Bro I also need the name tell me after you find it

Oh I haven't read any novel with lack of common sense tag so i don't know. And thank you for explaining it to me.

Exactly. Good if you understand.

I've just finished reading the available chapters of Zetman, and I have to say—WOW!!! What an incredible journey! Among the superhero genre works I've explored, this stands out as something truly extraordinary. From its artwork to its characters, world-building, and above all, its story, Zetman is a masterpiece. What sets Zetman apart from others is its exceptionally well-crafted narrative. While there's often a tradition of improvisation in manga storytelling—creating characters, setting a premise, and letting the story unfold arc by arc—even though Zetman has arcs, its story is so intricately woven that everything connects and overlaps. There's no typical crescendo-resolution pattern; you really need to start from the beginning. Even after 200 chapters, you'll find flashbacks linking back to the first ones. The effort put into the storyline is remarkable, and I haven't encountered any major "loose threads" that disrupt the story's logic.

Another impressive aspect of Zetman is the world it's set in (fufufu). I can be quite picky about suspending disbelief, and I often tire of lengthy explanations about the logic of imaginary worlds that burden many adventure/sci-fi mangas. In Zetman, I didn't come across anything like that—the world and its logic work seamlessly. One fascinating element is the neo-materialism embedded in the story; there's nothing supernatural here. Everything is defined within scientific boundaries, and not even souls separated from bodies exist (at least, as explicitly stated). This isn't a central theme but rather an underlying aspect.

It's refreshing that this manga doesn't rely on existentialist themes or philosophy, focusing instead on actual storytelling. Sure, there are neo-materialistic (almost nihilistic) ethics, especially concerning what "justice" truly is and who deserves saving, but these aren't the main focus as they are in some seinen mangas.

The art is simply stunning—amazing. I can't help but feel sorry for all the hardworking assistants who must have labored day and night to trace those intricate backgrounds. Seriously, the level of detail is insane. I'd run out of superlatives trying to describe it. You should read the manga already.

What amazes me about the characters is their realism. They're portrayed with warmth and sensitivity to the human psyche. In this manga, things matter, and people don't just move on after life-changing traumatic events as if nothing happened. Even the villains have their reasons, and the non-human cast, despite their silly appearances, have great and credible backstories.

So, what more can I say? The scanlation group Evil Genius has given a tremendous gift to the English-speaking world through their work on Zetman, Berserk, and others. Now, I wish someone would license it in English so we can give something back to the mangaka himself (and his dedicated team of assistants, many of whom have autism and are obsessed with drawing massive constructions of ruined concrete).

Zetman starts off incredibly well, but as the narrative progresses, it becomes somewhat convoluted, a tad dull, and one starts to notice significant issues regarding the portrayal of women.  

Story 7/10 - The narrative begins with an impressive setup, showcasing Jin's childhood and later Kouga's, both striving for justice in their own interpretations of what it means. The deaths are impactful and resonate deeply with the reader, while the challenges faced by the protagonists are compelling. Up until this point, the story is engaging and strong. However, as it delves deeper into darker themes, although initially fitting and maintaining interest, it eventually falters. As Jin and Kouga mature, the introduction of romance seems promising, sparking curiosity, but ultimately proves to be unremarkable. Moreover, the manga continues to present problematic depictions of women. The villains, particularly Haitani, are well-crafted, yet the Amagi family and their associates become confusing and irritating. Konoha is merely portrayed as a lovesick girl, while Hanako, despite her strength, suffers from a poorly executed backstory. The ending, though disheartening, holds some semblance of logic, making it a decent, albeit nothing extraordinary, tale.

Art 8/10 - The artwork leaves a lasting impression, enhancing the dark and gritty atmosphere effectively. The depiction of female characters is commendable, and the villains possess a unique insect-like aesthetic that grows on you. Zetman truly embodies the essence of a superhero, and Kouga's design is equally impressive. Nevertheless, the fight sequences and the final monster design leave much to be desired.

Characters 7/10 - The confusion within the storyline largely stems from the complex web of characters tied to the Amagi family, leading to moments of bewilderment and boredom. The female cast shines, despite the unfortunate manner in which they are treated. Aunt Akemi stands out as a powerful and elegant figure, Hanako captivates with her charm and humor, and Konoha's tragic backstory adds depth to her character, though her infatuation with Jin feels misplaced. Mayu, too, is a remarkable character whose backstory unfortunately fades into obscurity. Jin and Kouga represent contrasting notions of justice, posing a thought-provoking question that persists throughout the series, crafting exceptional protagonists.

Enjoyment 8/10 - For those seeking a dark sci-fi manga exploring profound human questions, Zetman offers intriguing elements. Despite its mid-to-late story confusion, it delivers a solid romance, captivating art, and two outstanding main characters.

Overall 7/10 - Yes, it is a commendable manga. Although it becomes bewildering at times, rendering certain parts tedious, the presence of compelling characters like Jin, Kouga, Aunt Akemi, Hanako, and Haitani makes it a worthwhile read.

Ah Zetman... Another one of those classic seinen mangas that blend gore, death, and sexual explicitness into a single unsettling package. It was an okay manga... until you hit the part where [SENTENCE IS BLOCKED DUE TO SPOILER]. Of course... Eugh, that part made me sick to my stomach.  

So, Zetman. It offers a fresh and darker take on the concept of a superhero (think Batman but with its own unique twist).  

The storyline is fantastic and filled with mysterious elements that keep readers guessing about what’s coming next. It truly stands out as a masterpiece, presenting a narrative that's distinct in its approach and heavily sci-fi. Sort of like Guilty Crown, but less messy and even more intense.  

The characters are also intriguing, representing a diverse and unconventional group, though they do bring to mind some Batman archetypes in certain ways...  

It’s a bold story, largely driven by mystery, with a dash of comedy and a heavy dose of tragedy.  

The issue here is that it’s intended for mature audiences, and some scenes can be quite disturbing. It includes sexually explicit content, and as a seinen manga, there's plenty of gore. So if you don’t want your kid turning into Charles Lee Ray, steer clear.  

In short, Zetman is a stunningly illustrated masterpiece, but it’s a bit too much for me. It’s primarily for mature readers, and younger ones should avoid it. 8/10.
