What a brilliant and beautiful story, oh my goodness. I'm gonna do my best here to actually review it instead of just sobbing through my keyboard, so here I go.

My favorite aspect of this manga is the fact that each and every main character has a rich backstory without the entire story becoming too convoluted. Because of that, the pacing was also really well done. Each character's past came out at exactly the right time, and it was written beautifully.

The art was great as well, and I really got a feel for how the scenes were playing out-- namely the action scenes. Also, the ... humor was conveyed very well. I found the manga to be quite funny, though it was also very good during its intense parts as well.

The main attraction, though, is the romance in this story. It's so, so beautiful. The pacing of this specific part of the story was phenomenal. It didn't happen too quickly, it didn't end like you expected, and it was realistic throughout. The romance actually really benefited that characters' development as well, which isn't that common a find.

All in all, a really great manga. I would 100% come back to it again in the future. Also, if you want to know if it measures up to the anime, it so clearly surpasses it. Not that the anime is a waste of time, but I'm so glad I decided to experience the manga, too. This will remain one of my favorites for a long time.

Okay here goes nothing. The character with the exception of one, are all likeable. The male lead isn't your typical annoying weak/good goody character. He's constantly killing people which is a plus for me. The character in this manga all have some sort of "ability". Control fire, magnetism, electricity and so forth which you would think makes for some pretty decent fights, but not really. All the fights go one or the other. The lead either completely dominates or completely gets dominated. There is no middle ground, making most of the fight scenes pretty boring. As for the story, well it's not terrible but it ... certainly isn't great either. And finally the reason I hated this manga...the female lead. Just about every other page she is preaching on and on..."You shouldn't kill people, you should be good guy and do the right thing.." If she isn't preaching about that then she is interfering wit all the fights in order to save the bad guy. She will hug serial killers and terrorists and tell them to stop being evil...Now if that wasn't enough what really gets me is that they actually listen to her...In conclusion, as long as you can put up with the most annoying female lead in history, then Code Breaker is an alright manga. What I call a "time passer". Nothing special, not really that great but if your just looking to pass some time till you find a better manga then it's alright.

If you ever want to start a drinking game with your buddies and don't know about what, - Just let everyone read this manga.(get copies for everyone and start with chapter one) fill up on ~2 bottles of 40% wodka and start the game.

Everytime the female MC makes anything stupid, does make you sigh, makes you or your buddies want to bang the head against a wall or makes you or your buddies to wish she gets killed at that scene take a shot.

I am rather sure you wont get further than chapter 12. That's the most we ever got before getting completly drunk.

Honestly ... now, - It's bad it's so bad that you have a female MC which kinda represents everything which is wrong about shounen but only 1000000% worse.

A bad guy who kinda killed ~70 adults and children just to get their organs to sell it via black market to rich ppl, - a momemnt before the male mc tries to kill him the female mc jumps in to rescue him(the organ selling bad guy) because he's not a bad guy at all because he has a daughter... and that redeems everything.

Yeah and that's kinda the logic/plot overall the female mc tries to stop the male mc murdering all kind of over the top evil bad ppl. Even trained mercs with top notch gear, - while the plot armor protects her from everything when acting stupid af and convince everyone with the power of hugs/love. If you thought Fairy Tail was over the top just read this manga.

And tbh just make a drinking game out of it, it's 100% worth it and I bet no sane person can take it further than chapter ~15.
