Preliminary (18/? chp)
Now to start of, since i give my (personal) scores solely based on my enjoyment, on my list this manga gets a 10, since him enjoying it that much. Since this is a review for everyone, i'll try to be more "formal" in a way.

Lets start with the story, the setting itself is almost cliché, but that doesn't necessarily make it bad, just rather overused, but then again, nowadays i find it almost impossible to have something original, theres just that much content. The plot is simple, vampires manipulate a virus that wipes out everyone who is 13 or older, our MC is a young ...

Okay this is the first time I've ever written a review so I'm not exactly sure what to say but here goes nothing.

So first off, the story. I gave it an 8 cause the story really got me hooked up after chapter 15 and it's going on great. I'm not gonna go any further into the contents cause I might spoil you, BUT... The introduction, the "premise", however, is indeed overused, which was a bit of a turndown for me at first, but the story behind it is a lot more original and mysterious than I anticipated, I REALLY enjoyed the mysteries and the twisted-ness ...

Take "Attack on Titans" minus its intricate plot, replace the titans with pretty-looking vampires, add a touch of queer-baiting to make fujoshis go wild and there you have it. "Seraph of the End" is riddled with overheated clichés, poor characterization, bland storylines, clunky dialogues, predictable twists and awkward tone shifts. I certainly didn't go into this manga thinking it would be the most imaginative dystopia (I was warned about the lazy, underdeveloped premise), but in spite of my efforts to look past some of its flaws, I was inevitably put off by the old, recycled formula that has already made countless other series in this ...

This review may contain some spoilers.

One day a mysterious virus appeared on the Earth and killed almost everyone. Only under the 13 years old children could survive, but then the vampires appeared and they made every children their livestock.

Story: 9/10

This story follows Hyakuya Yuuichirou life after he successfully escaped from the vampires and he was taken to the human's city where he realized that the vampires were lying to him. He joined the Japanese Imperial Demon Army to become strong for his revenge which is to kill every vampire who killed his family.

Art: 9/10

Yamamoto Yamato did a really good job with the art. We ...

Owari no Seraph, or Seraph of the End.
Honestly, I was brought here by Mokushiroku Alice, seeing that the plot authors are the same.
Story- 8
The story is where most people lose interest. Honestly, that's to be expected.
The Apocalypse Virus appeared, wiping out almost all human adults. As if that wasn't enough, Vampires came from the shadows, enslaving the remaining humans.
Meet Yuu, a boy who dreams of killing every vampire.
The series gets into the main story pretty quickly. Very quickly, his mindless bloodlust
turns to a need for revenge. Honestly, it's a lot like Attack on Titan, but at the same time, very different.
Art- 9

I ran across this title while browsing Books A Million for a new series. At first, I was sure I was going to buy Shokugeki no Soma, but Seraph caught my eye and I decided to take a chance on it. I'm glad I did.

[WARNING: SLIGHT SPOILERS AHEAD]

STORY- 8/10

First of all, I know this manga is cliched as all hell. In fact, it reminds me of what would happen if you tossed the characters from Blue Exorcist into the world of Attack on Titan. However, cliche doesn't necessarily mean bad. Cliche works if the story can be pulled off ...

This is a manga which is okayish. A lot of it is very cliche, the characters lack a great deal of originality, the female portrayal is poor- the list goes on and on.

The main character starts off painful to watch in their angry shouneness, but one good thing about this manga is its portrayal of the main character Yuu and his counterpart Mika. Yuu starts off painful to look at with his horribly cliche shounen angriness, but his character development is admirable and touching in the way he becomes more emotionally balanced. Mika in himself is an amazingly well written character and the chemistry ...

This manga has kept me on my toes and interested enough to look forward to its once-a-month release.

Story: 9/10
Simply, it is something new. It is something different. The pacing is fast enough to keep me involved and appropriate for its spaced releases, but also slow enough that I have to dig in and theorize (big bonus!). I'll talk more about why I like the story in the Character section.

Art: 8/10
This is pretty self-explanatory. The art is consistent and I have no trouble deciphering who is who. The mangaka is very experienced with action, humor, emotion, and anything in between. I would have given it a ...

As other people have already pointed out the story is quite cliche, very AoT kind of thing. However despite the setting we are initially given, there was potential for twists and turns to turn Owari into its own story worth reading. However that opportunity was massively wasted. A couple good chapters here and there but I'd recommend only if you are willing to stick it out through really bad segments.

Story 3/10
There seems to be a direction and during the first couple chapters the story is pretty character driven. We are given a protagonist who wants revenge against the vampires for killing his family, however as ...

One of the best manga I've ever read, if not the best.

