I wish that The Last Voyage of the Demeter (2023) would have been like the first chapter. Now THAT would have been a movie!

Picked this up bc I was drawn to the artwork on that cover at b&n. The art is super captivating! Story is a little hard to follow/jumps around a bit. I do fine a lot of first volumes of manga are like that, since they’re setting up so much info at once. Definitely interested enough to pick up the next volume

Honestly didn’t know what to expect from this at all but I definitely enjoyed it! A very alluring twist on the Dracula novel, with beautiful artwork to complement it! I did feel that it jumped around a little but I can’t wait to pick up the next volume!

Not bad tbh, but I felt like I did not knew what I was reading. Probably gonna buy the next one anyways since the style is so beautiful.

It’s very hard to review a volume of manga as it’s just a small portion of a much larger story. However…
The artwork is absolutely incredible and was the first thing that drew me to buy this series.
The volume as a whole is actually quite confusing, flitting between characters/settings very quickly that I had to go back and see if i had missed anything.
Confusion aside, all the characters definitely have their own personalities that I can’t wait to explore in future volumes.Mina seems to love Lucy, who is the Luke’s nighttime persona. Trans maybe? From what I gathered, Luke/Lucy was bitten by the demon dog at the cemetery and turned into a vampire.
I’ve already started the second volume as I’m eager to learn more about the characters and what become of them, and maybe it was clarify a few things for me when it comes to the story. But so far, so good. I just can’t get over how amazing the artwork is!!
