Godeath: Megami no Ketsumyaku

Well, I really didn't have the intention of reading this. Just happened that I was passing by a local comic store and they were selling the three volumes with discount so I said: "Why not?" I was very surprised when I realized this work was done by the same author of Ikkitousen, which brings me to first important point about this manga, the art is beautiful. As you can expect from a man used to drawing the bodies of beautiful ladies, Godeath is no exception. If you only want to look at beautiful art, this is the manga for you. About the characters, pretty much 90% ofthe cast are women. The good thing is that they all have different personalities. There's the shy one that enters into beast mode while fighting, the cute aggressive loli that changes her personality as the story progresses, and of course, there's the hot tomboy. All of them give the story a little bit more of appeal. Now, talking about the plot itself, there's not really much to tell. It's a battle between Masons and the Vatican. The MC gets involved in the war because of personal reasons and she gathers friends during her journey, while fighting against a main antagonist. The problem with Godeath is that you feel everything happens way too fast and obviously, that won't let you have some proper character development. Maybe if the story had at least three more volumes, it could've been better. My conclusion: Read it for the art, don't read it for the plot.
