Agathe's manga / #Good characters(1)

51 - 4.5 - if it was a zombie story, your think you’ve already seen it all The difference is that the humans are not zombified, instead, they are reduce to 50% of their size It does make enough difference to change the dynamic of the obstacles - in the same manner, the fact that all characters are granted one or more power from the start is providing interesting dynamics Lastly it a « game » setting « , with a superior being managing the hecatomb with new set of rules every now and as it’s obviously an adversary, it rewards humans killing each other’s (not great) - it’s still a mystery to ascertain if it might reward high survival numbers The characters are interesting th MC is a good guy, and his surrounding is nice : for a starter the fact that a granny a kid or a mum might become part of his team is really different and interesting The vision of a future can also be a very good narrative tool and is well used so far So while dark by nature, it’s still a very good read, so far now so angsty that it would be unbearable Good balance, good pace interesting and original, it’s a very nice surprise :)
