Manga Review: The Innocent [Paperback]


I've finished "The Innocent" by Junichi Fujisaku and YaSung Ko.

Product Description

Wrongly executed for crimes he didn't commit, a former detective is given a second chance at life. To earn that chance, though, the man now known as Ash must use the supernatural abilities with which he has been infused to prevent the deaths of other innocents. But is Ash willing to dedicate himself to helping others, or is his thirst for vengeance against those who destroyed his life and his loved ones too powerful to ignore?

My Review:

Private Detective Ash was wrongfully executed for crimes he didn't commit he is brought back to life.  To earn his second chance at life he must use his supernatural abilities to prevent the execution of other innocent lives.  He is also out for revenge against the ones who destroyed his life and his loved ones.

This manga is more geared towards the guys because of the violence and creepy bad guys. This was a very fast paced full of non-stop action and violence.  There is a really psychotic and creepy bad guy that loves to say "do you want to play?"  He also likes to cut people with his sharp knife.

Ash wants revenge against the baddies who ruined his life and his sister's by drugging her and she seems to be in a coma.  I love his superpowers and how he is able to use them to his advantage.  He is being supervised by an angel and there is a code they aren't allowed to kill anyone or else they are punished and lose their powers.

4/5

Thanks Hachette Book Group Canada for sending me this manga to review, greatly appreciated!
