Synopsis

For those who've killed as much as Kuroko Koumori, there is no doubt that they've lost their sanity. In fact, by proving that she is still sane even after killing as many as 715 people, Kuroko avoids death row. Now given a second chance to remain in society as a State-Appointed Executioner, Kuroko and a girl named Hinako Tozakura are charged with hunting down other killers.

While Hinako is a rather happy-go-lucky girl that drives ferraris without a care for the rules of the road (or gravity, for that matter), Kuroko—who Hinako affectionately addresses as "Kuu-chan"—is more of a lascivious lesbian with razor sharp instincts and an impressive aptitude for murder.

The two seem like the most unlikely of duos. However, saddled with the gruesome job of ridding the country of vicious serial killers, it only makes sense for the executioners to be anything but normal!

This review will contain some mild spoilers
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
First of all Murcielago isn't a manga for everyone. It's filled to the brim with gore, sex and murders and mangaka doesn't shy away from killing children so it won't be everyone's cup of tea especially when you consider main character Kuroko is a psychopathic lesbian serial killer who's also a pedophile and prays on under age or/and emotionally unstable and vulnerable women and girls.
Now if you're still here after all of this then you'll probably enjoy first volumes Murcielago, ...

The short version: Although this manga may not be the thing for everyone, i love it to the core.

What makes this manga so good is the strong connection between the story, the world and the exceptionally well-written complex characters. The people aren't just black and white, but have many sides to them. A lot of them also have their own unique role in the story. That goes for the protagonists as well as the antagonists. I was able to sympathize with many of the evil guys because they give you the feeling that they are not evil in their hearts, but forced to do the ...

This manga is the Mount Rushmore of internal-misogyny. It depicts women as perverts, manipulators, victims, crazies, and cold-blooded killers. Worst of all, it’s mostly toward their gender. I stopped reading after chapter 22. An event occurred, which made my jaw drop. It ruined a female-only space that seemed like a lesbian utopia.

Without spoiling too much, there’s much female-on-female crime that happens in this manga. There’s no “sisterhood” at all. The female x female crime isn’t depicted realistically either. I understand that women are catty towards each other, but they are rarely, if ever, homicidal. They fill this manga with Yuri scenes, so it wants us ...
