Uratarou is sadly yet another great manga that was shaping up to be a epic story spanning hundreds of chapters with beautiful art and amazing characters but was sadly axed and ended after only a meagre 51 chapters when there was clearly going to be hundreds more. TL;DR The manga was axed so nothing matters in the story and there is little reason to read it. But if you wish to read this manga still then continue on, though I don’t advise it.
The story is about a immortal called Uratarou who is trying to die and a mortal named Chiyo who is trying to become

Not sure how reviews work so this is just my thoughts on the series. Personally I really enjoyed it and it wasn't too long of a read, so if you have time I would recommend reading this. The plot development is a bit too fast for my liking and so was the character development - I feel like it could've been more drawn out to make it more believable and to get readers to emphasize. This is not to say it's not a good story, per se - I liked the premise. Also, I found the art style really nice to look at and pretty ... Dec 1, 2018
The story, characters, themes, and basically everything about this manga is fantastic and it is easily one of my favorites. In fact it probably would be my favorite manga if not for a singular issue. The ending ended up being extremely rushed, and becomes obvious within the last few chapters, especially the finale. The way the characters all evolved throughout the story made it clear that they were planning so much farther, but instead it ended in the second arc.
Do I recommend this? Yes absolutely. But is it satisfying? Until the very end extremely. There's also a super thic albino loli that steps like a ... Mar 11, 2017

One wants to die, the other wants to live. With this antithesis , we get to know our main characters, Chiyo and Uratarou. The plot is after the Genpei War (no gonna explain what is that shit, google it lazy boys), where, instead of winning the Minamoto Clan, the Taira won the war because they made a contract with demons. Chiyo, our protagonist, is searching for inmortality because she is dying (obvious, why she would search for it?) and she finds Uratarou, an undead that doesn't give a fuck and then they go to search for inmortality and a way to kill Uratarou. The plot ... Jul 13, 2017

Story : Does the job of a shonen. Can feel cheesy but can feel awesome. It relies a lot on big focuses on characters that say an important line that define their way of thinking. Can give you chills or it can be annoying. Can be really dark too. Like every shonen it has also some comedy. Art: The way that he draws his character is pretty normal but the way he handles the effects. Oh my god. The fights are succesions of scenes with intenses effects and positions. Makes the fight fresh than the usual dragon ball ... Oct 25, 2022
Actually have a lot of potential. The world, the character, the concept, and especially the art is amazing. But, the plot itself is so rushed, maybe it's the effect of the fact that it got axed, but since the first few chapters i feel like it always been rushed tbh. I wish that Atsushi Nakayama sensei explore more about the world, character, and so on. But it's still a great and fast read, not to many dialog and the artsyle kinda remind me of GACHIAKUTA. I actually read this because the manga covers of Vol 6 that looks dope af.

tl;dr: A manga with a strange but good art style and well-developed duo of characters with a plot moving in a really interesting direction that was forced to end at a terrible time.
This manga gets off to a pretty interesting start. The first thing I noticed was the art style, which is quite strange though in a good way, and reminds me quite a bit of Danganronpa. Overall the art is quite elaborate, with designs that are very cute, but also designs that can be quite creepy, with both of these aspects coming through quite a lot in character expressions. The main duo of characters was also quite interesting, seeming to be opposites, but actually meshing quite well ... |
