Kaytoko's Manga Corner

Okay, I just have to briefly talk about Flame of Recca for a moment. It's a very shounen manga that has nearly the exact same story pattern of Yu Yu Hakusho (for those of you looking for something similar to read) BUT regardless of it's genre, I have to give props to the author of this fantastic series. 

The characters are wonderful. The main characters are so lovable,  some of the enemies are so easy to sympathize with (some of those are surprising!) and the author does a fantastic job of really making you hate the bad guys. It's just so easy to get behind Recca and the Hokage's plight.  And DAMN. The fight scenes are cool. 

BUT THE BEST PART OF ALL is the freaking ROMANCE. It's not very blatant and it's certainly not a focus, but MAN. Can I just send an award to this mangaka? There has honestly not been a SINGLE moment throughout this series where I didn't believe the romance between Recca and Yanagi, and especially Domon's devotion for Fuuko. They don't doubt each other in the series and nothing gets in the way of how they feel for each other. It's ridiculously refreshing to NOT SEE ANY JEALOUSY DRAMA in a manga. There are those types of relationships that are SO certainly obvious and meant to be and MY GOD DO I LOVE IT. 

So, seriously. Props for Nobuyuki Anzai for writing a refreshing and believable romance into an otherwise VERY shounen manga. 

Interested in reading it? Here's a link. Enjoy!
