Awesome

Evil's return is really awesome and I'm 11 so you can't use age on this anymore cause even though it lacks words the artwork is awesome I agree with the person at the top if you new to manga you probably shouldn't get this book cause you need a strong imagination and if you're a beginner you probably don't know how to comprehend all this awesome work so of course your gonna say it sucked but if you could see the sweat, blood, and tears put into this you would see the story's soul and only then can you see how awesome this manga is (sorry I just got don't watching the whole first season of comic party) but trust me as you get more into manga then come back to this book you'll see that the more experience you have with manga the better it is(I've been reading manga for 3 whole years and watching anime for 5 so I know my stuff) so next time try to read up on your manga before you start throwing flames at them k?

Oh, it's not that bad just different

I'm surprised at the negative comments on this manga. It's not that bad, just different. I have been reading manga for a while now and I think that if you are new to reading manga, "Evil's Return" shouldn't be one of your firsts. Here's why: There isn't much dialogue compared to others and that because the manga relies on the beautiful art and your imagination. The art is really good and has a lot of feeling and the feeling of the art explains more than words. Secondly, this is a rather mature book.... the storyline is anyway. There isn't any pure nudity, just scantily clad girls (and rather busty for their age) and one too many panty shots. But this is nothing new, you get the same thing in any shojou/magical girl manga. The manga also revolves around the concept of "good vs. evil" or heaven and hell and this may upset someone who are very religious. You find the same thing in other anime/manga: the author/artist isn't exactly a Christian but their story is based on Christian themes.... there is bound to be some misunderstandings. To sum things up in a nutshell, the art is excellent and so good that dialogue is not need to explain a certain scene because the art does so. And finally this is a mature manga with mature scenes and characters (16 and up). I recommend this manga to anyone who is open-minded and is possibly an anime/manga fan. Any anime fan knows that there is more to just "Reading" manga and I feel that some titles are for the veterans. "Evil's Return" is one of them. So far there are only 3 volumes and I've enjoyed the first one enough to buy the others.

Great art work

When I finished reading this book, I had to stop and think about what I just read. Not because the book was confusing, but because there was hardly any talking. From the dialoge that was said you or at least I got that feeling that something important is about to happen. The book just cuts off in the end with out explaining what just took place the precending pages. If you want to find out what happen I would suggest you pick up volumes 1 and 2 at the same time, but since 2 has not come out as of today 8-2-04) you might have to wait awhile. The art work is great. And yes you well be looking a a half naked female most the time.
