Dai Dark, Vol. 1 by Q Hayashida
4.5
adventurous dark funny lighthearted tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

A story about a space-travelling boy named Zaha Sanko, and his companion, dark paggy Avakian. Zaha Sanko is infamous for his dark powers and a rumor that his bones can grant any wish. 

I was pleasantly surprised to see much of Q Hayashida’s  lighthearted character and humor remained the same. That is something I appreciated from her previous work, Dorohedoro. 

The style is also similarly unique and grim. I adore the character designs.  

I do wish there was a wider cast of characters, but perhaps I can expect more from the next volume
