The Plot

After being devastated in the third World War (known as The Third Division), Japan was divided in two. Several years after the end of the war, a crime organization called Vischio has taken control of the destroyed city of Toshima (formerly Tokyo, Japan's capital city), where they are holding a battle game known as "Igura". The game's main character, a young man named Akira, is falsely accused of a crime. Once arrested, a mysterious woman appears before him, offering him freedom if he agrees to participate in Igura and defeat Igura's strongest man: the king, or "Il-re". The story follows Akira's life in the harsh, lawless Toshima as he fights both to survive and to unravel the mysteries developing around him.

What I feel:


I can't believe it... I actually read something that has connection to BL. 0.0 The whole manga is base on a BL game of the same title by the company Nitro+Chiral
I was very attracted to the storyline & art so I decided to read online. Hahaha Lucky me This version is non-shounen-ai (I have yaoi phobia =.=) Anyway lets continue shall we...

The Story:


I didn't get to the end.. I only read till where they last released online. I've nvr seen it sold either *vein pop out* =.=
The whole story was what intrigued me to read. The whole fighting game seemed so cool. Yes.. the story was indeed great. It made me want to read chapter after chapter with suspense especially when u start finding Keisuke getting weird. Oops spoiler hint. :P The story follows the Keisuke Route of the game. Keisuke route or not the story is still interesting.

The characters:

Ahah! My favourite part to write about.I must say the range of characters are quite interesting... everyone has a different personality. The only 2 ppl who has the same personalities are Kiriwar & Gunzi. Remind me of mad dogs.. like there is a short circuit in their brain (>_<) but thats the fun part of it. Akira (Main character) is aloof but of course who doesn't like the cool ones in a manga (unless they act like arrogant jerks & emos XD). You have characters who have secret dark sides to their personalities. Hate them (Arbitro*cough* His "Erhumness" *vein pops out* ) Love them or pity them. U may choose :)

The Art

Say horray for the art because there are bishounens~ Unless u hate bishies of course.. The art is good & to me I think its a whole lot better than the art in the 2nd manga adaption of this game. No complaints about the art real nice ;)

U may like this if you:

• Liked the original PC game or PS2 version (Togainu no Chi True Blood)
  
• Like mangas about fights ( Not the shounen powerup ones so don't expect the characters to shout the names of their "special moves")
  
• Like bishounens... (Stare all u want buffet :P)
  

Note:

• Contains mature themes of drug usage (although it did tell us the bad effects of it...)
  
• Violence ( Not too gory just a little blood here & there)
