I Am a Hero (Manga)

First of all this is my first review so don t judge me too hard.I was avoiding this manga because the summary looked stupid and really boring but I was wrong !!
Its a great horror manga , and a great zombie manga.Some people tell me its like HOTD but its wrong the manga is kind of slow but with that its more realistic.Don t give up the manga just because the zombies ( well i think they are zombies ) aren t appearing in the first chapters.

Story 8
I give the manga a 8 for the story its slow but pretty interesting and the author first explains the life of the main character before the monsters get in.There are only a few chapters ( 34 now ) so i can t tell anymore without telling spoilers.

Art 7
Its a realistic manga with a realistic art its not everyone pair of shoes.Even if I m not such a great fan of realistic art i liked it.Note , don t read it late at night the monsters freaked me out they are really well made.

Character 7
The main character is kind of freaky and strange in my opinion. Personally I don t think the main character is sane , he talks to himself.There aren t any side characters that make a impression on me.

Enjoyment 8
I really enjoyed the manga and i recommend it to all horror and zombie lovers out there. read more

I love a good post-apocalyptic manga... I've read the 8 volumes released so far and the mangaka is doing great capitalizing on all the potential of the story. It's a thrilling read so far.

Hideo, a manga illustrator struggling with his job and maintaining a relationship with his girlfriend, finds himself trying to stay alive in world where a virus is spreading like rapidfire and people are rabid and biting each other. A lot of the scenes were actually incredibly disturbing like the scene where all the manga illustrators go crazy. Not to mention, Hideo isn't all right in the head and has never been.

The art is really interesting too. It's like it purposefully makes everyone look ugly, maybe to show the ugly side of human nature? ...The story takes a really fascinating look at human nature. There are people that take their defensive stance, some people who go looney tunes in their survival mode, and yet others who become actual monsters in their actions. Fascinating!

I cannot wait to read more. read more
