So this is my first ever review for MAL, so boundless error's are probably going to appear. But without further a due lets get dug in. My first major issue is the review's and there dates, the 4 highest rated are around 2 years ago and not a single one has been updated. These continue to be some of the more popular opinions and I feel that isn't right, but lets get onto the main topic the review of Terra formars, first off the Story.

The story of Terra formars at the beginning was weak, it lacked any real depth and actual knowledge of what was ... going on in the universe as a whole and was just confusing to me. But as everything started revealing itself such as tensions between nations, back stories of characters and as well those effected by the mission in itself not just on mars but back on earth. It really can catch you on the edge of your seat and while I won't discuss any particular arc or event, the sacrifices that our made seem out of desperate human emotion and it really drives the story to be just as good.

Now onto the Artwork, particularly not one of the greatest feats of Terra formars espically during the Chinese arc (from my memory) and it can be hard to understand what is actually happening, but these where very rare and I had to dock at least 1 point for it, except for that it has some great artistic direction. Recent chapters that have subtitled have looked great, and some of favourite pages are from Terra formars such as Adolf's character design. His broken, shattered and re-modified body look's on point for him.

(For the sake of this section it's again a general look at the characters and not an in-depth look at each one, otherwise you will be sitting here for days)

Let's have a look at the characters and there powers that accompany them. So personally for me I can't find a character that I hate. Even though there might a be few that are on the mediocre line the main cast have proven themselves to be some of my most favourite characters. Although they have the stereotypical Russian names and some have some very Japanese "Foreigners = Blonde's" it still doesn't make me really care, there interactions are really cut and clean and there personalities drive the series to be even better.

Additionally a few more point's

The characters powers, one of the coolest aspects of this series as a whole and gives it that amazing SCI-FI element to me and I have had a number of discussions with friend's on what creature they would want. (Pistol shrimp) Some people question the reality of it all and I tend to disregard it. People who usually tend to question it won't like the series just out right either because questioning everything is in there nature or having to nit pick till it's the size of a black hole. These people won't enjoy the series and there people like that out there.

Secondly on this never ending review has to be a short review of Johj. There one of the coolest villain's, filled with absolute mystery and leaves the reader in suspense every time a new Johj approaches. For example in the latest chapter of 146 it was amazing, "a new challenger appeared" and just leaves destruction in his path, an immense and an awesome character.

Lastly, sexism and xenophobia by the author, fuck off.
