Seraph of the End is one of my favorite stories and animes. I've always wanted to read the manga and it does not disappoint! The art style is gorgeous and really well-done and I love the pacing and detail work. The characters are also great and well-rounded. Very excited for the next volume!

I watched the anime first before beginning my tortuous journey to collect the manga. (The worst experience ever tbh but I'm glad to have the complete set now.) Really looking forward to seeing how the story progresses where the anime stopped so these first couple volumes will be me revisiting the storyline.
