01% of the population) get roughly equal attention. The story may even be biased slightly towards the non-romantic plot. And the non-romantic plot is strong enough to stand on its own as a compelling story.īut what really sets this manga apart from "vampire romances" is how thoroughly unromantic the Devils' Line version of vampirism is. It's not uncommon for a romance to bill itself as a "Beauty and the Beast" story. If the beast is a vampire, his longing for the blood of the beauty is used as a metaphor for his passionate love for her.īut it's rare for the reader to really feel that the beast is actually a danger to the beauty. Vampiric bloodlust is brutal, disgusting, and even sexual (in a rapey way, not a romantic way). It is a genuine obstacle, and at times a seemingly insurmountable one, to the romance between the main couple. And this horrific depiction of vampirism is juxtaposed with a genuine tenderness between the two protagonists. That alone is interesting enough to make this series worth a read. I don't often post reviews, but I've noticed my manga choices are usually pretty dead-on with what is worthy of picking up & reading. I initially bought the first Devil's Line mainly because of the art. I love the artist's style, and the main character is my definition of cool looking, especially when he "transforms" into his Devil-form (aka Vampire form). Their eyes turn black and red with veins protruding around the eyes, huge bottom and top fangs grow, their teeth sharpen, long sharp nails grow, and their strength and bloodlust becomes out of control.Īside from all that, the storyline itself is mature with themes of society, racism, politics, corruption, and friendship/love. ![]() ![]() It's basically everything I've ever been looking for. I even like the female lead, and female leads in romances often annoy me for being completely and utterly foolish endangering themselves, being oblivious, walking straight into traps, etc. I went out and bought the rest of the 5 books as soon as I finished the first, and though I admit it lost some steam in the middle (less nudity and sexual tension), it was STILL amazing throughout, and I am so glad it exists. IF you know of anything similar, or any other dark romances, PLEASE tell me! For now, I greatly look forward to the next volume! My boyfriend even loves this series-it is certainly not just for girls because of the romantic aspect, nor is it just for guys because of the violence/action. Whilte reading this manga, I wasn't sure at first how I would like it, even though my tastes are all over the spectrum. In the beginning, the translations were difficult to follow while LOLScans was the main group working on it, however after chapter 28 someone else takes over, though I don't know who it is.
