Uhhh the other review is pretty harsh, Kurosagi isn't that bad.
It's a shounen manga about, well, a swindler swindling swindlers. The manga follows a "swindler-of-the-week" format so there's no real overlying plot, just a new bad guy popping up every few chapters. I'll admit it's a little drawn out for 219 chapters but the protagonist is charming in his own boyish way and it's fun to see how he ends up saving the day in each arc.
Having said that, Kurosagi is NOT a psychological manga. The methods the protagonist uses generally revolve around finding loopholes in the law, not using psychological tricks. It's a fun

"It's not wrong to deceive, it's wrong to deceive the wrong target."
Kurosagi is a manga about con artists and its purpose is to educate readers on some of the possible ways a person can get scammed. The main character Kurosagi was a victim, losing his parents and complicating his past as a result. Filled with retribution (and a weird apathy at times), he works to undo other con artist's work. Now, the story is particularly lacking. It's not meant to be an epic narrative about the moral and ethical implications of swindling others (however sometimes it waxes so) but rather to educate the reader on the ...

Having read the whole manga 2 years ago (not an MAL member by then), and recently going through ts sequel, I wish to share an opinion of this manga after 2 years of condensing: this is an informative collection on operation and prevention of fraud techniques, but not a great story.
Plot: 7 The plot is simple: Kurosaki, a young swindler vowed only to cheat money out of fellow swindlers, investigate them through victims of the swindlers or his boss Katsuragi (operating his own "Katsura bar" as a disguise), then approaches the swindlers and cheats money out of them by no less than the amount the victims ...

Ok. This manga is freaking awesome. It is one of the few manga/anime that cater around economics, business and law.
Do not read this if -You want to see a romance manga -You want to see a psychological manga -You want to see a crime noir type of manga This is not any of those, those it does have some elements that are like that. You can kind of call this a heist manga. Most stories I see are always about god damn highschool crushes who only confess at the end after a hell long time of mishaps, harems and misunderstandings. THIS DOES NOT EVEN GO THAT ROUTE. The other type ... |
