His composition for Library Wars was quite good though, so I'm gonna be optimistic about it.
Besides, the source material for this is excellent. Gonna be hard to screw it up [much].

I've read the manga and it's nothing like your typical vampire story. If I we're to describe it , it's got the Tokyo ghoul vibe about it but with romance in its narrative

I've read the manga (not all of it, but a decent amount) and let's just say that how much you like Tokyo Ghoul's later parts will determine if you like this or not.

I have read all eleven volumes out so far and I can tell you that so far it is *not* 'Twilight' in really any way. :-)

Answering the thread's question, yes, i did read 15 chapters of the manga a pretty good time ago, and i was at least decent. To be honest, i enjoyed it. Gotta see if more chapters are out, it's been a long time already..

This can be watched by guys and girls, it is a seinen.
The romance aspect is the only thing that you can say it's more "girly" but the story is good and the action is decent in my opinion.

Honestly, sounds like Tokyo Ghoul ripoff.

But, hey, although ripoffs are usually worse than originals, we can be sure this one won't be. You can't get worse than Tokyo Ghoul after all.

It isn't always fair to call something a rip-off just because it reminds you of something, but the notion that the manga and now the anime are riding on the wave of Tokyo Ghoul's success is very likely true. Because yeah, it reminds people of Tokyo Ghoul and they want to see more of that kind of stuff. Are the people behind Devil's Line guilty of plagiarism? No. As long as something has it's own story to tell with it's own set of characters it's not plagiarism.

Are Tokyo Ghoul fans happy they have something else to read in the same vein? Well they're probably not complaining at least. If we take this thread as a sample, the only one complaining is you, and you've made it pretty clear you're not Tokyo Ghoul's biggest fan.

Nah, mai boyz, it's nothing like Ghoul. It's actually a romance that happened to be quite mature and good. There's some action to boot.
Get ready for some good stuff. For real.

Its just that Vampire stories left us with bad taste in mouth.

Also this feel like otome or some shoujo the extreme one.

You're right. But tag "seinen" got me curious, so I checked manga.
It's nothing like shoujo bs or whatever. It's actually quite mature romance with some action, some social part (no drama involved), and some scenes that are actually funny.

8/10 manga imho, maybe even higher as I only read 3 volumes but it gets better with every chapter (start is a bit slow). I'll watch anime now as they will probably adapt about 20 chapters, so I can just read manga after that.

The manga is pretty good (Chapter 52 is hilarious). Haha. Hope the anime is doing well. I'll watch this once the anime is finished airing.

What i like is both MC are mature enough. Mature romance is definitely there as well so not really recommended to 13 age below. Plenty of actions and gore so i'm sure this ain't for girls only.

Agree. I cry when i saw a review (in Manga) rating it low when he/she only read 9 chapters. The manga is honestly good specially the latter chapters ( Chapter 15 and above).

Nope. Its for Guys and Girls. The "seinen" tag says it afterall. Mature romance, decent amount of action.
Kinda similar to TG and Parasite but more focuse in romance. Characters are mature enough so less drama. Dont expect this to be a typical ramance/shoujo anime.

Why everyone keep saying this is another twilight or tokyo ghoul bs.

I have read the ch till 47.5 While i admit the story looks like romance driven, but the romance is not like twilight romance (i dont even read or watch it but i am guessing those cheap tennage romance).

And the manga is actually have a PLOT. And so far. I can not even hate the antagonists. They are all have their own ideology and situation. You will have sympathy with them.

The couple pairings are all cute, fluffyy and a little bit hopeless. But that is the best part, you will want to root for them and wishes them happiness. Pls dont break my heart author-san

The amount of mature content though... i will say rated 16 and above.
And i am not sure if the anime can pull them off. They are bound some changes on the adaption, I just hope they don't butcher it like what happen with tokyo ghoul.

Keep in mind that this is seinen. Mean for mature audiences.

The manga is is like a dream come true for us female mature audiences, who sick of shoujo cliche romance or never ending chapters of shounen action with no hint of romance on sight. For once an interesting story (no drama though) with some ships to build.

Dunno,first episode was ok at best.

Don't even see the point of this show

We got Mahou Shoujo for the edge,Tokyo Ghoul for the supernatural monster stuff and the urban setting and this season has plenty romance anime. Ergo,we don't really need this :P

Honestly, I'm a fan of the manga because of the romantic subplot but it has enough to hold my attention besides that. Plus, I like how characters grow and everyone isnt always together and don't follow the same path which keeps things interest. I have decent expectations for the anime and hope it popularized the series but a lot of people will see it as a RIP off of Tokyo Ghoul

There is also quite a lot of comparisons to Twilight.... Though.... That seems to be the anime-only viewers. And so far the pacing in the anime is all shot to crap, compared to the manga pacing. So, that's likely why the anime only viewers are (in some (or a lot) of the cases) are throwing the twilight name around.... Its kind of annoying. People shouldn't compare either of them (I dropped Tokyo Ghoul after episode #1(I don't usually drop something after 1 episode and have no conditions of trying it another time)- its not my thing. Far too gross for me) to Devils Line.
