Torikago Syndrome

This is my first review so i'll try to be as usufull as possible. Torikago no Tsugai is a story that revolves around a japanese boy who comes to an European school where there are no laws but a caste game between the students. There people are treated according to their ranks and also bullied according to the same. Story:8 I just finished reading this series and i really liked the story.But then again, i am an unconditional fan of Caste Heaven so i might have been a little influenced due to the similarities. Although this series is a rather small one it still had plot twists anda little of a thriller kind of feeling, which many series are not able to pull off. It kept you captivated and entertained till the end. Art:10 I didn't even think twice before giving it a ten. I like Samamiya Akaza works a lot and I definitely like her art style and until now I haven't found one like hers. It really is pure bliss to read something so well drawed and her style absolutly suits the mangas she writes. Characters:7 I gave this category a 7 because let's face it, it really is a small series so there's only to alternatives: or the characters develop too fast and it doesn't look natural and it gets strange, or the characters don't get to have much developtment. So, I wasn't expecting much but there was certainly developtment but it wasn't really that big. But I do like the characters,though. Enjoyment:9 I really liked this manga. Although it has some violence ans such, it's still a very light manga that can be read at any time. You need a pause after reading a HUGE manga with 155 chapters? Sure! this is it!It has a shounen-ai vibe to it ( which is also to my liking), friendship, drama,mystery and can be tagged as psycological. Overall:10 As I said before I really like Caste Heaven and similar series and I also LOVE Samamiya Akaza works and artstyle so just beacause of that i already enjoyed like 30%. This manga was exactly what I was hoping for. It is a light reading but still interesting, full of interesting characters and not to shallow. It also reflects Samamiya-sensei own style. I really enjoyed it and hope you can check her other works too, if you liked this manga.
