Demon King, Tome 04

King of Hell / Demon King #4

by Ra In-Soo, Kette Amoruso (Traduction), Kim Jae-Hwan

For three hundred years, Majeh's spirit has served as the King of Hell's envoy, while Majeh's body lay preserved in a special hidden lake. However, when demons escape from the netherworld and hijack bodies in the world of the living, Majeh's spirit is restored to his body to hunt down the escapees...in less than a month. A master swordsman, Majeh is drawn to a town hosting a grand fighting competition. That same town is being plagued by strange and grisly murders. Could the two events somehow be connected? And, in a city full of fighters, could Majeh meet his match?

The sky scenery is incredible. I want something like that on my wall. I really like the way it looks.
That aside....This volume has actually left me a little disappointed. This was basically just a book of introductions. It introduced all the side characters and showed some of their personality. While efficient, it was very forced. What are the chances that our main protagonist, a nobody by all accounts, would meet all the important people in this competition?? It would have been better to introduce them all slowly and naturally but I guess I'll have to live with this volume, I do like all the characters though. Art and personality-wise they all sound very interesting.

Okay manga. Not my speed but mildly entertaining. =)

This is getting ridiculous. DBZ had a tournament, let's have a tournament!
