so basically theos did everything he did so that he could be together with astarte forever and ever and evarrrrr
guess she reallly is just that good in bed u_u
i guess astarte just never liked him / wanted a world with people living in it so good/evil could somewhat cohabitate. *shrugs

though rather strange/winding/confusing/vague i liked it a lot. it was a good ride.
-nods-

the ending is weird but I guess is perfect for this kind of manga, but it could be better

I loved the ending~ Yes, it was odd, but I mean, if it was normal it wouldn't have really fit the series.

well, the last few chapters of this manga were better for me. I had trouble caring about any of the characters until near the end. End was too vague and confusing though, so minus one point for that. 5/10.

And definitely the most bizarre manga I've ever read. Sort of the story of Adam and Eve using the motif of Little Red Riding hood with the visuals of Hellsing.

WTF dd I just read?!?!?! It went from prepubescent sex/rape to shooting people point black then some ridiculous angel/demon story. This manga needs to be classified as guro/hentai.

No it doesn't. It had a semi-coherent plot.

I thought the story overall was strangely fascinating and the ending fit in well with the rest. I mean it's not like the story wasn't bizarre to begin with. Okay the love as a motive thing is overused... very overused... but I don't think we should blame this particular instance for that.

It was really weird, didn't feel attached to the characters or anything, but Akazukin's passing was kind of sad.

This was weird but mildly interesting to read.
I feel like making Akazukin a loli was really unnecessary and the sex scenes ended up irrelevant for the plot. However, for a disgusting and disturbing semi-hentai manga, it was entertaining. Not too long, not too short. A few cool fights and some plot twists that didn't make a lot of sense but I don't regret reading this.
The best I could compare this with is Hellsing, a weird take on Hellsing. This also seemed like those shitty gory and shock-value anime, except with an actual decent plot and characters that I cared a little bit.

I'll probably never recommend this to a friend unless he's some psycho though.

Well, that was kinda shitty. I though the manga started pretty strong and creative with the main character and over the top sex and gore, it was simple minded fun. But then it tried to become Evangelion, and it failed. It's confusing, but also kind of boring with all this shitty dialog, despite the high amount of action involved. But I could never feel the stakes, and the characters were pretty bland. Like who the fuck is the cat? Or the hobo-Spike Spiegel guy? I feel like the ending was supposed to be sad, but I was just glad it was over.

Overall not the worst thing I've read, it definitely had its moments. I will give it an average rating.

Tons of really cool and really ballsy things, with a story that almost matters in between. Character design is fantastic.

LoL I guess that was bad? xD The plot became over saturated with the amount of what the fuck and random outcomes specially after the second half, I quickly lost interest.

On top of that the ending was unsatisfying and empty.


The only good thing about it was Vivi.

Interesting, very good and sad chapter!
RIP  Akazukin/Astarte...
Overall Tokyo Akazukin is a very good manga, different, out of the ordinary, without cliché!
