This is my first review, and I'd like to point out that I haven't watched Kill La Kill show all the way trough yet, but I know the basics. Also I haven't read more than one volume of this manga simply because the first one leaving really bad taste in my mouth.
The plot is same as in the anime, after all, this manga is adaption of the show, which would explain why it wasn't so good thing to read.
If you were looking for good quality manga, you are at wrong place. Despite the show being amazing, this comic is not. The art style is good,

Unfortunately the manga adaptation of the anime does a poor job of transferring the epic, over the top scale of the show onto paper.
I find it quite disappointing that the manga itself is deemed complete only after three volumes, ending after Ryuko finished taking on the Elite Four and Nui for the first time. That felt like a particularly jarring and inappropriate note for the manga to finish on since the world of Kill la Kill is still so undeveloped and ultimately open ended. The story itself up to this point is practically the same as the original anime, albeit much of the detail is ...

Given the high intensity, originality and dynamic energy of the anime, I had high hopes for the manga version of Kill La Kill. Turns out I was sorely disappointed, but not completely let down either.
The art style is indeed different, but not at all unpleasant, and it has that dynamism and over the top character that largely defines the anime's esthetic. I definitely think they could have done a better job in this regard, but it's original in its own right without departing from the anime, which is totally fine by me. Much more negative, however, is that numerous smaller elements of the plot have been ...

I haven't watched the anime, but even still I'm disappointed.
I honestly loved this series, until the very end. I liked the characters and loved the art. I did like the "twist" (I guess you could call it that) at the very end, but it seems like the other half of the story was chopped off. I even looked online, hoping there were more volumes, but no. This series had a 3 volume adaptation and that's all. It's kind of a slap in the face, especially if you got your hands on the physical volumes. They're extremely expensive and they're cheating you out of a great ...

The Manga adaptation is pretty good it didn't feel like it was any worse than the anime I would recommend both what I cant recommend is buying the physical copies since it doesn't reach the ending and last i looked buying the 3 volumes cost over $200 USD
now as for the story i think its great its a hard turn in the fan service direction but I think it has a decent twist and i don't think that extreme fan service takes away from the story its even used as a plot point at points. the comedy in it feels great the world manages to ...

Definitely an entertaining read for those who have already seen the anime, but unfortunately this adaptation is no match for the iconic work of the TRIGGER studio.
This manga covers only about. half of the original story, and yet many sections are cut or sped up too much to be fully enjoyable. The fights (as to be expected) are not as dynamic as in the original work, but in any case the effort of the author should be appreciated (which is clear that he loved the original work) in trying to give the story of Kill la Kill a proper paper adaptation. |
