Death Note: Black Edition, Vol. 2 by Tsugumi Ohba
4.0
4/5 Stars: ‘Death Note’ (Book #2 of ‘Black Edition’) by Tsugumi Ohba.
→ Age Range: Young Adult.
→ Genre: Manga, Criminal Fantasy.
→ Trigger Warnings: Sexism, Emotional Manipulation, Murder.
In-depth Rating:
→ Plot: ★★★★
→ Character Development: ★★★★
→ Setting: ★★★★
→ Entertainment Level: ★★★★
→ Writing: ★★★★
General Comments: The psychological warfare continues. Tension builds: characters, relationships, and plots begin to intertwine. The ebb and flow of dialogue between detective and killer is, at its simplest, an enjoyable experience – there is an undeniable beauty in these mental mind-games portrayed across the panels. There is certainly an increase in intensity and grittiness, one that comes with a gruffer edge.
Favourite Quote: ‘You can’t ever win if you’re always on the defensive. To win, you have to attack.’
Time Read: One Day.
