Devils line anime code zero seven5/17/2023 ![]() 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. Whilte reading this manga, I wasn't sure at first how I would like it, even though my tastes are all over the spectrum. 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. 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. 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. It's basically everything I've ever been looking for. 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.

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. That alone is interesting enough to make this series worth a read. And this horrific depiction of vampirism is juxtaposed with a genuine tenderness between the two protagonists. It is a genuine obstacle, and at times a seemingly insurmountable one, to the romance between the main couple. Vampiric bloodlust is brutal, disgusting, and even sexual (in a rapey way, not a romantic way). 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. ![]() But it's rare for the reader to really feel that the beast is actually a danger to the beauty. It's not uncommon for a romance to bill itself as a "Beauty and the Beast" story. 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. The story may even be biased slightly towards the non-romantic plot. 01% of the population) get roughly equal attention. ![]() It is not what you imagine when you think "vampire romance." The most obvious difference is that the romantic subplot (vampire cop guy and non-vampire girl) and the nonromantic subplot (shadowy organization trying to genocide vampires, who make up about. It's weird, it's creepy, it's dark, and it's pretty dang good. ![]()
