Dragon Ball Z, Vol. 23 – Boo Unleashed!
📚 Book Review: Dragon Ball Z, Vol. 23 – Boo Unleashed!📖 Author(s): Akira Toriyama 💭 My Thoughts: 🇬🇧 Buu has broken free from his ancestral prison and, once again, our heroes face a threat far beyond their abilities. Throughout the entire series, there’s a constant evolution in Akira Toriyama’s artwork: the drawings become increasingly detailed while never losing the simplicity that defines his style. What’s most impressive is the way he manages to portray action through ever-changing angles, creating superb dynamism in the reading experience.

Boy’s Abyss, Vol. 10
📚 Book Review: Boy’s Abyss, Vol. 10📖 Author(s): Ryo Minenami 💭 My Thoughts: 🇬🇧 This time, we follow the conversation between Reiji Kurose and Kosaku Esemori, where the latter’s past is explored. We get to see how his relationship with Reiji’s mother evolved and why they never ended up together. I found it particularly interesting how Esemori described his feelings for Yuko Kurose as something very intense — an intensity he didn’t feel for another friend he also liked. He seemed to value that intensity as something superior, when, from my own experience, I can confidently say that an intense…

Spy×Family, Vol. 14
📚 Book Review: Spy×Family, Vol. 14📖 Author(s): Tatsuya Endo 💭 My Thoughts: 🇵🇹 Este volume reúne três arcos distintos, cada um com a sua própria atmosfera. O primeiro faz lembrar as clássicas histórias de Poirot, em que várias personagens se encontram reunidas num mesmo local e, após um assassinato, cabe descobrir quem é o culpado entre todos os presentes. Gostei imenso deste arco, embora seja demasiado curto. Tinha potencial para ser mais desenvolvido, mas percebe-se que funciona sobretudo como um tributo a este género de narrativa. Segue-se um arco centrado numa festa que junta várias escolas, onde Anya volta a…

The Killer Inside, Vol. 2
📚 Book Review: The Killer Inside, Vol. 2📖 Author(s): Hajime Inoryu 💭 My Thoughts: 🇵🇹 O primeiro volume já me tinha conquistado, e este segundo veio apenas reforçar essa impressão. Aqui, Eiji Urashima procura compreender como se viu envolvido num assassinato de que nada sabe, mas no qual receia estar implicado devido à sua dupla personalidade. Somos apresentados a novas personagens e aprofundamos o conhecimento sobre a organização criminosa Skall e o papel que desempenha em toda esta intriga. Um thriller intensamente envolvente, onde nada é exatamente o que parece e em que todos parecem esconder segredos. — 🇬🇧 The…

📚 Book Review: Saint Seiya – Os Cavaleiros do Zodíaco – Final Edition, Volume 03📖 Author(s): Masami Kurumada 💭 My Thoughts: 🇵🇹 A batalha contra os Cavaleiros Negros continua. Este volume leva-nos também mais fundo no passado de Ikki, na Ilha da Morte, revelando como se tornou o líder dos Cavaleiros Negros. Tenho de admitir que a narrativa e a escrita soam um pouco juvenis por vezes — demasiado simples, até — mas a série transmite-me uma forte sensação de nostalgia. — 🇬🇧 The battle against the Dark Knights rages on. This volume also takes us deeper into Ikki’s past…

The Killer Inside, Vol. 1
📚 Book Review: The Killer Inside, Vol. 1📖 Author(s): Hajime Inoryu 💭 My Thoughts: 🇵🇹 Já tinha algum tempo que queria começar esta série, mas costumo evitar iniciar novas leituras enquanto ainda tenho volumes em atraso de outras que sigo. Desta vez, porém, decidi avançar — e ainda bem que o fiz. A obra correspondeu plenamente às minhas expectativas: muita tensão e mistério num manga para adultos (seinen), com cenas de violência e algum erotismo. O protagonista é Eiji Urashima, filho de um famoso serial killer. Apesar de nada ter a ver com os crimes do pai, acaba por se…

Shigahime, Vol .1
📚 Book Review: Shigahime, Vol .1📖 Author(s): Hirohisa Satō 💭 My Thoughts: 🇵🇹 Um manga de terror envolvente, com alguns elementos eróticos. O nosso protagonista envolve-se acidentalmente com uma vampira que deseja transformá-lo no seu servo. A partir desse momento, a sua vida toma um novo rumo, e a história explora de que forma esse laço inesperado o afeta e como ele lida com a sua nova (não) vida. Como sempre, a Darkside Books apresenta uma edição lindíssima. Esta série parece ter apenas cinco volumes, e só espero que receba um tratamento mais completo do que DeathDisco, que ficou suspensa…

Night of the Living Cat, Volume 1
📚 Book Review: Night of the Living Cat, Volume 1📖 Author(s): Hawkman, Mecha-Roots 💭 My Thoughts: 🇬🇧 I had my eye on this manga for quite some time — for obvious reasons. Horror and cats: two of my passions. The reading starts off promising, with large panels showcasing the fantastic art of the illustrator Mecha-Roots. In fact, throughout the entire work, the artwork is, without a doubt, its strongest point. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said about the story. Despite starting from an interesting concept, the execution falls short. The narrative feels weak, with dialogues that often sound forced or…
