Darker than Black: Shikkoku no Hana review
After rewatching DtB and Gaiden the last few days, and being horribly disappointed with how Gaiden ended and the overall terrible plot line it has, I was super excited to find this. I was prepared to be in a semi-depressed slump at how badly the series finishes up, especially as I had no interest in rewatching the mess that is season 2. But after finding this and reading the reviews I decided to give it a shot. So, so glad I did.
This was an excellent way to finish my experience with Darker than Black. Great story, fun new characters, small horror sub-genre, and provided closure even if the ending was a little open-ended. The art is good, the action scenes are easy to follow, the characters are well done, the story is definitely enjoyable, and the plot was interesting. There is some... typical anime over dramatization at the end, which definitely loses a point from me. Buuut easily overlooked with how well done everything else was. And there's some nice interactions between Hei and Yin if you care about that. All in all, a great read. Definitely considering this the real "epilogue" to how season 1 ended. |
Darker than Black: Shikkoku no Hana review
Since this manga has only one review I feel like I have to join in!
Basically, if you were kind of weirded out by the second season of Darker than Black, then just come and read this manga, and pretend it is the second season instead. The artist is the character designer from the show's first season, and his style is pretty neat. However, if you really go for the by-the-book standard style of drawing, then it might weird you out a little bit. Either way, reading it is pretty much the same as watching the show, so I can't help but like it. |
