3 starsI liked this a little better than the last time I read it, in 2006. I still found the 1st volume distastefully gross. The info dumping was also annoying, which I don't remember noticing the last time. And finally, the action scenes are really hard for me to follow, and I'm not sure why. Maybe because I find Allen's weaponized hand so silly and weird looking.Starting this manga. I've heard amazing things about this from my friends. It's really interesting so far.
~3.5 Stars~I found this in a used/new bookstore in Bangor, Maine, and I decided, well - I watched the first episode of the anime forever ago and I remember it wasn't too bad, so... why not?

The enemies, called Akuma, are literally a physical manifestation of the darkness in ones heart. The souls need help when coming back to this world unwillingly and thats where our villain, the Millenium Earl, comes in. Its described in several ways and in different ways which makes it foolproof even when it might not seem completely alignedFor instance its also
ART SECTION: 8/10The gothic motif is something worthy of praise, while the rather rough outlines make everything look more grim and scary. Besides that, like almost any other shounen it is full of rather clear-cut good guys and bad guys, dressed in clothes following a motif. So aesthetics aside it plays out as any other of its kind.
