It's got an interesting premise and sets up lots of mysteries within the first few chapters that keep you guessing. I wouldn't really categorize it as a typical shounen, mostly because it doesn't really feel like the stereotypical shounen. It doesn't have the same predetermined structure where the character trains to beat a boss type character and then faces another boss type character and this continues on for many, many chapters. (Just as a side note, I love shounen manga, so I wouldn't mind if that was the case, but that really isn't the structure of this manga) I think this feeling stems from the fact that it doesn't really have the same separating arc structure of a shounen; all the plot things bleed together.

Here we have the same trope, but it takes center stage. This guy wants to kill the cutest girl in school, but he also wants her to live. So this cognitive dissonance is at the heart of the story, and what it might represent is admirable. I have just seen it so many times. In other cases, the female can be killed again and again, so the male impulse to kill can be satiated while the female gets to live, or grow stronger (Tomie). Character... Fair I guess. Nothing special. Pretty much like every other main hero. Lame and bland high school student with a obsessive trait. It's sorta like, you know who everyone is before they are properly introduced. Not a bad thing really, but as you know what to expect, the character development (where there is a pretty good one) becomes poof. It loses it's meaning. awalnya kamishiro berniat mengungkapkan perasaannya kepada teman masa kecil sekaligus cinta pertamanya, hanasono mika, tapi semua berubah ketika perasaannya bercampur dengan naluri membunuh. disepanjang volume 1, kamishiro menahan diri untuk tidak berfantasi mengenai darah dan raut kesakitan hanasono. dia pikir, menghindari hanasono dan melakukan percobaan bunuh diri akan mempermudah keadaan. tapi cerita tidak berjalan sesederhana itu, ada banyak rintangan yang menanti, termasuk bertemu dan melawan orang-orang lain yang terinfeksi.So, unless you are into seeing female bodies mutilated, and not even random bodies, but a body of a character with whom you’re supposed to have a positive emotional connection – you should probably stay away from this manga. The imagery here goes way beyond what you would expect from the demographic or mainstream manga in general. This work also doesn’t offer any supporting structure for this, like horror does, nor does it belong to genres where it’s par of the course (hentai, eroguro). It’s just a damned usual power trip shounen with zero subtlety, which thinks it can pull off torture porn. Character development: I don't think we ever saw any development. I guess the glasses guy learnt to forgive the one who hurt his love and to control his bloodlust, and the girl was starting to leave his ex behind and started loving the protagonist. Is it really a spoiler? It's obvious the second time we see her.

Alright, so I finally finished Konya wa tuski. It's only 35 chapters long, but I say "finally" because I had to struggle to reach the end. Not because it drags on, but because it wasn't much of an enjoyable read. I honestly considered dropping this manga many times, but I continued going since I felt I just had to write a review for it. Per questi motivi... mi sacrificherò e continuerò a leggere nonostante tutto, sperando in un miracolo. I just started vol. 2, and I’m getting the feeling this is going to be a Cain/Abel out of Sandman dynamic, where the girl can regenerate and sometimes lets the protagonist kill her 🤦‍♂️ i☆Ris the Movie - Full Energy!! - Anime Film Teaser Visual Revealed at i☆Ris Live Stage in Anime NYC & i☆Ris First Performance in New York Successfully Completed tl;dr: A manga with a decent horror focused start that becomes a lot worse when it becomes action oriented.After Chapter 14 the story shifts, bringing in more drama and suspense. At this point the character growth and story progression begins to slow down. The main focus is rebuilding the manga to shift the story from the initial outbreak to finding Hanazono, along with the two groups fighting for power. The blood and gore gets toned down a bit, to really focus redirecting the story. So basically right after the start it’s what this manga focuses on. We have bog standard everything – a main goody two shoes hero, The Mastermind (so as to not spoil who they are, though at this point I guess you don't really care about spoilers). When we are given a hint about his identity in chapter 14 I just found myself yawning. If you have read any manga similar to this, you would inmediately know who he is. It's not a surprise at all, and his character is unoriginal. He is the usual "bastard" character. His visual design is plain too. He is shorter than average though! 1.5/10 seseorang yang terjangkit bloodlust memiliki kekuatan 2x lebih kuat daripada manusia normal. karakteristik dari kekuatannya berbeda tergantung dengan keahlian dan situasi. kamishiro bukan superhero, karena yang dipikirkannya hanya niat membunuh. tapi ketika keadaan berubah menjadi pelik, kamishiro berbalik menggunakan kekuatannya untuk kebaikan meskipun mungkin saja keputusannya sia-sia oleh twist yang surealis serta berdarah-darah. Art 8/10 - Nice and a fine art style, definitely a redeeming feature. However, certain faces often look like clones of each other, so negative for that.
