Kurohime

Post by Eve »

Because I fell in love with this sad love story... http://www.onemanga.com/Kurohime/

XDDDD

At first I thought it would just be action manga like Naruto, or Bleach, but it's totally different, the first 9 chpters are basica introductions, but later chapters are intense, especially 15 and up, every quote of her melancholy is killing me... it becomes a very emotional stroy that is no where sappy and her purpose has become so much greater
Spoiler:
Synopsis
A young boy is saved by a mysterious gunfighter who uses magical bullets. She is the greatest magician in the world but disappears shortly after saving him. Having fallen in love with her, he trains to become a gun fighter and ten years later, his search comes to an end but his adventure has just begun.

When I first read it a few months ago, the early chapters felt insanely repetitive.  Like, up until Azura appears (chapter 6) every chapter / pair of chapters has almost the same pattern of events.  Keeping in mind there's a chapter 0a, 0b, and 0c, that's essentially chapter 9 at 50 pages per chapter.

After that, things get insanely good for a while, and then slow down again after random mcSamurai appears.  It picks up again a little later when they fight Yukionna.  It needs to finish though, it feels like it's been dragging for a while, but probably still has at least another 8 volumes to go (in my opinion)

Yeah.. at first I got a little tired too, then starting from River of Love down to the Samurai dude was good... starting from the past was ok for me, but in vol 15... I think it was just filler, However, i heard Vol 16 is like almost to the resolution, but I could not buy it GRRRR...
Spoiler:
Hmmm... well, I'm not sure, from where I'm standing, it looks like about 3 more volumes... since she's getting pretty close and already got 3/4 spirits...

Volume 16 is the resolution to the arc that's been going on for... lord knows how long now.

Spoiler:
She has 3?  I thought she only had Genbu and Byakko?  I know Suzaku gave her the enchantment or whatever, but I think Suzaku is technically #5, since Hime needs the other four's powers before releasing her.  Either way, she needs at least Seiryuu and to return to Suzaku.  Plus, she needs to kill a handful of Gods and save Zero/Rei.

I've only read spoilers for it.  The scanlation sites only have the start of 14, but people have posted spoilers for 16.  America doesn't even have volume 16 solicited yet, with volume 15 not due until January.  Hell, volume 13 doesn't come out until next week (officially).

started reading it.

In the middle (well basically the beginning) of prologue 2. I approve of the fact that so far I can't take this story that seriously. That's how all good manga work. (no sarcasm)

I also approve of the fact that the main character is acting like BoJiggler (except this isn't trying to be funny).
