I found this comic interesting because in my country, who quite believe in supernatural things, we believe there's a djinn/something else beside us. One rule in certain religion even forbid human and them to communicate. Now, the act of 'treat something non-existent as exist one' is blasphemous because it gives 'them' acknowledgment and 'they' love it. If the 'one' who attracted is a naughty one, maybe you'll see some mishap in everyday lives, but if it the evil one... well

Liked the overall story, but the translation was bordering on useless. With the amount of grammatical errors and constant swiching of REALLY important terms (such as "The dead one" being used both for sacrifice of the month and the extra) it became almost impossible to follow the plot. It's a mystery manga, correct terminology is bloody essential, I'd say.

I don't regret reading it, but I sure would have enjoyed it much more with a decent translation. I'd happily improve the English myself since I'm fairly fluent in it, but there are places where I couldn't make heads nor tails of what was actually intended to be said. You'd have to be able to read Japanese and take a look at the raws to figure that out, and I unfortunately lack that skill.

Clearly even two proofreaders wasn't enough.

''Please apology''

This was a nice read but I just couldn't get into the whole "mysterious" atmosphere it had. I was more confused than anything until the chapter he got Mei to explain everything. It was confusing and slightly frustrating more than anything up until that point.

All right, spoilers ahead with regards to how the anime compares to the manga. Overall, IMO, and I believe you guys should have the same opinion regardless, is that the anime is superior. Of course, in this spoiler I will tell all my reasons.

ok i really really hated the ending of the anime of another i mean what the shit did akazawa really have to die. I mean its okay if you want to kill all the other random characters that nobody cares about but do you have to kill my favourite character i mean what kind of heartless person kills a cute character.
I loved the manga though especially since akazawa didnt die!, i mean wasnt that such a better ending. Really i mean that was way way way way............... too may deaths(if akazawa didnt die im okay though)

You know what pissed me off the most in the anime and the manga

Never Happened
to be honest the anime ending sucks... this one is way better. It explains more too
@BearItAll so do you want him to apology? Or apologize? I'd still read it to see if there has been improvements. That's called "giving it a chance". But they still have the option to upload v2 or v3 you know.
i liked the ending for the manga more than the anime.
Kaixe-Rho


That is complete BS. If that is true then stop reading all Another scans by Kawaii corners. Yet you will still probably read Chapter 20 and 19 (if he hadn't already ) even though you rather have "no scanlation rather than attempts at English by a group that clearly doesn't speak it." If you think it makes no sense by all means go read the raw version because obviously KawaiiCorner are inept in English right? It's pretty obvious that you're reading it on your own free will yet you're criticizing free service. And not only are you criticizing it , you're being a blatant hyprocrite because you continued to read the chapters.
oh. i thought Akazawa is going to die, I saw some spoilers about it
Well I'm glad it didn't happen :)
unpredictable..
The ending was intense, pretty hard to follow and the ending was sad TT. Oh well it wasn't a bad read, very depressing though.
I read it just because of the cover. Mei is cute. Seriously.
The story is okay, the art is nice. I don't watch the anime which seems to be "blood, blood everywhere". The manga is good enough without much guro scenes (but the blood is still there) or swimsuit (but I like sukumizu too!)....

I read from wiki that there is 0th volume of this manga. Hope it will be scanlated another time. There is also a plan for the sequel of the novel which leads to "I hope the sequel of the novel is again adapted to manga."
It's still going on!
Clearly even two proofreaders wasn't enough.
Wooo twist!
to be honest, i thought that it would be the old guy that was helping them... oh well
want expecting that T_T
@iiyaya: I don't know xD maybe they thought one wasn't enought ><"
I respect scanlation.
I do not respect bullshut like "Please Apology".
The translation is completely nonsensical and more than often than not makes NO SENSE AT ALL.
It's rough, but I'd rather have no scanlation rather than attempts at English by a group that clearly doesn't speak it.
@Shiroi Even if you say that's how it is, then what's the point of the two proofreaders then?
