This is based on the anime adaptation.

With all of the lack of attention to worldbuilding that comes with it, shitty tropes, and plot that's based on "wow look how badass our MC is"... but then it turns out that there's more to it, even if the writing is still mediocre, and even if it's still kinda bland... it's intriguing enough to keep going.

Shittiest shounen since Naruto.

Also I am actually rooting for the vampires since the majority of the human characters are pure douchebags. At least the vamps haven't been shown yet to be experimenting on their own kind or torturing sick little girls and forcing her to become a living weapon. Seriously, fuck the humans.

Kind of disturbing for weird reasons.

This manga has a really odd habit of doing things in a creepy manner. The first chapter basically set the tone for me with one of the characters essentially being a male (and child) prostitute to a vampire.

After that, it still keeps the tone in this dissonant state. It even toys a lot with a peaceful school setting, but it never leaves the mentality that every character in the cast could be killed off on the next page. It's mysterious without having much mystery, and it feels like much of it is just going through the motions without any real idea of why.

I'm kind of in the opinion that it will live or die by it's tone, because that is about all it has going for it.

Edit 2: Please don't try to delegitimize my review because you don't like what I have to say. That is so juvenile. The only "new low" here is the crude and dismissive way you've attempted to discredit me. That is sickening. You're perfectly entitled to your own opinion, and so am I. Neither one of us is right or wrong. They are called opinions for a reason, and stories can and do resonate differently from person to person. There will never be a universally accepted opinion. So next time, kindly offer your own opinion without trying to tear down a contrary one. That's not what “good reviewers” do; it’s what inarticulate children do when they’re frustrated that someone criticized Something They Like (TM).

As to the content of my review, I feel it's sufficient in getting my point across. It was never meant to serve as an in-depth analysis, nor as the be-all and end-all authority on this particular work. Its primary purpose was to act as warning to like-minded (notice the emphasis there) readers so that they don’t have to waste their time wading through something they likely won’t enjoy. I have no need or desire to waste my time writing any more on this manga because frankly, I'm tired of this kind of schlock. Writers need to try harder and have more respect for their stories and their audience. I have absolutely no reason to excuse, celebrate, or otherwise promote what strikes me as lazy and uninspired writing. None. Now, if anyone would like recommendations for shounen series that I think are done well, feel free to PM me. But really, that's neither here nor there, is it?

Original Review

...and that's something I could tell from chapter one. I've read far too many trite shounen series, and from just one chapter of this mess, I could already tell it was on the fast track down to Overused Shounen Clichés hell. Before I even reached the end of that first chapter, I’d already uttered the Eight Deadly Words and had my mouse hovering over the little X on its tab. I don’t entirely know how to describe it outside of a visceral gut feeling, but I could just tell with that opening that this series would be insipid, uninspired, and a complete waste of my life. Actually, it wasn’t visceral at all – I was working off my carefully and lovingly honed Hack Detection Interface, and the readings were simply off the charts!

But far be it from me to deny a work a second chance. So I nosed around on the Internet and read reviews for both the manga and the anime. And, exactly as I’d surmised, this manga doesn’t pull a miraculous recovery and prove itself to be deeper than it initially appears. No, it stays exactly the same – boring, cliché-ridden, hackneyed, and pandering to the lowest common denominator. So as far as I’m concerned, this thing was DOA.

But you might like it if you enjoy (I’ll repeat) uninspired, follow-the-leader trend-chasers whose only aim is to be The Next Big Thing (TM) so that their creators can pull in the cash. And I, personally, have very little respect for such endeavors.

Edit: Just realized the author is actually primarily a light novelist. I am exactly 0% surprised.

What the hell is even going on? This story is a mess. The art is the only redeeming factor.

a lost opportunity

this series is a great example of attack on titan rip off done wrong:
x race dominates humanity ,said humanity is almost crushed but survives
mc loses precious loved ones to x race, wants to kill all of them
simple formula difficult to fuck it up
well this is where this "thing" come in
immediately after mc's vow to kill of of the x race he meets up with super leader/ captain of the human army and when you are all hyped up thinking "oh yeah military training and vampire hunting starts now biches"
it throws you in a school
no a military one not a weapon academy not a super people school
a fucking normal school
why the fuck would u you put them in a normal school?
and yeah now a smart will pop up say "it is a military school"
no it isnt
the writing is sloppy
the pacing is bad
the story is bland
the art is standard shounen
the characters are shallow bad cliches
the villains are boring
it could have been something great
but its all too dark and edgy
dont even bother with this mistake

Oh god, where to start?

The revenge driven protagonist after he grows up literally being treated as human livestock?
The apathetic vampires who justify destroying the Earth because humans would have done so in the future anyway?
The oh-so-"dark" implications of humans using demonic weapons in a post-apocalyptic world?

And this is all within the first 8 chapters.
