Seraph of the end is one of the shows that made my childhood great.
I recently found out there is a manga and started reading it. And it truly is a masterpiece deserving one of the top places with the whole theme of vampire ,family ,demons ,bonds and best of all mikayuu's relationship.The story in the recent chapters is truly beautiful and interesting with Shikama doji/Sika madu's past and his goals.

It truly makes makes me sad as to why this doesn't have a season 3 , I mean they have more than enough content for making another few seasons so why not?

I write this review as per chapter 136 published by official translator. This is light spoiler review, because it neccesary to tell bad thing and good thing.

Talk about the story, the story itself is full of betrayal, conflict, sadness, depression and so many other thing involve around it. There is good time when they are talking to each other, laugh etc but it takes so much panel which i think its kinda filler. Story start with conflict and plot running around that conflict which loom into conflict and again and again and again. The good thing from story is the ambition to want something even ... do something bad thing, The bad thing from the story is way too many plot twist, plot twist is good but in reasonable amount, but for this one, there are ALOT OF THEM, example there is plot twist in this chapter, next chapter, another plot twist and so on so on. Reader who are not veteran of reading wont catch up in this type story. Its unpredictable which make me read till the latest chapter. I originally also anime watcher and decide to read because S3 wont happened any point and i also lose the hope so i just binge with manga.

Talk about character, this is the problem, everyone here are childish, i know the world already mess for around 8 years, everyone just like kid. beside demon army high ranking and vampire high ranking/noble. The problem is main cast is so childish despite living in hell everyday, it should make them mature faster than normal kid today.
Yuu which our beloved mc who are have bad backstory, is so childish, naive and empower by power of friendship. Everytime i see him, he always like, yea u kill my friend, i forgive u, yea u kill people, okay i forgive u. I mean come on, really bro?. Next main cast, Shinoa, which u can said "female lead" yea she is, the story itself always flag her as female lead/ love intrest, u know something funny, Yuu himself (male lead) like Mika more than Shinoa despite she is confess him like many times (i think Yuu think it as a joke, never take seriously because her character also like that) She is strong woman but simp one. No complain but i demand justice for her. Mika, this guy right here, is the most realistic one, mature, always on watch, never trust somebody, train to become strong, and always protect his precious thing. I cant complain about Mika because he is the only character that i root more. Guren, senior of Yuu, HE IS MANIPULATOR, like how many times in the story, he betray everyone, even his friend. Like come on, everyone should sentence him to prison or something, he just roam around like nothing, commit another crime and roam freely like nothing. In this story, there is "provisional gov" which there is law, this guy break way so many law. He is realistic character, indeed but again, like law doesnt apply to this guy.

Talk about the art, its good, the action scene pretty damn good, the angel drawing is hella accurate. I love there are many bibilical reference here.

Overall, its good reading, try it by yourself, at first few chapters, its boring but it gets better chapter per chapter.

First of all I want to mention how GORGEOUS the art is. I cannot emphasise it enough. But I want to talk about for Owari No seraph was how surprised I became towards it.

There was the cliche concept of teenagers fighting against vampires in a disease ridden world, and also seeking for revenge and general character development. But in spite of that concept being cliche, somehow the characters we meet really make it turn into something fun to read.

What I like about ONS has to be how well the story was thought out, the chapters began generically — vampires are evil, humans are good, ... that sort of stuff. But the more you read, the more you dive into the truth of the universe and the beginning of the true apocalypse. We understand that in this universe, there is no good side and there is no evil side. And that humans can be equally as wicked as vampires, vice versa. It’s a story about how everyone in this world are trying to fight for something thinking it’s for the benefit of their people, when in reality, it just leads to more destructiveness. And ppl say it’s very generic, but the amount of plot twists it has makes me want to go take a walk sometimes!

One of my favourite mangas, and I absolutely love the lore about these vampires. It’s not like any other vampire series I’ve read or watch, and the universe is the type of dystopia I get so hooked onto.

(The review only includes my opinion and may contain some spoiler.)

Story (9/10):
The story about a Virus, which killed almost all humans except kids is something really unique. At first i really didnt think that there where much more about the Virus than an Accident and all. But with reading more and more till the recent chapter I realized how much there was behind and how well thought the story is. Also with Yu being on the humans side while Mika is fighting for the Vampires gives us a really good perspective of both sides. But like i said there is way more behind it. I ... wont say what because i want you to read the Manga of course. I gave it a 9 yet because the manga is still ongoing and i dont know what will happen but i am really hyped for sure.

Art (8.75/10):
In my opinion the Art is really good. The effects like flames, shadows etc. looks soooo good. Especially the moments when the character become strong. Also the backgrounds where clearly drawn. There are still scenes when there was only drawn the character and no background. I dont really have a problem with it but i still think its worth to mention and thats also my reason for the rating.

