This is my first review, so I'll try to be as clear as possible. I apologize for my weird English, and I hope that it will be helpful for some of you.
Yuureitou is probably one of the rare manga I instantly fell in love with. Litterally. So my review might be biased, but I hope it'll make you want to read this manga.
Story - 10
The plot of Yuureitou is really outstanding. I cannot say much because that would be spoiling it,but there is everything,and the story isn't only focused on one place,which is a great thing,because you never get tired of it.
There is no
...
repetition, every event is unique. Also,the chapters aren't on the same scheme all the way. That's the strong point of the manga.Althrought there are lots of element it the story, there isn't any inconsistancy that could ruin the whole thing. I really enjoyed the 53 chapters I read so far. There wasn’t any time when the story felt like going slower, which is the case in a lot of manga of mystery genre. There were also some fun parts, even when the situation was terrible. The action scenes are really intense and the inquiries are full of rebound.
Art - 9
The art in Yuureitou is outstanding and unique. I've never seen something like this in other manga of that type. It's a realistic type of art, and not only the characters, but the backgrounds are also truly amazing.
Character – 9
Yuureitou story is essentially centered on Tetsuo, which is the most important character in the story. There is a lot of mystery around him mostly because of his past, and his personality is quite weird. He can be really nice, and then become really selfish and cruel. Also, he is really smart, and resolves most of the situation on his own.
But, the other main character, Taichi is probably as interesting as Tetsuo. Why? Because if at first he seems to be a good for nothing and to be used to emphasize Tetsuo’s charisma, he evolves during the story. At first, he is a real coward, and only let Tetsuo solve the problems, but then step by step he starts to think on his own, and to try to help Tetsuo, the other characters or even himself.
Supporting characters have also quite a good developpement. Maybe we know more about their past that about Tetsuo’s or Taichi’s. That’s why I didn’t rated it 10 here, because I want to know more about them. (even if Tetsuo’s past is actually what guides the story…)
Enjoyment – 10
As I said already, once I started to read it, I fell in love with this manga. It had been a long time since I saw something as good as this thing. I mean, everything is really catchy, and I don’t have any problem re-reading it several times, which isn’t the case with all mangas. I really want to see it’s end but, on the other hand, I don’t want it to end. I think that my first reaction was something like “OH MY GOD THIS IS THE BEST THING I EVER READ” (actually that’s not the best thing I ever read, but nevermind, I was in my fangirling mode so I can say whatever I was), and I think that it will be the reaction of most of you who are going to read it.
That’s why the last thing I want to say is: Go for it! You’ll regret it if you don’t,and have a great time if you do !
