Manga 28833 Lucky Dog 1 Blast

Gain is so awesome and cool. Its original and the art is fantastic! All the characters are distinctive and are not copied off each other. My fav however is Giulio. He's beautiful, silent, reserved.People can say he is kinda creepy but I loved the fact he is so attached to Gian. This is my all time favorite of all times! Prison Break with all hot guys. Damn that is good. The manga is really similar to the game but without all the BL in it.

BLGame turned into manga. But nope. Manga is not yaoi or shounen-ai. Maybe if you squint hard.. you'll find BL hints here and there (especially if you're a fan of the game itself). But overall, it's just a mafia related story with a plot.

Story: 9/10

I played the game and I actually love the story of LD1 (putting aside the yaoi). It's very interesting and thrilling especially since I love mafia stories and action.

The story is about Gian, a low-ranking member of CR:5, (the name of their group) often gets thrown in the prison but always manage to escape whenever he wants. He earned the nickname ... "Lucky Dog" because of his incredible luck in almost.. everything. But then an unfortunate incident happened and 4 captains of CR:5 were captured as well. Now this is where Gian enters. He received a letter from the boss of CR:5 telling him that he got promoted into captain and he will also succeed him as the new boss IF he can escape the prison along with the other 4 captains.

If it will follow the storyline in the game, the setting will be like this: Prison -> Escape -> and finally their destination, Daivan, where Gian will become the boss. I'm not sure with the canon ending because there are different endings in the game (different routes) but all of them are good though. And it actually made me cry.

Art: 8/10

Art is good.. though there are times that it's a bit.. off but overall it's good. The art in the game is much more awesome though.

Character: 10/10

Haa... I guess I'm being biased but I super super really really reaaaalllyy love all the characters here! Especially my faves, Gian and Giulio. Combine these characters:

Gian - A happy-go-lucky kind of guy
Ivan - An idiot who has a temper but kind of tsun
Giulio - A guy who has a passion in killing but is super loyal to Gian
Bernardo - Like a mother-figure of the group maybe
Luchino - I would describe him at the smartest in the group and the playboy maybe

And you'll get a really interesting group. They're really lovable T^T

Enjoyment/Overall: 9/10

This is very entertaining to read! And I enjoyed it alot. Especially if you played the game, you'll really appreciate the manga.

If you're up for a thrilling-action with lots of bishies manga, then give this a shot~

I recommend you to play the game as well (that is if you're a BL/Yaoi fan) because you'll get to hear their voices and feel the excitement of the story! Plus it will definitely make yaoi fans HAPPY because they can pick their fave pairing!

A manga about Mafias... I had to read that... After I finished with Hitman Reborn, I came across another mafia story so I picked it up and began reading.

Story - 8/10 Funny, entertaining. It's based on a BL game, but so far in the manga, there's not really any BL scenes except for a few scenes here and there. The "BL hinting" scenes in the manga are actually from a scene from each route in the game. Like there's one scene with Bernardo and Gian that occurs if you're on Bernardo's route in the game, and the scene with Guilio and ... Gian that occurs if you're on Guilio's route... So basicly, the manga gave you all 4 of the scenes... Okay what I said there is a bit hard to follow, but it's alright. But anyway, this manga has just begun. In the game, it does through three stages, Prison -> On the way -> Mafia (They actually have names, but I forget what they're called so I'm just going to go by Prion, On the way, and Mafia) In the manga, it just finished the Prison part.

Art - 9/10 It's a little wee bit awkward from here and there, but overall, I really like the art and shading style.

Characters - 10/10 Contains one of the best characters ever xD The main character, Gian, is a lazy butt of a person who's so carefree and whatevs, and he's a slob too. If you have played/watched/read the game through the bad endings, you'd see that he's not a Gary Stu either, but we're talking about the manga, and the manga hasn't got that far yet. The other characters are a stupid person who can't take a joke, (Ivan) but he's so funny lol. A guy who gets turned on by dead bodies... (Guilio) but he's also funny. A friend of the main character, (Bernardo) that flirts with the main character as a joke, and their flirtings are so funny lol! And lastly, the big guy who's popular with the ladies, (Luchino).

Enjoyment - 10/10 Funny, interesting, not boring at all, really nice to read.

Overall - 9/10 =D
