A review by louandlife
Descendants of Darkness, Vol. 1, Volume 1 by Yoko Matsushita

3.0

I found this book in my local charity shop and I decided to buy it because I hardly see any manga in charity shops, and the description intrigued me. I'm happy that I read it, but I wasn't completely blown away from this manga. I think it had an interesting premise, and the main characters were intriguing, but I don't think that they are intriguing enough for me to buy and read the rest of the series. I would read it maybe if my local library had the collection in stock, but then I also have so many other books which I would much prefer to read. I think that this manga was just so average for me that I don't actually have a lot to talk about. In the beginning I thought the first chapter was okay, but then the pacing slowed for chapter two, but got better again in chapter three. There was one point where I wanted to put the book down and no longer read it, but then I thought to myself that I should read it because it's a manga and it wouldn't take me too long to read if I push myself through it. I wouldn't recommend this manga because I think that it is quite average. Whilst the concept and characters were unique, I think that the execution is lacking so I wouldn't recommend it.
