Princess Resurrection Manga
怪物王女 Kaibutsu Oujo Title: Princess Resurrection Mangaka: Yasunori Mitsunaga Serializes in: Shounen Sirius I have read the first two chapters of the manga, and I must say this is such a good title fill with butcher and gore comedy at its gold with a macabre story lead by a sexy and dark-moe princess. Synopsis. Quote:
This title is shounen action, gothic dark, gore comedy, and having many moe elements. Basically, Hiro seems to be stranded for eternity to the Princess's side and must aid her to fend off the assassins sent by her vile siblings. The letdown on this bargain is that Hiro most of the time becomes the punching bag or should I say the butcher bag. The Princess displays and exerts highly unorthodox ways to fight the intruders, including motor-fueled chainsaws, gasoline and dynamite, any sorts of razor-sharp objects; any weapon to hack, slash, dismember, blow, grind, pulverize, behead, pound her enemies until all become chunks of flesh. You see this is the comedy gold of the story, because Hiro also becomes the misfortunate victim to the princess antics and suffers one to other accident on a regular basis, ending him with either some of his limbs separated and having to be sewn back. As you may or may not know, an anime TV series is on production and to be released this year, likely the spring season. The manga has already been licensed by Del Rey. |

I read the first 3 volumes online. If you are expecting the typical "Boy saved by girl, boy falls in love with girl, girl falls in love with boy, they get together" plotline, then it isn't present in this series, at least not from the 3 volumes I have read. They have barely developed anything more than a masterxservant relationship, and I am not sure if that will change.
If you are looking for the "Boy saved by girl, boy falls in love with girl, girl falls in love with boy, they get together"plot, you should look in other places, such as Kurohime. |

I read a review on this about a guy who becomes an emortal servent to a vampier and then gets killed over and over and over again...I just burst out laughing and had to order it.

There's 4 volumes out and the most current chapter in Shonen Sirius is 23.
Overall this isn't particularly original or outstanding, but it's entertaining for what it is. What really sucks the anime had to get horribly toned down for some reason. |
