Noblesse

Complete | son jae ho,Lee Gwang-Su | 2008 released

Truly a considerable master piece, this story keeps you at the edge of your seat. I love the beginning of Noblesse all the way to the middle of the Traitors Clan Arc with Roctis Karvel. I love how logical the power level of Noblesse was and how Rai stood at the pinnacle of that. I love how wild and uncontrollable Frankenstein is yet he choose to serve Rai which shows the depth and bond of their relationship. I love the fact that Rai is weak to technology and all the silly dry humor that come with Noblesse. But most of all, I love the fact that the characters are complex and thoroughly explore. Even the villain characters has their own backstory and motives. But all of that begin to change after Roctis died. The power logic became inconsistent. The villains became those stereotypical villains that are just pure evil. The humor became melodramatic rather than dry, and most of all, the characters stop growing and just remain the same for the rest of the story. I like Noblesse a lot but the latter half of the series could have been better. In my opinion, I think Rai should have died. Rather than just conveniently transfer life force into him, it would be more logical that he die due to using too much of his life force. That's because that's was what the story was building up to. Also, I honestly thought that Frankenstein would be the last boss and not Crombel. The reason for that is because the story has been foreshadowing that Frankenstein might one day get taken over by the dark spear. He killed Crombel after getting consume by the dark spear. As he wreck havoc onto the world, Rai would then be reborn from the ashes like a Phoenix to stop Frankenstein. (From my perspectives though) This story has so much potential left. I generously admire the authers work.
