Review of 'Darkside Blues' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
While I'm not all too fond of the sci-fi genre, I found that I really enjoyed this manga. There was some blatant nudity in the beginning, and even more blood and gore throughout, but not so much that I would consider this as a horror. Everything's really futuristic, but the artwork has that classic, 90's feel. I almost felt like I was reading Dragon Ball Z (bad comparison, both great works).
Even though this volume is over 300 pages, I found it to be relatively short. It had nice bits of action scenes that made the pages flip quicker than I thought. There's still a whole lot of unexplained things, and it has a very open ending, that a second volume seems appropriate. But for a one shot, it was a great read. Definitely going on my favourites.
