Art- 9/10
This manga would catch people's attention with its beautiful art. It's very consistent and gorgeous. Hands down, it's definitely a 9, if not 10. I love the way the Gods are drawn, especially Zeus.

Story- 8/10
For the story, indeed if it's your first time to read sensei's work, then you'd be confuse. It's kinda deep, you see. The questions that arise from the story is quite challenging to understand. Sometimes you can't understand what they are talking about. You have to really concentrate to get what's happening.

I also feel that the manga lacks a proper ending. Maybe it's because it's my first time reading ...

Well no one wrote a review yet, obviously as i am the only one so far. This is also my first review, i just thought i should mention that.
Hmm well to tell you the truth at times when i was reading Olimpos i was wondering if perhaps i was reading it wrong. Maybe i was. But there were some confusing parts with dialouge and frankly, with what the heck was going on. Well you can figure out the basics, that its about Ganymedes who was stolen away to a Minature Garden by Apollo. Where then Apollo visits him often to converse in ambigious conversations about ...

Ok, normally I do not write reviews and I do not believe in them either. I find them plain useless. Still, I need to talk about this story and so I shall write the third review.
The art is above average level at any case. What I disliked a bit was the lack of females and the fact all males looked like girls, but considering the shojo genre it’s perfect (although few times I could not distinguish the two main characters from each other due to the long hair and similar garments)
The story really deserves some attention. Honestly, it is not for everyone. It’s ...

[Forgive me for my messy-ness.. >< My first time writing a review on Myanimelist ;w;]

Here we go!:

Aki did a very, very good job on this series. However, I wouldn't recommend Olimpos to readers who are new to Aki's works.

Cons: Why? This series is extremely confusing to readers who aren't used to Aki's storytelling style. For instance, many readers complained how the plot was confusing and strange. But for other readers, like me, who have had experience reading works of Aki understood it fine. So the only way for one to understand the plot is to either read a lot of Aki/ get used to her ...

Olympos is a very interesting manga, the best word to describe it is "original". Being only 2 volumes long, it really doesn't leave a whole lot of room for the development of characters and story, but i had a hard time putting it down none the less. I'm not a big fan of mythology, but this certainly took an interesting viewpoint on the matter. If nothing else this manga should be credited for its absolutely beautiful artwork and characters. At first, i was positive that both Ganymede and Apollo were of the female persuasion....when their gender was clarified, i decided they could be equally ...

I read this manga long ago,but I couldn't stop thinking about it,so I decided to write this review to help other people...
This manga is one of the rare manga that I really liked,because I don't read manga much. I prefer anime...
Story of this manga is Great,I find it really unique. Everybody who loves Greek Mythology should read this,I mean it's just perfect. Greek Gods are main Characters here and Hades is sarcastic one,just hilarious.
Art is Great,too. I don't have much to say about art,it's just good one. Characters are nice looking and other things are good.
I enjoyed when I read this manga,I read it ...

The life of the gods is eternal and in the immense eternity of their existence they have to make time to not get bored. What activities do they do to not get bored? What are the thoughts and worries that keep them busy? Is there anything that makes sense?

The first thing that strikes me about the manga is its art, I admit that I started reading it thinking "What a pretty girl" and then I exclaimed "Ahh! it's a boy" hahaha. Really the manga has very nice designs, at the beginning it is hard to differentiate the characters, however, you will recognize them all ...