Story: 10/10
The story is absoutely amazing and everytime makes me keep reading, until I realize how much time I've spent reading.
It takes place in the future, where a virus suddenly appeared and killed every person who's over the age of 14. At the same time humans got attacked by vampires, which lead to chaos, at least in Japan (it's still unknown how other countries are doing as far as I know).
The kids were taken in by the vampires and used as "life stock" - they basically collected their blood everyday in order ...

This a great series that have one of the most favorite icons in histories, humans vs. vampires vs. demons. The story has many humans fighting vampires by using these demons weapons. The art is one of the best thing of this manga, it has beautiful backgrounds and amazing definition towards the characters and the environment. The powers of the characters are somewhat unique and very stylish looking in where you be amaze with how the characters may use there power to protect themselves. If you are one big fan of vampires fighting humans like myself, i recommend this manga, it very well made even for ...

Intro:
(Please forgive me, this is my first MAL review.)
~Slight Spoilers Follow~
Owari no Seraph (English: Seraph of the End) may at first seem like your average action manga series with a super angry protagonist, but don't let the exterior fool you. It has more depth into it than you think.

Story: 9/10
Seraph of the End has a story that starts of with a unique setting. A mysterious virus that kills anyone over 13. Vampires who have been in hiding seize that chance to come to the surface and try to gain power amidst the destruction. Yuu and Mika, two central characters in the story, are captured ...

"Owari no Seraph" has a good combination of serious and funny moments that makes for an enjoyable read. The moments don't conflict with each other, and the story feels like it flows well so far. There is a nice balance of mystery throughout that keeps you thinking, and overall the story gives off an old school FMA-like vibe.

Personally, I think the main character is a bit too much of a shounen manga protagonist and it doesn't feel like his character matches the vibes the series gives off. Even though this is flagged as shounen series, it feels like it is something that would appeal more ...

If not for the vampires, I would drop this manga a long time ago. Story is idk, weird? There are lots of twist and it's getting annoying xD. After Nagoya incident, the story start off nicely, introducing vampires from overseas, the twist, and hinting vampire's ancestry stuffs. HOWEVER, I was rlly furious to see plot twist in like EVERY chapter urgh :d.

I love every characters other than the main guys (yuu, mika, guren, etc, except shinoa ofc) I like guren at first, but as the manga progressed, I started to despise him, I find him so annoying, selfish, stupid. Yuu is literally Guren v.2. I ...

To start off, this is my first review.

*THIS REVIEW MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS so feel free to click away if you did not read this manga*

I would say that the story is quite okay and the vampire and humans fighting each other is a good plot but i have to be completely honest, that i found the family and friends theme quite cheesy and quite tiring. If you are not okay with that kind of theme and you are repulsed by it, i do not recommend this manga.

I personally really enjoy this manga and am very interested in keeping up with it. I love the art and characters, and the story is really picking up. I still liked it better then AoT (the super-hyped first season) was still coming out (way back in 2012). I can now say the genres are different enough I don't compare them anymore. I still really enjoy this manga and I am most definitely keeping up with it. I really like the relationship between the Yuu and Mika, and recently Shinoa has been climbing as one of my faves. I like Guren, he's an interesting spin on ...

I liked the series from the first time I saw the anime even knowing that it probably wasn't adapted as well as it should.
Reading the manga has been quite interesting for the most part, I think it has been declining with the passing of the chapters, reaching a point that right now I consider that they are prolonging it for the sole reason of selling.

It has several good points such as a fairly well worked story, some characters that offer more than you could expect at first and for some, such as my case, an entertaining theme.

On the other hand, there are characters that as ...

(This is my first review! English isn't my first language, hope it makes sense)

So I'll be upfront, I picked up the manga where the 2nd season of the anime left off. I'm not one for classic shounen anime, unless the art is really captivating and there's some good humor.

A lot has happened since that point, and man oh man have the past 15 chapters been such eye candy. The past ~5 especially, in terms of art. It's improved a lot when looking at initial chapters, and I understand from there why people would drop it.

My favorite part about this series is that no character has ...

minor chapter five spoilers

I will admit the initial premise is overdone, humanity is wiped out by a disease, random foe comes forward and protagonist feels the need to kill all of them because they hurt him etc

without going into deep spoiler territory, the story, while being complicated can feel overwhelming at times but this is far from a lighthearted series so that is to be expected.

While I find myself relating to both of the main characters (Yuichiro and Mickeala) I can’t help but feel detached due to how the writer just wants to progress the plot by letting Yuchiro talk his way out ...

Owari no Seraph
So... probably one of the best vampire-themed manga out there.

To start with, although the action takes place in one country, we're shown other countries as well, and that's a fat plus. After all, the disaster happened all over the planet and not, as is usually the case...

The manga also has an interesting twist, as you might think that the goal of the manga is to exterminate all vampires. Well, as is often the case, good versus evil. That doesn't mean you're wrong, as that's exactly how it goes. It's a secondary goal, you might say, the main one is much ...
