Story: superhero like (in a japanese way) but more realistic, justice is not one sided, and untill the end it's not clear what's good and bad.
Art: art is amazing, especially the character design, which is very unique. The section is very clean and the body are realistic and dinamic, creating captivating fight scenes.
Character: every characters is deeply described with their thoughts and actions, so you get very attached to them. Especially Jin and Kouga, expressing their feelings and thoughts during the story. They also well represent two sides of society and human nature.
Enjoyment: this manga kept my attention thanks to the action and the ... twists. Still i found the narration could be handled better, especially the final part which i found very hasty. Also, I would have preferred to feel more the anguish of this distopic world like in AOT or Gantz.

Zetman was a really interesting read, it's been years since I've seen a picture of it and I was like I'll definetely read this one

It's clearly inspired by Devilman and I honestly enjoy this fact. Each and every arc felt unique ,interesting and fresh .The last one was kinda lacking in some aspects ,but I think I'm satisfied with what I got from it ,though objectively speaking the story was not concluded entirely.

The art is great and unique ,probably one of the greatest I've seen.It also looks more like a western comic rather than a japanese.

The cast was pretty good ,especially Jin and Kouga,both are ... really well made and easily liked .I can't say I liked Konoha ,I consider her boring and not likeable.Regarding female characters though I really liked Hanako ,she was really fun to watch and had some great scenes.

Overall, Zetman is a great dark series with amazing art and cast,the ending can feel kinda off though, so keep that in mind

A manga with great art, but that's all it has to offer.

An uninteresting story with a shallow development that doesn't seem to go out of place.

Apart from the characters that are very one-dimensional. Seeing Kouga screaming "justice" all the time is so irritating, and development around this theme is nil.

The art is beautiful, that's a fact. The fights are also very well done.
But that's not all that makes a story good to follow.

Anyway, it wasn't a good read. But the main point that led me to drope was because the work had an open ending for an act 2 that never came...
I see no reason ... to follow a work that has no conclusion, frustrating any use of history.
