KENGAN OMEGA SERIES
I might change the review as the series goes on or delete it altogether if the series actually steers into the right direction and my points won't be valid anymore.ĮDIT. I kept some issues and explanations of them out of this review because I would need to spoil huge parts of KA and KO. I am saying this so that you know that everything I wrote in here came from a very emotional place and that Kengan has influenced my life.ĭon't let my review stop you from reading KA or KO, both of them are absolutely worth reading even if KO is of questionable quality as of now (Though as I said, it seems we are finally heading back into the right direction with recent chapters). It kickstarted my interest in reading mangas and in martial arts. Know that I absolutely adored KA (and still do) as if it was the best thing in the world. Not AOT kind of terrible, just terrible on it's own right.Īs of now I see the light of hope for the series because recent chapters were good, surprisingly really good compared to what I would call a "festival of "mediocreness"". I won't be going into details because I don't want to spoil it but it's just terrible. With KA you had room to breath in between the fights, to see how the characters develop and what's going on behind the scenes.īut those two things aren't the worst offenses, the worst offense is how author had this beautiful conclusion to the story in KA but decided to completely crossed it out with two chapters in KO. The fights are incredibly predictable and there's little space given for character development outside of few flashbacks and backstories for every character introduced. I wouldn't have much problem with it if it wasn't an ongoing issue for more than half of the manga's run. In what would appear to be absolute genius of Sandrovich, he decided to bench him and show him from time to time for two or three panels. What would you do with him as a writer? Continue his adventure? Expand on his character and his past or whatever? Well. Imagine creating a likeable protagonist with a very good character development, who wishes to catch up to the rest of the cast, giving him a training arc to show his improvement and development as a member of the crew. Did it met my expectations? It exceeded the expectations with flying colors, the characters had great chemistry going between them, the art was amazing as always and overall the manga was promising. I absolutely loved every page of it, every single panel, once I've heard there was a sequel I knew that once again I would be hooked. I stumbled upon Kengan Ashura on Netflix back in 2020, I binged it, then I binged the manga. Lowered score to 3 due reasons I will mention down below. Shoutouts to lewando321 for proof reading.ĮDIT2. This review contains very slight spoilers.
