Default Negative Happy Chainsaw Edge - 05-30-2009, 09:28 PM

Click the image to open in full size.

summary stolen from MAL:
Eri Yukizaki is a girl who fights. She is a “pretty soldier.” Her foe is the evil Chainsaw-man, who doesn’t die even after being slashed. If he isn’t defeated, the world will have no future. I was wrapped into this battle, and my life has changed completely… A “non-stop” negative youth story!

my own words:
a bored high schooler has a chance encounter with a girl sitting in snow... moments after explaining that shes waiting for her rival, the chainsaw man, he appears and a fight ensues. the boy gets wrapped up in how cool it is and follows the girl around in her adventures of fighting the evil chainsaw man.

my thoughts:
lots of cool fight scenes and teen angst as well as some comedy and romance. Both of the main characters have a tragic past that influences them. Its only 8 chapters but its still very good and doesnt end abruptly or anything like that. Also, by the same author as Welcome to the NHK, so you can expect similarities in drawing and mood.

gave it a 9/10 myself.

Check it out... if nothing else, its only 8 chapters so its not a big investment even if you are disappointed.

Wow, "finished" huh? That's quite the short storyline, so is this all in 1 volume?
