School Days (Manga)

For viewers that are familiar with the anime, this manga clearly falls upon a different outlook of School Days. While reading the manga, I was certainly surprise with the different outcomes feature in the story.

Though the main storyline is similar to the anime, the manga contains different approaches that certainly make it an interesting read. For the male protaganist, some layers of his personality make his character completely different to his anime version. One example is that he generally shows concern to the females he is being involved with. This strangely enough makes him more of a likable person.

I also enjoy some of the artwork they have put together in the manga. During times in the story, the female protaganists provide "moe" images that certainly portray their cuteness in the manga. Other emotional expressions were also feature effectively from situations in the story.

As the story comes to a close, it does eventually hit a few dark corners that will certainly bring a shock to its readers. Overall though, the manga is certainly an addicting and entertaining read especially to fans of School Days interested in seeing different outcomes.

If you are a big horror manga fan like me, prepare to be highly disappointed. The story isn't very smart nor is it interesting. The art is okay, it's your average anime style. The characters are so stereotypical it makes me want to cry. There's the boy that has no personality, his wacky best friend, and the shy moe-ish girl that the boy likes. Of course since it's a horror manga you know what's going to happen at the end. But was it violent, frightening, or disturbing? Maybe to some people who thought it was a shojo manga, but to the people who read the genre saying "horror"? Not at all. This person just tried to make something like Higurashi (a true horror manga, with violent, bloody, and disturbing images) and epicly failed. read more
