I am a hero (manga, 2009-2017)
- 8 years.
8 years, 22 volumes, 264 chapters.
One of the best zombie works of fiction of the last 10 years. (I’d say the best, but there’s lots of people who love that soap opera…what’s it’s name? Walking dead? Something like that.)
Finally the big blobs of ZQNs had conveyed somewhere.
“This is it! It’s going to be epic! What brought the ZQNs there? Why did all this happen? What will Hideo do?”
More manga!
This was actually written on the 16th of April of this year (2014), I just completely forgot about it on the notepad and didn’t type it on the computer. Later today I’ll post my rant about “Paca Plus”.
As I had said, I decided to check Kengo Hanazawa’s other works.
So after finishing reading the already translated chapters of “I am a hero”, I started reading “Ressentiment“, and…
Good manga…
And…
Just finished reading “Metro Survive”.
Pretty good, if you like this kind of story. (natural disaster, shit hits the fan and it’s time to survive)
Nice for such a short story (two volumes), makes you think about things, not only the obvious “What would I do if SHTF?”, but also about…let’s say, your priorities in life.
If I have any criticism to give it is that the end is just too perfect, too just, which is somewhat unrealistic. In the story both good and bad guys have bad stuff happen to them along the way, but in the end there’s the ever expectable ending of: ‘Good Guys’ end up great, ‘Bad Guys’ not so much. Too much karmic justice going around in that manga world.
And it manages to make you laugh (or at least smile) when the train guy takes his hat off which he hadn’t taken off the whole time.
So that’s a 6.5/10.
And back for another rant.
So, as by now has been established I like reading manga and watching anime (among lots of other things).
Since I have already written some posts about my latest manga reading, I guess it leaves you wondering: “So, what was the last anime you watched, since your last post about the topic?”
Nearly nothing, I know I haven’t watched anything in 2013 that I hadn’t watched before, I watched something in 2012 (I can remember watching “Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai”, but can’t recall much more than that).
Finished Volume 12 of “I am a hero”
Which, as far a I know is the most recent translated one.
From here on, there will be spoilers about the manga, don’t continue if you don’t want spoilers (as slight as some might be)
Wow, long time since I last read manga.
(Hell yeah wordpress, first time ever that I use quick draft and it doesn’t fucking save so I had to re-write this post, fucking love ya! )
Yeah, last time I remember reading manga was probably somewhere last year (2013), last time I made a post about it was in 2011. (considering I wrote nothing in 2013 and stopped almost in the middle of 2012, it’s not really that much time)
So, it was time to read some manga and make another post, because…stuff. (because I feel like writing damn it!)
Since zombies are so en vogue, I started reading “I am a hero” , pity it is still ongoing since as I said before I like to read manga start to finish in one go. (well, not necessarily in one go, I normally sleep eat and all that, I just don’t like to break the pace of reading more than necessary)
