Synopsis

In an era of ruin, mankind lives in fear of those branded with the "Devil's Mouth"—immortals who are demonized, hunted and killed, only to return and exact vengeance on those who have harmed them. Amid the endless cycle of hatred, a young boy and girl appear in a distant town, offering to bury an undead that has been tormenting its people.

But who is this boy who bears the mark of their enemy?

Could they be the key to humanity's salvation?

I recommend this to people still discovering manga and coming into this glorious world of anime. It has really interesting ...

Story:
For its short length, I was pleasantly surprised to find an incredibly interesting world within Shuumatsu no Laughter.

I'll be completey honest here, at first when Shuumatsu no Laughter was reccomended to me, I thought I would dislike it, seeing the cover and the protagonist looking similar to Naruto, and the whole "demon" boy being shunned by the people, it just seemed way to similar to Naruto and I just knew I'd judge it with unfair eyes. Let's hope my early assumptions were wrong.

Story 5/10

Without going into spoilers, or repeating the synopsis, the story is about a demon boy and his little sister that offer to get rid of the demon terrorizing a town.

The story is pretty straightforward and doesn't really do ...
