Until Death Do Us Part
Description: Blind guy who kicks ass and protects a little girl Genre: Action, Seinen Scanlation Group: Bakafish Its just started being scanlated, and with only 3 chapters out, its really! good. It being worked on by the same guy who done the Spriggan manga (TAKASHIGE Hiroshi), and the art is by DOUBLE-S. Although you know some could write it off, with the Description.. because of the whole 'protecting a girl' but here its so well done it feel kinda original. Please at least check out a few chapters. What interests me the most about the manga is that the main character is Blind.. and he still kicks the ass of everybody Art is Fantastic, the action and moments of the charaters are smooth, plus it helps having likeable interesting! characters. |

Until Death Do Us Part
Summary from Onemanga:
Quote:
The manga reads and looks like a Hollywood action flick, except the manga has more plot and more science know how behind it than the average action flick. Only 13 chapters have been released so far, which is too bad since the plot moves pretty fast and pretty smoothly. And of course there is a ton of ass kicking going on by a blind swordsman, who is not quite as bad off as you first think. Anyway, I think I am just going to shut up and back off and allow the manga to speak for itself.

I have to agree with yongshun on that.
Any ideas on what the Spoiler for Bad Guys Plans:
I am looking forward to Mamuro having a true challenge pretty soon. Oh, and I love how inaccurate everyone is with pistols, that's so like real life.

^ That's quite a big spoiler...
Well so I took a look at this series and I find it strangely attractive That one man siege on the yakuza group from Mamoru (lolz at the name too, classic pun ) was GARly. There seems to be a lot of "superpower groups" from this series which makes it especially interesting. I also enjoy the science bits too like how Mamoru's blade is able to cut through bonds. It's impossible to thing of something like that happening in reality (well, with our current tech). Though up to the current scanned chapters I've noticed a big lack of scenes with the girl (the fact that I can't even remember her name is a point XD).

Just read up to chapter 3 quite an interesting manga we have here. A blind man whos not so blind with a little help and a little girl whose future forecasting ability is about 90% what an odd yet very interesting duo. So far i like what i see there is something about a blind person kicking the living hell out of baddies for the sake of a lil un. Well on to the next chapter

I don't get it either, probably because there isn't
A: Fan-service, or at least not enough to qualify B: It is not a shounen C: I have no idea, but you don't see people raving about Red Eyes either (which is a hard-core, realistic look at the development of mecha, and its implementation on the battlefield, and has a lead character a lot like Mamoru as well) Spoiler for Chp.16:

I loled at his tech partner's expression.
Especially Sierra's "Don't you dare tell him about it.". I'm only up to chapter 16 but that lil girl will have an interesting life growing up. Quote:
Also that the assistants accusing the Author he sees himself in Mamuro thus his fantasies. His caricature running away denying it. |

Im actually liking the series quite a bit. Im up to chapter 16 and have not lost interest and honestly with the premise of a pre-cog girl and her blind swordsman bodyguard this is a great premise for an anime or at least a couple of OVA's. Im also liking the the squad that they have put together. Especially the women who lost her child to a terrorist attack she rules.

Spoiler for Random Chara's and Chapter covers (Hot Chicks):
Categories: action, adventure, Seinen Author: Takashige Hiroshi Artist: Double-S (they are one in the same) Plot: In any case, the series itself is about a blind guy and a girl who is precognitive of things to come. There are terrorists who wants to use her powers for nefarious reasons. So as a means of escape... She teams up with A blind guy who works for a secret organization that uses criminals to catch criminals...Known as "Blade" Quote:
~Hijikata uses Glasses/Shades that are attached to his cane/Katana. Using light (even starlight) and sound they project images onto his retina's. Using explosives or any kind of noise maker he can increase his range of vision. The glasses allow him to dodge and cut and bullets, as well as dodge attacks and scope out weapons and enemies. He sees like this ~Hijikata's sword is thin enough to pass between molecules it has mono-molecular coating to reinforce the blade. It can cut virtually anything The artwork, the action, the story is kick ass. If you like Anti-Hero's that have no qualms with dismemberment...this is the manga for you.... It rules beyond belief, it blends mature content with scientific theory but doesn't weigh down the storyline. Please spread the word, and read this manga nao!

Awesome setting for a long-running manga with a deep plot! Looks like all the Hijikatas out there are cool, but what happens if someone just knocks off his glasses? (not that they'd have the time to get so close, just saying)

I want it to be animated too...but then I think about the butchering of KuroKami...and tremble in fear. (It went from Seinen to Shounen)
It's kickass right? I told you.... Damn you and that perverted avatar...I can't concentrate (It's already got over 9 volumes) Last edited by hakisak; 2009-02-17 at 13:07. |

Mamoru is 100% hardcore...I've seen hundreds of people cracking teeth but nobody ever did that before :O He's definitely the #1 badass blind guy in the mangaverse. BTW! how old is Haruka, she doesn't look more than 15 to me.
EDIT:she's actually 12 0_0 Last edited by Kafriel; 2009-02-17 at 10:12. |