Character (9.5/10):
So, the character really are well done. Yu, who has a tragic past and doesnt know much about having a family but still tries to protect and sacrifice his humanity and life for the people that are important for him. Mika, who is scared of losing the people that are important to him and protects yu at all cost. Shinoa, who is sarcastic and doesnt put emotion in the words she say but still developed feelings for Yu and desires to experience love and to make Yu happy. Her character development through the mangas really impressed me. It would take pretty long if i would describe the others too, so ill just leave it like this. However, the character development is incredible and makes me like the manga so much.

Enjoyment (10/10):
What to say about this? Of course I really enjoyed the manga yet and it always makes fun to read a new chapter.

Overall (9/10):
Overall i really really recommend the manga to everyone. You can also watch the anime but the manga has way more content. Its one of my fav mangas and im really looking forward for the next chapters and volumes! Love Owari no Seraph and its something really special which needs way more attention.

Thanks for reading. This is my second review and only my opinion so dont hate on me lmao.

Kind of the vampire/demon version of attack on titan but it works very well. Story is fascinating, in many ways - overarching plot, interactions between many different characters.

Art style is very effective, has it’s own style which is always good for a manga, like I said, amazing characters, in fact I can’t think of a single bad one, rare for anything (even those briefly seen at least look good and are memorable) and 10 for enjoyment because it is amazing in every way.

Not really something to review or critique, my advice is just to read and enjoy it, same with the side novels ... and of course the anime. On that note would be amazing if a season 3 could be made!

First I will state that I am a huge fan of this series and I truly like all the characters. I love the setup and how everything is connected in one way or the other and I'm hoping we get see exactly how everything is connected. But the reasons I have mixed feelings is the feel like the characters are just starting to be written really badly. Yu is just so stuck up with Mika which I get but holy he needs to like realize there's more than just Mika around him. Later on in the manga Mika seems to have common sense and understands ... straight up what's obtainable and what's not. But In the end I feel like the author has something in mind on how this will end and I am excited to see what will happen. (I can see Yu and Shinoa getting together with Mika being alive) along with everything else lmao.

Okay so it's been a while since there has been a recent review. Most recent one I saw was from a year over.

It's, in all honesty, great. The story, the concept, and especially the art are splendid. For the earlier chapters and volumes, that it.

The story was pretty decent up to about the 50-ish chapters. As you read more and progress through the series, plot and enjoyment, in my opinion, dropped a bit at the 60-70-ish chapters. And sunk a bit more when I reached the 80-ish chapters. Then at 90+ chapters, motivation to read just plummeted. And that's me being generous. Very close ... to dropping though.

Characters and the whole plot become confusing, always talking about two things: family and betrayals. The latter made the whole plot a mix mash of shit you can barely make things out of. It's like reading a computer generated English translation of Chinese texts without even being proof-read. No, actually it's even worse than that. As for the former, it's just Dom spouting shit about family and calling it a day and making it plot. No substance whatsoever because its just plot armour over armour over armour.

The plot of this is like mixing a beverage. You make a fruit smoothie with cream and confectionary on top. It even has a little umbrella. It's packed with flavour and looks aesthetically pleasing. But as you drink it, the contents decreases. But because you want to keep the cup full, you add water. You keep adding water until its just plain water, effectively removing any flavour or decorations. It's become bland with little to no thrill and excitement. Just like the plot of the series the more you read it past chapter 60.

If it wasn't for so much confusion, plot armor, plot holes, and 'family' shit, I think about 23 volumes worth of reused and recycled plot can be condensed to just about 5-6 volumes i But hey, that's what I think. There's just too many shit going on that it drags the story and destroys it instead.

There are some characters that irk me because of:
1.) No character development whatsoever, except a select few. But considering the time for all the shit that took place (not even being a year after Yu got his black weapon series), it's understandable. But in retrospect, it's been month's that they have been together yet they stick to the same personality and become overbearing at some point.
2.) Their personality archetype are so overused that its become very irritating. You know those single minded characters who only think of one thing without contemplating of the consequences afterwards and only thinking about 'friends' this and 'family' that? Yeah, that's Yu. That single thought process affects everyone, apparently, and should have thwarted the plans of schemers. But nope, it became plot armour instead. :v
3.) The curious case of the missing characters who suddenly disappeared off the face of the manga because they are lesser than side characters but had some impact on the story. I mean, okay the story is more focused on specific people, but at least inform the readers where they at. Something along the lines of 'They are back in their base, recuperating'.


It's come to the point where reading the comments become more interesting than the manga/ novel itself. You know it went south for you if that's the case.

Well, right now, I'm just reading because of Shinoa, the best grill, and Ferid, the comic relief.
