A truly dumb, generic story with truly terrible art and a bit of opening sort of pedophelia. Topped at the end with a dash of some of the most bizarre sexism (like it's shonen so I expected it, but how it's given is just... huh) and lots of badly drawn boobs in totally-not-sex panels. The series' only mercy is that it is short. Skip it. The anime has better art and it's toned down slightly storywise so it's even more of a generic powerup shonen series set in a post-apocalyptic world with some mild doses of future tech and Mad Max territorial stuff. If that's your type of thing, though, here's for you!… (plus d'informations)

Overall, a good read. The artwork is nice, but I kind of like the anime art more. The story deviates from the anime in places as well, leading to cases where the story is drastically different. However, (something that's good for me) there is more Ryuhou, who I find to be an intriguing character, though I can't say I have a character I dislike. Whereas the anime tended to focus just a little more on Kazuma, the manga has a more even balance between HOLY and Kazuma and co.Whereas a lot of manga can be read as a substitute or a companion to an anime series, Scryed is one of those cases where the manga and anime differ so much, both in storyline and even characters, that at first it's a little jarring and something that needs to be gotten used to. I would recommend reading the manga first, mostly because it's only five volumes long (the anime is 25 episodes at a half hour each).Overall I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys sci-fi manga. The plot and the whole thing about Alters? Interesting in and of itself, enough to explore through this manga.… (plus d'informations)
