Suzume's manga / #Shounen(3)

That was.... I can't really describe it. The last few days I've kept reading this manga, and I'm truly extremely satisfied how it ended but not that it ended. Even though there were a couple of depressing scenes, I just couldn't stop reading and I'm glad I did so. But to the end it was kind of... The band needed really long to get famous and successful, then... the finally overcome all these obstacles and it ends already after two or three volumes... It bothers me a bit since I would have liked to see the reactions of the world to this new band. But that was kind of left out. Hmm... still, it was a fantastic read and I would gladly recommend it to anyone. I forgot to mention, even though it's tagged as romance it wasn't central at all. I'm glad it's like that, since it would have disturbed the flow of the manga otherwise. Actually... Now, after thinking of it a while, I've come to the conclusion that there is missing very much... It's hard to exactly depict what... but, it feels rushed at the end. The "end" is perfect; It's like the band members say farewell of the readers. But the part between the Avalon festival and the Grateful Sound festival feels... weird to me. and too short. Kind of depressing

For me a good art style is number one priority when reading a comic and, as anyone can see, in this case it's not exactly about pretty faces. But!! that's in no way negative. As an artist myself I can see this art style's good points. And it's really the fast action scenes and the extreme expression (especially the boy's in vol 6-7 against nesuwhatevs). At first, I was a bit prepossessed against the art style and it's wide big eyes (particularly frost boy and his sis/love interest ....) but it kinda grow on me (not the eyes but the rest, I still can't stand them' big eyes). But honestly, this webtoons strength is NOT the art style. It it's story. Which I completely got hooked on and read in one day. The characters are great too. and oh, oh man, those plot twists!!! Even though this story has quite a few... well, I'm not sure if I should call them "plot holes", since it's just so much new stuff and constructs at once which didn't get explained yet, which lets the story look a tad weak in the end, but I guess I just need to read the sequel first.... all in all I recommend this story to readers who like espers/dimensions/amazing fighting scenes/tenseness/anti-government-movements/social criticism, etc. it kind of inspired me, too.
