Ms.Honey's manga / #Adventure(10)

Mind fuckery and apocalypses. Fun art, too.

Combining one of my favourite genres of all time - adventure - and imbuing it with a beautiful, fantastical mix of fantasy, Helck delivers in terms of action, tragedy and the author themself simply radiates positivity. This reading initially started because I borrowed Helck 1-4 at a library, but then I wished to know how it continued and how it ended. To do that, I also went on the official site (where the chapters are in better order there), where the onslaught of tragedy was intermittently broken up by orderly little character adventures. This is an all-round favourite tale for it's honest message of having continual hope, dealing with life with someone beside you, and it's blatant and unapologetic lack of overly romantic love.

The plot was simple, but the execution of it was brilliant and I definitely will remember these characters fondly. I liked how everything in the world was also tied together to lend more realism to the existence of the Dungeon; plus the sketches were really cute and I'll be checking out the mangaka's drawing collection! The art was absolutely stunning and some scenes from this manga will have me coming back just to look at them.
