Has anyone else been reading Platinum End? I just started reading it, (though it's only three chapters so far,) It's from the team that bought us Death Note and Bakuman, and is published n Shounen SQ, so monthly manga.

 

Premise seems to be, Mirai Kakehashi is a boy with a sad upbringing, and seeks to end his life, only a Angel turns up saying her job is to make him happy, and the story begins. whiile it's still too early to judge the series as it's a three chapters in, though it is three long chapter with it being published in a monthly. I'd say this feels more mature than Bakuman, and has already had some unpleasant scenes.

 

It's certainly interesting so far, having not read Death Note, but getting enough spoilers over the years, I'd say this has taken that more mature approach than Bakuman  which ended up as a typical Battle manga, where this might end up more psychological, Not usually my cup of tea, but having never given Death Note a chance I feel I need to give this a try atleast.

Well I actually got hooked on it. surprising cause I wasn't that impressed with Bakuman or Death Note although I WILL say Bakuman was interesting in that it explains how manga is created, ranked and released in tankobon form.

 

but yes It's a really twisted type of story but just what  I like overall. Well one of the things I like lol :lol: Like Both typical Shonen manga and Dark Cynical, Borderline seinen-like Shonen manga. And well, some Seinen caught my interest too :happy:

NOOOOOOOOOOOO...................... :argh: Well the the premise is similar but it's too dark to be like Ah My Goddess. I see a bit of Future Diary/Mirai Nikki in it too. Well read the first chapter and you'll see. It is disturbing

I'm reading the manga right now. I've never read or watched Death Note either, but since that series is so popular, I have some high expectations Platinum End.

The one thing that bothers me right now is Nasse's design. Makes me think she's evil for some reason or has a dark side to her.

Her moral compass is f***ed up for a Angel as well, she seems to suggest solutions that would be considered the worst path. I'm not sure if she is evil so much as the angels don't seem to have a moral compass, they seem to be in a compatition to get their candidate to win, and so far all the angels we've seen look kinda disturbing, with Nasse being the least warped looking of the four we've seen so far. There also seems to be a oddity in the candidates we've seen so far, none of them seem to be the type you'd consider for the potential role they have set out for them, infact it seems like Mirai was chosen for a particular reason and he appears to be surpressing those feelings and going against the suggestions of the angel.

 

I wonder if the real purpose of the current set up is a test for humanity with the Angels assigned to tempt the candidates.

I personally don't think she's as innocent as she seems to be, and I'm assuming the same goes for all the other angels.

It seems like the actual winners of this competition are actually the angels. The humans are most likely just the figureheads controlled by the actual angel.

Mirai has been following his moral compass so far, but with the revelation that his crush is also a God's candidate, we'll prob see him facing some challenges soon. No way teamwork will work under such circumstances. The stakes are higher than in the Hunger Games, lol.

What drew the line for me was that he specifically messed with her feelings. Stabbing her with the red arow then killing her with the white. and all she wanted was to feel safe from him. kids deserve that least of all. So yeah that killed my motivation to read

Wow I never realized how inactive this thread became after the initial chapters came out lol.  Anyway,  there are 2 pretty big announcements that are coming in regards to this series. 

 

 

1st,  much like with Death Note & Bakuman,   Obha and Obata's third series (meaning this one) is gonna get an anime adaptation set for October of this year.    Here's a quick teaser trailer: 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lastly,  The Manga Series itself is actually going to be wrapping up this upcoming Wednesday January 6th with Chapter 58, and it will have a total of 14 Volumes come the beginning of February (so pretty similar to the length as Death Note = a little less than 15 volumes).
