Product Information

awalnya kamishiro berniat mengungkapkan perasaannya kepada teman masa kecil sekaligus cinta pertamanya, hanasono mika, tapi semua berubah ketika perasaannya bercampur dengan naluri membunuh. disepanjang volume 1, kamishiro menahan diri untuk tidak berfantasi mengenai darah dan raut kesakitan hanasono. dia pikir, menghindari hanasono dan melakukan percobaan bunuh diri akan mempermudah keadaan. tapi cerita tidak berjalan sesederhana itu, ada banyak rintangan yang menanti, termasuk bertemu dan melawan orang-orang lain yang terinfeksi. tl;dr: A manga with a decent horror focused start that becomes a lot worse when it becomes action oriented. After Chapter 14 the story shifts, bringing in more drama and suspense. At this point the character growth and story progression begins to slow down. The main focus is rebuilding the manga to shift the story from the initial outbreak to finding Hanazono, along with the two groups fighting for power. The blood and gore gets toned down a bit, to really focus redirecting the story.

Here we have the same trope, but it takes center stage. This guy wants to kill the cutest girl in school, but he also wants her to live. So this cognitive dissonance is at the heart of the story, and what it might represent is admirable. I have just seen it so many times. Per questi motivi... mi sacrificherò e continuerò a leggere nonostante tutto, sperando in un miracolo. Alright, so I finally finished Konya wa tuski. It's only 35 chapters long, but I say "finally" because I had to struggle to reach the end. Not because it drags on, but because it wasn't much of an enjoyable read. I honestly considered dropping this manga many times, but I continued going since I felt I just had to write a review for it. Of course, our protagonist only wants to kill her because he’s infected. This takes the “burden” of agency out of the equation, and makes the story seem indulgent a bit in a weird ass incel fantasy.

This manga is centered around a disease known as Intellect Destruction, or ID for short. For those that are infected with ID, feelings of love towards someone invoke feelings of bloodlust towards that same person, and thus they feel a desire to kill those they are in love with. Very few people know about this disease’s existence, and thus when a high school boy named Kamishiro suddenly and unexpectedly wants to kill Fights are easy to follow, and are just alright. They usually get a power surge from bloodlust or love. A mysterious outbreak that turns love into bloodlust that begins to run rampant. Kamishiro (MC) has a vivid hallucination of stabbing his childhood friend, Hanazono very similar plot device. Ironically both titles never managed to gain mainstream media attention even though they tried very hard. So if you have read ''Alive'', you will feel very much at home here.

We see similar things in film and television. The first season of Hannibal took murder as an art form to a whole new level. The artwork is fantastic, it is nicely detailed, bloody and on point. I enjoyed reading this to the point that I couldn't stop until there was nothing left. If you enjoy a violent and gory manga, this one needs to be on your list. It is highly underappreciated and will probably go unrecognized but it is well worth your time to read.i☆Ris the Movie - Full Energy!! - Anime Film Teaser Visual Revealed at i☆Ris Live Stage in Anime NYC & i☆Ris First Performance in New York Successfully Completed Questo primo volume è... fatto male, posso capire che dare fin da subito spiegazioni su cosa, come e quando sia rischioso per la trama e impossibile, se tutti sapessimo fin dalla prima pagina chi è l'assassino in un giallo non leggeremmo mai il libro (forse) ma per lo meno sarebbe bello avere spunti intriganti per continuare la lettura, avere personaggi carismatici e interessanti da seguire e vicende curiose da scoprire invece ci ritroviamo con cose a caso e zerbini ambulanti. his childhood friend Hanazono he has absolutely no clue what’s going on and thinks that he’s going insane. This book dabbles in that. I think it is mainly just trying to make cute ladies look cute while dead. I don’t think they are too focused on death aesthetic (in Hannibal it is a visual priority and integral to the story). It is worth noting. We also have the theme of death aesthetic going on. Some of the earlier seasons of America’s Next Top Model featured women being photographed like they were dead. Painted to look pretty in a tub of blood, or looking hot while drying on the sun-bleached pavement. It was weird, but apparently there’s a market for it 🤷🏻‍♀️

After chapter 9, the school setting is dropped and we have to deal with a fight between two organizations that head towards the same thing: finding a cure to the virus. This, of course, isn't a new thing seen in manga, but at this point I really didn't care. It also changes from a gore manga to a shonen style. to explain a little about the premise. I might spoil, but most of these things are explained near the beginning. Character... Fair I guess. Nothing special. Pretty much like every other main hero. Lame and bland high school student with a obsessive trait. It's sorta like, you know who everyone is before they are properly introduced. Not a bad thing really, but as you know what to expect, the character development (where there is a pretty good one) becomes poof. It loses it's meaning. I wouldn’t have minded the edge and the raging puberty in the plot – I came for them: one has to read teen angsty action sometimes to mantain the balance in the world – if not for the absolutely disgusting and out of place torture imagery. I am not sure why it’s suddenly acceptable to have spreads with main heroine being strangled on her own intestines and dragged along the street by a car in shounen now. Even if these are “visions”.Art. Hmmmhm. The art is very nice. Easy to read. Not much to complain. Except for one flaw. Male characters tend to be a bit more varied in terms of facial design, however female characters suffer from the ''same face'' syndrome, where it looks like the same person with a different wig. It's not really bothering too much, I just personally take more attention to the art, so occasionally I see 2 different characters and notice they look identical. But shouldn't be much of an issue for most people. Overall, I really enjoyed reading this *overlylongtitleIrefusetowrite*. The art can be eye candy sometimes and the story has it's interesting parts despite part of it being fairly obvious. Will I continue reading? Yes, but it's probably one of those titles I completely forget about along the way, only to start reading it again in a year or two. Just like how ''Alive'' managed to barely stay alive. Basic lay-it-down-to-me plot of both titles (possible spoilers)... The nation one day becomes infected with a strange disease, where everyone starts dying or killing each other on mass. Main character somehow overcomes the disease to some degree, lose the girl and goes on a journey to become stronger fighting off strange organizations.
