( ) I picked this up purely for the art (the gorgeous linework! the fancy dresses! everyone's delicate eyelashes!) but the story is so fun and funny, plus I love Alexia and Lord Maccon's interactions so much that I am actually going to read the novel. So this manga did a pretty good job as promotion for the book series. The story zips along quite fast as it's a manga adaptation of a full-length novel, and I felt there were tons of things that were left vague or unexplained. For example, just what does it mean to be soulless? As far as I can tell, it really doesn't affect Alexia's life that much aside from being able to neutralize supernatural abilities. Lots of things about the setting aren't really explained either, but the story is still understandable regardless. I love love love the character designs for basically all the major characters and the artist did such an expressive and beautiful job with the artwork. I want to read the rest of the manga for sure, but I have also already picked up the Soulless novel. This adaptation of Gail Carriger's Soulless is surprisingly entertaining, with a lot of lovely art and a script that gives the original work a fresh look for a new audience of readers. If you have not gotten on the teapunk bandwagon, then now is the time to do so!

"Alexia Tarabotti is laboring under a great many social tribulations. First, she has no soul. Second, she's a spinster whose father is both Italian and dead. Third, she was rudely attacked by a vampire, breaking all standards of social etiquette. Where to go from there? From bad to worse apparently, for Alexia accidentally kills the vampire -- and then the appalling Lord Maccon (loud, messy, gorgeous, and werewolf) is sent by Queen Victoria to investigate. With unexpected vampires appearing and expected vampires disappearing, everyone seems to believe Alexia responsible. Can she figure out what is actually happening to London's high society? Or will her soulless ability to negate supernatural powers prove useful or just plain embarrassing? Finally, who is the real enemy, and do they have treacle tart?"--Amazon.com, viewed February 23, 2012. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
