Servamp is an excellent start to a new gem of a manga. I have hopes that it will follow the Devil's and Realist route and get animated soon, it already got a drama CD and gets tons of color pages in the JPN manga. In any case, Im glad to finally be able to read this and own it. The vampire servant story is pretty funny. Kuro, the cover character is hilarious and lazy though comes through when the time is right. His partner, Mahiru is pretty funny too with his simple get it done attitude. They have a nice interaction going on. The rest of the cast comes together nicely. There is the typical busty female though that this series like to throw in though I guess writers dont want to have an all male thing going on.In any case, the quality of the book is great, no typos, great artwork with lots of sound effects translated or redrawn (not all). The extras only include a color insert which is nice to see how Mahiru is supposed to look and a few others. I wish there was an afterword or more. There are those four panel comedy stripes too.
It's rare for us to get action shoujo in English - or any shoujo without all the fuzzy screentone - so this is a series I've been looking forward to.The main character is a conscientious boy (with the standard tragic past) who adopts an (adorable and fluffy) kitty, who turns out to actually be a (slothful and selfish) vampire. "Kuro," as the kitty-vamp is called, is nice as far as vampires go, since the rest are generally murderous and savage. Or in the case of Lust, lewd. (There's a seven-deadly-sins theme going too.)It's a promising first volume, and I look forward to the following installments!
Love love love this series! ♥♥If you are into those master-servant contract battle fantasies then this is for you!The art can be seen as shounen with also having that sense of simplicity; it makes detailed look simple! The characters are all unique, lovable and comedic; given that there will be times where it will pull on the heart strings-so beware!
Servant + Vampire = Servamp! A unique comedy/horror series from Seven Seas publishing brings us a story of a boy who decided to take a cat home from off of the street. Turns out that the cat is actually a vampire named Sleepy Ash. The first volume has a lot of interesting themes, and I am curious to see where this story goes from here. Definitely worth a shot for any fan of Shonen manga!
