It is average, and character designs are the same. Moving past the almost-but-not-quite-ecchi, there is the rest of the art. That is the only "nudity," in case you cared.

It is in no way sexy, and it is just offensive. Shura's chest is drawn like a child's squiggle-deformed by that tight bikini. Aside from the fact that my hoe alarm is going off at full blast, the mangaka can't even DRAW breasts that well. Her breasts are huge, and she always wears a bikini. No, not Shiemi (she will get skewered LATER), but Shura. I noticed one or two panty shots (neither was in-your-face), and then there's that bitch. This is just so, so wrong.īut, more on those things later. Yes, you read that correctly: The borderline-ecchi. Unfortunately, it is brought down by a few things: This sounds pretty cool and less generic than it could sound. (And his douchestreetcar of a brother is his teacher.) He then starts to go to a school for exorcists (because typical shounen hero is going to save his friends and "kick Satan's ass!") and meets a bunch of characters along the way. However, an unfortunate event involving MOTHERF*CKING SATAN causes his adoptive father to die, and Rin to learn that he is the bastard offspring of Satan. Story: Okumura Rin is your typical teenage boy. Enter "Blue Exorcist" ("Ao no Exorcist").

But as it is now, and with nothing to imply there could be an entire second part or continuation ala Naruto and Naruto Shippuden, I'm feeling a little uneasy about whether or not one of my personal favorite stories gets a satisfying ending.There are a lot of overrated manga in this world. If they even gave us two or three more volumes, then I'd be a lot more confident. It genuinely just feels like we might not have the time to end things the way they should, and at the pace they should, but maybe that's just me being overly anxious.

The main conflict itself doesn't seem like it will have the time to actually end at the pace it wants to, let alone any and all plot elements that exist alongside the main conflict.

I ask because, as much as I love this manga, and I think incredibly highly of it, there are still a solid number of plot threads running around with not many chapters left if we follow Kodansha's timeline.Īnd this is ignoring popular fan ideas that legitimately have a lot of buildup in the story like Yato and Hiyori getting together, or Yato being revealed as a branded Tsukuyomi or a Tsukuyomi parallel. With the news from about three weeks ago, about how the manga will be ending before the end of this year in volume 27, are you concerned that Adachitoka can pull it off?
