Synopsis

After the death of his parents, a young Mirai Kakehashi is left in the care of his abusive relatives. Since then, he has become gloomy and depressed, leading him to attempt suicide on the evening of his middle school graduation. Mirai, however, is saved by a pure white girl named Nasse who introduces herself as a guardian angel wishing to give him happiness—by granting him supernatural powers and a chance to become the new God.

In order to earn the position, he must defeat 12 other "God Candidates" within 999 days. Soon, Mirai begins a struggle to survive as a terrifying battle royale erupts between himself and the candidates looking to obtain the most power in the world.

Platinum End is much more than it might seem at first.

True, you might be tempted to believe this show is just another one of those little tournament shows where people fight each other for a random price. And the first few chapters really are just that, but it's not until the latter half of the story that Platinum END really steps up and becomes a modern masterpiece for me.

What begins as a simple winner takes all tournament develops into a fully fledged political discussion about the nature of life, death, destiny, and morality. We meet many characters, each of them bringing up an ...

Mixed Feelings
After the terrible and untimely passing of his parents and younger brother, Mirai was forced to live with his violent uncle and aunt. Later, he makes the decision to terminate his life before being spared and granted a second opportunity by Nasse, one of the thirteen angels sent by God. She tells him that before the old God retires in nine hundred and ninety days, he must compete against twelve other God contenders. From this point on, Mirai must start again and determine whether or not his second shot at life is worth fighting for.

The characteristics of the characters were all very different from one ...

Honestly, it's a tedious read until the halfway point of the story. There’s nothing noteworthy in this part, aside from the incredibly bland protagonist and Hajime Sokotani—a man born poor and ugly (what was the author even trying to do with this character? I have no idea). After that, the manga takes a completely different turn and reveals its true nature: it abandons the absurd, ridiculous battles and embraces pure dialogue. And it’s in this dialogue that it becomes clear the author is an idiot—the story is utterly shallow and fails to delve meaningfully into any of the topics it touches on. Every attempt to ...
