Shikeisyu 042. I came across this comic today when i'm going about my daily search for nice comics to read. ^_^
I strongly recommend these comic for reading because i believe that it has a rather good story and interesting characters. It allows readers who are into comics that are of the main stream (eg. D-gray man, Naruto and etc...) to take a step back to see what treasures they are missing. And for those that dun read comics U might like to try reading this manga.
I shall copy and paste the summary of the story for those who are interested to find out more.
Shikeisyu 042
Tajima Ryohei, aka Shikeisyu 042 is sentenced to death for murdering 7 men. However the government is planning on abolishing the death sentence for good. In order to accomplish this, Ryohei must prove that ex-criminals like him can live in society. During the 3 years he lives outside the prison, he will meet more than 1,000 people, clean restrooms, plant flowers and define the value of human life and kindness.
After reading the end of chapter 2 i felt a little sad for the main character ( i feel that i might very well shed a few tears for him . . emo right? ^_^ ) It's a good combo of a little humour, sadness, every-day life and humanity. Once again i would strongly encourage MANGA readers and non-readers to try this book.
So far it only has 15 chapters, so try to not to read that fast , although i understand that it is rather hard not to continue reading once U get hooked. Reason for putting this word of caution is that it's release date is a little screwed up. The kind people who put up this comic dun really do it often unlike naruto, bleach and one piece which releases every friday ( and when there are no releases I get a LITTLE cranky.. ) So it might actually take months juz for 1 chapter to appear... and i do mean MONTHS!!
There are also other comics that i've read and would like to introduce to U guys if U are interested. ( it depends whether i can recall the titles =P )
I juz realised something, all these talk about the manga and i haven even gave u guys the webby to go and find it, haha okay here it is: http://www.onemanga.com/Shikeisyu_042/
Hopefully the link works, do explore the other comics and U could give me some of UR own opinion of the comic. Furthermore there are other titles for U to read juz navigate around the webby.
Finally i hope U enjoyed!!
HAPPY reading. ^_^
so come on, tell me.
