Kansen Rettou review
Upon seeing a few sample pages, I was really looking forward to reading this manga. After all, the art looked brilliant, the genres all fit my tastes and I love a quick read.
Unfortunately, in hindsight, the art turned out to be the only enjoyable thing about 'Kansen Rettou'. The detail adds impact to both the gruesome and the beautiful frames, but not quite enough to keep the mere seven chapters from seeming like dozens. To be fair, the story isn't bad at all, it simply is what it is. If you've ever seen or read a single movie, anime, manga or book about a sudden unknown virus outbreak, then you know this whole story. There are a few small scenes that have a bit of emotional impact, but overall it feels like it's only going through the motions and following a familiar equation. Patient Zero --> Unknown Virus --> Uh oh! No Cure --> Lots of people die, etcetera and so on. If you have nothing better to do and you don't expect anything spectacular going in, then give it a try, but if you're looking for interesting characters or something that grabs you and keeps you interested, I would look somewhere else. |
