Flaws of characters a main focus: No

I like this take on a robin hood sort of detective. I like how the perpetrator receives back what they dealt and the people are able to get what justice they can from the spoiled and corrupt nobles.

I’m definitely all in on the manga craze right now, and I loved this one! I’ve never read a Sherlock Holmes story, but I’ve watched numerous of movie and tv adaptions, and I just love sir Arthur Conan Doyles world and characters. This manga is obviously based on the works by this author, where we get to follow James Moriarty, before he became Sherlocks number one nemesis. How he grew up, what drives him and his true passion. Taking down the evil, rich aristrocrats and bringing justice to the ”normal” people who can’t fend for themselves against these individuals. Each chapter was a new ”case” for Moriarty to take upon himself (and his accomplices) to right their wrongs and eliminate 🔪 I never really thought I would root for a unaliver, but I can’t lie, I really am 😂🙏🏼

I loved every single one of the main characters, and I have a feeling this is gonna be a crazy journey. There’s 17 volumes out so far, with at least two more announced for next year, so I have a good number to go through! Sadly my library doesn’t have them, so I do need to buy them…My bankaccount doesn’t really like me right now 😅💸 Thankfully christmas is coming up 🎄🎅🏼🎁

Un manga avec trois frères déterminés à faire tomber la noblesse corrompue ? Je signe direct.

C'est une relecture et j'aime toujours autant ce manga et ses personnages. Les frères Moriarty ont un esprit bien tordu et sont loin d'être parfait, mais ceux qu'ils affrontent méritent bien toutes ces souffrances. Ils sont flippant mais j'adore !

Pernah ga kamu bertanya-tanya alasan dibalik Moriarty memilih jadi Konsultan Kriminal padahal dia punya kemampuan untuk sama-sama jadi Konsultan Detektif kaya Sherlock?
Bagaimana kalo ternyata alasan dia masuk akal dan ga seburuk yang kamu bayangkan?
Apakah alasan dia bisa menjustifikasi semua perbuatannya?
