nightshade_novels 's review for:

Dark Gathering, Vol. 1 by Kenichi Kondō
3.0
dark medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

This was absolutely a cover pick, the cover is great! Unfortunately the story itself wasn't quite what I expected and while it was still enjoyable, I don't feel the desire to pick up the next volume.

The characters were written well enough, but I didn't feel invested in any of their stories. The world building was well done. So far there hasn't been much to the plot; the most intriguing part being the curse Keitaro has.

I might continue with this series in the future, but there are many other manga that I'd like to read first.
